[quote=Ihatedumbsoccerparents][quote=Mdmom22]OP here. Thank you everyone! So it sounds like big clubs are responsive to an email asking to practice? We know a former coach at one of the clubs we're interested and he said he'll arrange it for us but the other ones, we have no contacts/connection. I assume they get lots of similar emails and I was wondering what information they need to see in these emails? I'm assuming where the kid currently plays at and what their soccer background is? Any thing else? Do they care what the kids' goals are, etc.? For context, I have one kid who is hoping to make it to a top team and another who is likely going to be on a B/C squad depending on how many teams the age group fields. [/quote] I just sent an email to the club ( 6 months ago) I was interested in letting them know I was interested in joining their ECNL team. My DD was invited to a practice and I was told to bring her to as many practices as possible before next year’s tryouts. There are politics involved in joining competitive teams, IMO my DD not only needs to win the coach over but the players as well.... It is difficult to juggle HS, club, and prospective new club.....I told my DD she has until next May to decide what team she wants to join....and if it’s with the new club she needs to understand her role....50% playing time, 80 minutes, 10 minute sub...I told her 50-60 minutes is ideal to showcase her talents...if she can’t get that on the new club...it will make sense to stay where she is at. She is only interested in joining a different club because her club is EDP not Ecnl.[/quote]
