[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I know classic/select teams that will destroy most travel teams and I have seen plenty of classic/select players that have shown up at u13 or u14 tryouts and displaced kids that have been playing travel for 4+ years. [/quote] The second part may be true but not the first part. There's a very low bar for Classic and even in the highest division the teams don't have enough consistency. There may be 1-2 good players that dominate that team and make it the top ranked team. Our child plays for one of the top boys U11 Classic teams this year and they were bigger than the other kids, but still couldn't play soccer. They did not have the soccer IQ and skills of my DD's select team at the same age. They won because they could break through the lines and globs of kids, like American football. DD is now on a travel team and I don't see a huge difference from select.[/quote]
