[quote=Anonymous]We are new to the soccer world.  So we are grateful to your advice.

We have an enthusiastic, motivated and highly capable 1st grader soccer player.  Our hope is that he continues to grow in love of the game, develop new skills, and have fun.

He has shown to be one of the better players in his rec league.  He will play in this league in the Spring.

We'd love advice for when we should start thinking about him moving past rec soccer?  Or should we be happy with rec soccer for a few more years, considering he loves other sports too like basketball and baseball.   Although he is good at these other sports, we feel that soccer is where he might best excel based upon speed, footwork, and knowing where to be.  None of these skills he got from either of me or my wife, but it's a joy to watch :)

Also, are there leagues that you'd recommend?  He currently plays Stoddert.  He also tried DCYFC which he liked, but it was hard because he didn't know any of the other players.

Thanks, in advance!
