Soccer Talk at Staples

Staples High School Thursday night hosted the “Choices and Challenges: The Changing Face of High School Soccer” forum. Sponsored by the Staples boys soccer program, Top of the Hill Team and Westport Soccer Association, it drew almost 200 players and parents from around the state to the Staples auditorium. College coaches, high school and club coaches, and alumni discussed a wide range of topics, all stemming from a recent decision by the U.S. Soccer Federation that prohibits Development Academy players from playing high school soccer.
