Another find by zizouAnson Dorrance on the Girls Academy, ENCL and his fears of over-bureaucratic American soccerwww.socceramerica.com/article/68082/anson-dorrance-on-the-girls-academy-encl-and-his.html?c=49203#replySA: What are your concerns about the future of U.S. women’s and girls soccer? ANSON DORRANCE: I have a fear that if we become too bureaucratic and too structured we’ll have this homogeneity that will end up hurting us. I like when someone disagrees with me, who plays a different style, who wants to win a different way, because I’m going to learn something playing against that person. My huge fear is that we’re following the path of what’s happened in Holland recently. The Dutch are very concerned about the fact that they’re not developing elite players anymore. And what they’ve sorted out is that at the core of this problem is they started this structured program where everyone has to play this certain system. You have to follow this rule, you have to follow that rule, you have play this system, you have to play that style. I think a part of it is the over-bureaucratic holds and laws and rules about systems they have had to play with and this sort of top-down structure – and I have this fear it’s heading our way.
