[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My daughter tried out for travel and made it, but barely (the last team).  For all I know they may have accepted everyone.  I’m trying to decide whether to let her do it or hold out and try for ADP.  Does anyone have a sense of how competitive ADP is?  I don’t know that she’d make it — we may have gotten lucky getting on the travel team.  She could always stick with her rec team if neither works out, but I think we’ll be losing a good part of her rec team to ADP this year.  Any advice?  Our goals at this point are for her to be a part of a fun team and to become a better player— she likes soccer but I wouldn’t say she has a future as a college soccer star...[/quote]

To be honest. More than a few of these "stars" at u13-15 flame out or just quit. Kids wont be who they are at age 10. They all develop at different rates. If your child wants to give travel an honest go its not a bad idea to do so. My daughter was in a similar spot as you when she was around that age. We went ahead and tried it out, she loved it and now is getting looks from scouts. Everyone is different but I would give it a go.[/quote]
