I think the case is, parents will send their children to clubs of family members or friends or if the child is old enough, he'll pick to go where his friends play. Not sure if parents nowadays are checking up on the league tables on underage and then deciding which club their son plays for. This should then give clubs a good basis to work on, especially with the new rule brought in about transferring u18, this means that if there are any losses of players from clubs, then the club has only themselves to blame, for lack of matches/poor coaching. However, overall, i think the standard of coaching is improving in a number of clubs, and needs to built upon.
