[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]By doing this, Stoddert  is trying to not lose kids.  They will require the deposit and contract before the other clubs even have tryouts.  
They’re tired of losing kids to other clubs, although this isn’t the way to retain them.  [/quote]

This probably plays into it, but I don't have the sense that many boys leave until U15, when there is apparently a major drop in the quality of coaching and in general organization. We were told that they were trying to fix the high school age groups, but some parents and kids we know at that level have said nothing has changed. Overall we have been happy with the younger age groups, and we hear great things about U13/14. I don't look forward to a longer commute for another club by 8th or 9th grade.

I don't know anything about the girls' side so can't comment. [/quote]

Most of the really good boys in our age group left before U15.[/quote]

Where do they go in general?[/quote]

Bethesda, Arlington, McLean, DC United [/quote]
