How to break up with your team?

We have decided to join a new team for the fall season for various reason. When should I let my current team know? I was thinking of emailing them after our last game (June 11) or should I tell them before? They are requesting deposit for next year by May 31. I am not going to submit a deposit, so should I explain before or wait until they contact me? I just don't want the last few games left of the season to be awkward? Am I overthinking this? Why do I feel so guilty about it?

If you have had a decent experience and they are expecting your child to return next season, then telling them sooner would be the respectful thing to do.

Unless you feel there will some push back from the coach/club (less playing time, mistreatment of your player, etc), probably better to do it sooner than later. Like shortly after registering with the new team. Just remember the #1 rule of breakups - do it in a public place

I would wait until they contact you and let people know only if they ask you. You'll be surprised at how few people they actually contact. They get it.
