A new Academy, that will be Free, starting this summer! https://www.fortworthvaqueros.com/news_article/show/843663?referrer_id=3279232-news-collector

The Fort Worth Vaqueros, an NPSL team, are starting with a team each of 2009, 2010, 2011, & 2012 aged players. Apparently, they plan to enter the USSDA once the 09s reach U12.

Mark Snell is the Academy Director

The Vaqueros are an interesting story. I think they are trying to do a lot of good things over there.

FC Dallas does a great job at chasing away top coach talent. Happy to see coach Snell excelling at what he does best.

This could turn into something really good. I am excited to see Mark at it again as the Academy Director.

I had a chance to speak with Coach Mark after one of his last matches in charge of the Vaqueros 1st team & when I asked him about the Academy his face lit up; he was so excited to get started!

Agree, this should be good - we need better access to 1st teams & less of a monopoly on talent.
