This Fall, PGE will be sponsoring Fremont YSC, their donation going towards our Financial Aid program; a program to help support any family in need of financial assistance.
The US pay to play model should not prevent anyone from participating in youth sports, and when not taken advantage of can help provide all players involved with a rewarding experience without the stress and anxiety of not being able to participate.

Development vs Winning
The youth soccer landscape has taken a sad turn to the performance and winning culture which is best suited to adult sports. Ironically in the US, this is flipped, with a closed league at men’s and woman’s elite level where there is no promotion or relegation; yet kids as young as 11 put into environment’s where promotion and relegation are the focus… outcome orientated.
There is a plethora of research which supports the need for process in youth learning, where deep learning can be achieved through empowering individuals to become decision makers and creative, requiring risk and freedom to make mistakes. This is robbed from the kids when the outcome is priority.
The challenge is, when you’re against the youth sport business with extensive resources in marketing and prey on the parents FOMO, it’s a difficult message to ask for patience.
