Who is on the selection committee and how are players chosen?

Coaches nominate players. Teams are separated East and West depending on their geographical location. A group of coaches from all divisions and parts of the state discuss the players and select who they feel are the top 20 of all nominated on each side.

That doesn't answer the question...who is on the selection committee? I know that each division is represented on the committee, but who are the coaches on the committee?

How can the process possibly be unbiased when coaches are discussing/choosing nominees from their own HS or Club program. 🤔

Since most schools, I would think, nominate kids then it would be very difficult to find enough coaches that do not have a HS kid they coach nominated.

It would be nice if the media would do it but they do not really follow HS soccer.

Most of the players know who should be on these teams. They always get a good laugh when the teams (All State, All District, All Metro etc) are announced. Unless of course they are one of the players left off the team.

This is an example of why truly knowledgeable coaches at a collegiate level take LA soccer as a joke. Most don't recruit from this state bc they don't see the most talent on the field. It's about who you know and what school you're at.

It's about who you know and what school you're at. I think you’re a little off base. I’m not sure that I’ve come across a high school coach that is willing to leave their most talented players on the bench just because of who the poorly skilled players parents know

College coaches don't look at All Star, All District, All Metro etc. Most of the players don't care about them either. As I said earlier, they know who the best players are. The ones that do care... parents (and some coaches). That's why the teams can look so ridiculous sometimes. BTW I have no clue who made the All-Star teams. I do know they won't contain the 40 best seniors in the state though.

If it makes you feel better I was once a Georgia State All Star and that got me to the role of Gallstar. Reliving my glory days on a chat board in South Louisiana. College coaches at any high school soccer event is laughable. In Georgia the very best don’t even mess with the high school sports any more. Most of the bigger clubs frown upon it. Celebrate what you love about your child by saying these simple words. Son or daughter I loved watching you play as the game concludes. Start it with Son or Daughter I love watching you play. They’re gonna do their personal best and the real reward obtained will come from how they feel about their play. I don’t think anyone that selected me as an Allstar knew that I was not giving it my all. Only I live with this. A coaches request should be give me all you have and you win. The conclusion is only you know within your heart if you won today or not.
Pretty simple. The coaching is done in sessions away from the test it’s called practice.
The state finals should be the all stars vs my Wolves!
