My intentions: to play varsity soccer at U of T.
I'll be a freshman this fall and my friend who's a graduate thinks I could make it. He gave me the advice of bulking up / stronger. His opinion is that U of T wants taller players and he told me his friend who's similar to me in skill didn't make the final cut because he was small. He said he was my height and weighed 150 lbs.
Me: 130 lbs , 5'7
Now, I'm not sure what he says is true. Strength would definetly improve me slightly, but if I weighed more, wouldn't I become slower? Speed is something I am not willing to give up.
What is my ideal weight?
