[quote=Anonymous]Of course you can, OP. Parents need to think about what is best for the child. No one else can prioritize your child the way you can. Also, if you notice it you can be sure the coaches notice it, too. Generally coaches are very reluctant to move a kid down when he was promised the higher team because most parents go crazy. I have been on teams when coaches have repeatedly told parents (and I know this because the parents are friends of mine) that they think it would be better for the child's development to be on the lower team and the parents 1) ignore it/behave like the coach is just one random opinion 2) don't recognize that their child is not keeping up 3) plot to demand their money back if the child is "demoted" 4) are then livid when the child doesn't start and gets limited playing time. My guess is that the coaches will genuinely appreciate someone who has an objective view of their child's performance and will likely be happy to make the move.[/quote]
