just curious, why is there a separate thread when he is already in the young talent thread?
If you know of a good Filipino footballer or if you think your son or daughter is good enough for the Philippine football team or the PH youth team, you could start a thread in the Azkals Scout section.
Use the same format above.
Just the recent highlights from Jasper's games during the weekend. Here is the link

Is he good enough to be selected for Queensland Schoolboys or Australian Schoolboys or even maybe Brisbane Roar?
Otherwise, aim for U-18 or U-23 Azkals.
Jay didnt go for the schoolboys trial this year due to school football commitments and last year he was on crutches due to fractured ankle. Regards to Bris Roar, cant really answer that one yet? Football is finished for the year here but then he already got offers to play for men's premier reserve teams and youth state league teams for next year. He is coming home tomorrow from New Zealand with the Qld U18 elite squad and has trials on Monday and wednesday for the Ipswich representative side but not quite sure with this one coz he got athletics as well during off season as he is a 100m, 200m, 400m and hurdle runner. Would be nice to be part of the Azkal team (U18 or U23, dont know)but we need to know soon otherwise he will be off to UK or USA after 2012. He is also chosen for US college scholarship for football through NSR. My son just wants to play football.
Well winter soccer in Australia is finished (March - September), but the A-League will start next weekend (ie I know pro soccer in Australia is a summer sport so that to avoid TV clashes, game clashes with Aussie Rules, Rugby League and Rugby Union during winter months).
Now, has he been approached by Brisbane Roar yet or has he been approached by AIS yet?
Being an U18 he is now at a critical stage of being an U18 and crossing over to either the U21, U23 then the senior squad for Australia. If he can stick it with Australia, do so. Perhaps you need to talk to the coach of the QLD U18 as to what the future hold for the boys (normally, they will have contacts with the Football Federation of Australia and ask him if your son - although good at this level - is good enough to progress to the next level with either AIS, Brisbane Roar or play semi-pro soccer with a QLD state league team.
As I said, at U18 this is the critical stage...as the old adage say, this is the age where boys become men, I take it he will be in Year 12 soon and thats another milestone.
@ren.jay, what US colleges have offers out to him at the moment?
to HRK1, thanks for your input, appreciated. My hubby and my stepson is guiding him towards those path and at the moment we are just weighing things up. There is lots of politics involve with football here. He is leaning towards Uk or US and whatever he decides in the future, we are backing him. He is lucky that he's Dad is English (and a prof footballer then) and hence able to get there no problem.
to Soccerpride, havent chosen yet until next year, his sister was supposed to go to South Carolina Salkerhatchie? but decided to do her degree in physiotherapy here and play for Div 1 women's football.
Would be nice for him to share or to get involve with our country's football revolution, if it happens of course. Otherwise, he is just happy with his football and track & field.
@ren.jay, is he unable to speak of the college whom has offered him a scholarship? If so, this is highly unusual...typically U.S. students who are high school juniors or seniors are eligible for scouting, and are able to speak of potential offers...I am curious as to who these schools are who have offers out to him, mostly because may I quote you:
"Would be nice to be part of the Azkal team (U18 or U23, dont know)but we need to know soon otherwise he will be off to UK or USA after 2012. He is also chosen for US college scholarship for football through NSR."
I have a high school junior, who is currently in this position were he is finally eligible for scouting. He does not have any firm offers on the table yet, but he does have a couple of universities "engaging" him. I have seen colleges and universities make offers to high school juniors, but these scenarios are only reserved for those EXTREMELY talented players, the who's who in the youth soccer arena, typically the nations top 50...unlike basketball, American Football, or even baseball, money for soccer is a bit more scarce at your typical colleges and universities. Girls soccer tends to get more money for scholarships then boys, although this has been shifting more in the recent years with the gained popularity of the sport, here in the U.S., and of course the MLS.
I am curious as to which schools your son is getting offers from, for all of the above reasons...and because you mentioned this, I felt it was a fair question to ask...
Soccerpride, the process here in OZ as re NSR is different from over there. Athletes are selected here early and go through the talent and academic screening and if they pass then they are accepted to the NSR program. As I've said before he hasnt chosen yet as offers from colleges/universities are only given to them during their Year 12 making sure that they have or will finished their secondary schooling. His website is under construction in the NSR website if you wanna check it out. At the end of the day, it is his choice whether he wants to pursue NSR, go to UK after Y12 or stay in Oz or maybe play for the Phil, who knows? Btw. why are you so curious as to what school/s my son is getting offers from, coz at the end of the day, it is what the school can offer him that we will be interested just like what happened to his sister who had serious offers from 21 colleges/universities (but thats another story)? He is one of the chosen few selected amongst more than 200 boys who trialled in Queensland.
@ren.jay, I hope you don't take offense to this statement, because I kind of sense a bit of it in your last two posts. I am not questioning whether or not your son is a talented athlete, I am simply inquiring as to the schools who have shown interest, which in all honesty is a very fair question, especially considering you brought up this topic, in a manner that would naturally lead To the question...
If you prefer not share I resPect this, just simply state it as such. My interest is this, I love the sport, am completely supportive of the advancement opportunities available to our youth, and yes, if you put something on this forum that spikes my interest I angling to ask questions to further understand or engage. It's that simPle, no malice intended.
Good luck to your son, wherever his endeavor takes him!
