Soccer tips for scrub like me please .. lol

   
I'm 15 and i love soccer! i practice everyday for 2-3 hrs a day, sometimes only for 1 hr because of so much amount of homeworks. This is my second and half year playing soccer and I can see that ive been improving so much over the years. But I still dont have enough experience in soccer since I only played in a house leauge and my high school team in my freshman year. I feel like im behind a lot of my friends in soccer since most of them are in div 1 team clubs atm. So im trying out for one actually. Another thing im worried about is the money for tournaments and the travel team fees. Its just make me frustrated and nothing i can do about because the fees( what if more than 500$!! how can i afford lol) Anyway im training right now for that team tryouts next week and my schools in like next month so im lookin forward to that =]. I just want to know if its too late for me to have a shot at becoming pro. I enjoy playing soccer and want to make something big out of it, i know all of you would like the same lol.
   
Firstly, welcome to expert football, stick around and post well.

It is not too late to go pro but you have to work really hard at it to acheive it.

Play pick up games when you can with friends etc, that will help you improve a lot.

If u post what u feel your weaknesses are in your game, we will be able to help you a lot better.

Zezima, don't worry. As mint said, hard work can go a long way.

I'd suggest to begin a schedule that not only focuses on fundamentals, but on fitness and tactics.

Fundamentals:
Wall Drills - Every single professional player has spent a significant amount of time playing against a wall. You should too.
My Basic Technique Guide
Everything from this page
Dribbling


Strategy:
The Basics - Playing smart is the best way to play.
Find your position - Learn how to play every position, but specialize in one.
Field Vision - being able to find your teammates and position yourself effectively.
Composure - Your team needs you to be able to contribute to the game.
Team Tactics- Remember that you aren't the only one on the field. A winning team is one that communicates well, moves off the ball for support, and knows the team's overallPlaying style
Defense


Fitness:
Speed and Agility
Everything else on this page
Upper strength

Again, as mint said, post your +'s and -'s. However, first read these two pages:
How to create a training routine
and
Getting the most out of training
