In this episode of The Inside Scoop, I dig into a question that stirred up plenty of debate in our Anytime Soccer Training Facebook group: Are kids more likely to go pro if their parents set that goal early on?
It’s a thought exercise, not a prediction—but it opens up big conversations about parenting, expectations, and how much influence we really have on our children’s soccer journeys. I share my perspective as both a soccer dad and coach, why discipline and engagement matter, and why we also have to stay reflective about our behavior as parents.
Tune in, think it through with me, and let me know where you’d put your million-dollar bet.
