[quote=Cruzado]One of my boys played Super Y soccer at that age group last summer, and will do so again this summer. He enjoyed it.

The level of competition was higher than what you find in a typical rec-league; most of the players seem to be kids who play for travel teams during the fall/spring and want to keep playing during the summer. Of course, since there are a mix of players from different teams/clubs that come together to form Super Y teams, there isn't the same team-cohesion and so overall team play is probably not at the same high level as you find in most travel teams by the end of the spring season.

Invariably, some kids will be missing practices/games because of family vacations (the rosters are oversized to compensate for this) so that also plays a role in overall team cohesion.

Nonetheless, I found it to be a worthwhile experience for kids who really love soccer and want to play during the summer. I try to think of it as a substitute for playing pickup games (which isn't really an option these days) -- a few practices a week, and one game a week, so about 4-5 hours of soccer per week.[/quote]
