    Seed: I was on several advanced soccer teams during my youth. Tryouts were tough and I'm sure my parents payed a fortune. Things got very serious. We were expected to attend (expensive) camps off season with the team, practice everyday, games every weekend with as many tournaments as we could get in to. We had a tough coach, assistant coach and a trainer that played professionally in England. We were pushed to tryout for the olympic development team. I hated it at the time because of the pressure but looking back I remember having a lot of fun. The only reason I stopped was that the coach told me to quit skating (my favorite thing at the time) because I kept having injuries from it. That pissed me off and I quit soccer instead.
