[quote=Anonymous]Unfortunately, soccer, volleyball, and basketball are all very competitive at the schools you listed. That said, there are freshman and JV teams for both volleyball and basketball at Yorktown and WL (I don't know about Wakefield and Meridian). While you generally still need to have skills to make freshman and JV, it's usually not as difficult. However, making varsity is a different story -- I've heard many times that juniors choose to no longer play the sport rather than be cut or stuck on JV.

Soccer is incredibly competitive at both WL and Yorktown. I've heard that both volleyball and basketball are, too, but if your DD has played she might have a chance at making the 9th grade teams. I don't know as much about Wakefield.

As a PP noted, Meridian is much smaller and often travels farther for games because of its size. The Arlington schools you listed are "Class 6", which is for the largest schools. Meridian is Class 4, which is for smaller schools.

My DD is a 9th grader at one of the schools you listed. She's played a spring sport for a long time so made the team, but for a fall sport, she did cross country and loved it. It's no cut, generally a good group of kids, and there's a lot of camaraderie. I've heard great things about crew, too, but it is pretty time-intensive. Good luck!       [/quote]
