Thanks so much! Appreciate the info.

Does anyone know approximately how many slots they were trying to fill across the teams? I heard that it was only a handful. Thanks.

Any intel on the U12 girls tryouts? It's early but I'm curious whether they've started reaching out to players to join practice. It sounds like that process happened quickly last week. Thanks.

Not sure about OP. I am interested in U13.

Bump. I'm also curious about this question.

I'm not sure how common this is, but we've had two kids who played up- one regularly, the other on occasion.

OP- You mentioned your kid is bored in their age group. Have you considered joining a more challenging team (on age level)?

How about for pre-ECNL/GA ages? There were a few references to Arlington for younger girls in the initial comments but would welcome thoughts on U10-U12 clubs and coaches.

Bump. Curious what the OP decided and how this season has gone.

OP here. Thanks for all of the helpful responses! We'll check out the Ajax camp, too.

NoYou- I agree! This is kind of a tough ask and experience will vary. That being said, we are interested in trying something new -with good coaching- and would like to hear about other families' experiences. Thanks!

Thanks so much! This is terrific. Our kids also play travel, but have only tried the local clubs and DCU so far. They did not like the DCU camp, but I think that the experience may differ based on location or attendees that particular week. They've enjoyed some of the smaller, local camps (DCYFC, FourSoccer) with friends over the past couple of summers.

I am interested in learning about experiences (good/bad) with soccer summer camp for upper elementary and middle school. I've read good things about Dutch Soccer School in the Forum. Any recent experiences? I would also like to hear about experiences with some of the team affiliated camps (e.g., Real Madrid, Arsenal, PSG). Thanks.
