[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hello,

Our oldest DD is only in 1st grade and plays rec soccer.   While she seems to like it she doesn't love it, so we didn't even think about travel soccer.  She seemed receptive to trying ADP.  Since she has a fall birthday, she will be with the 2011 girls (many of whom are in 2nd grade already).  It looks like most of her closest friends will be a year behind her since they mostly have 2012 birthdays.

Can someone tell me what tryouts are like?  What are they looking for?  Is it really competitive?  She seems some where in the middle of the pack during the games I've seen. Is it worth it to do ADP or should she stick with rec?  While, I'm not crazy about the idea of doing soccer 3 times a week, it sounds like it could really help her develop her individual skills.

I thought I read on one of the prior postings in this forum that some girls do both ADP and rec.  is this true?   TIA.[/quote]

At this age coaches are just looking for kids who can listen and take direction, control the ball and work hard. [/quote]
