[quote=Anonymous]My 8 year old plays on a U9 rec league, and had played rec league for about 4 years and truly loves the sport. He is a decent player. He's not like "wow stop what youre doing and watch this kid" amazing, but he is noticeably better than most kids on his team. He has been selected for the various all star tournaments. He is fast and strong and enthusiastic but his foot skills are mediocre in my opinion. He is thus better suited to defense and he also loves goalie. He is asking us about when he can join a travel team. His friends from school play on travel leagues. Ive done some research but am confused about what to do next. We live in Fairfax, near Vienna. I am willing to pay and commit time if this is his passion. But I don't even know where to start for tryouts, what to look for and ask to ensure its a good team, etc.

It is more important to me that he has fun, has good coaches, and learns skills than it is that he plays for a top team. With our location, and his current skill level, what league would you recommend? And are tryouts always in the spring, meaning this would be his last rec season if we pursue this?

Give me all of the stupid question detials here. And if your advice is to stick with rec, give me that too! Thank you![/quote]
