Not Everyone Can Become Professional Players
The rules on facilities that Indonesian soccer clubs must provide for youth players are not yet standardized.
The dream to become a professional soccer player and to play for his favorite club prompted Seno, a 16-year-old senior high school student in West Java, to temporarily leave school last year to join the Persatuan Sepakbola Indonesia (Persib) Bandung Academy training camp from August to December.
While at the training camp run by the Bandung-based soccer club, Seno trained for the Persib U-17 team for the Soe-Ratin Cup competition as a noncontractual player.
