[quote=Anonymous]OP.  I have a few thoughts to consider.  If you are doing 2 private sessions per week, you guys must defiantly be dedicated and should move up and or the skills should shine through and the coaches should take notice.

1.) Are you using a private Coach organic to your club? If not, and if it's allowed, that might produce more benefit as the Coaches talk and might influence who moves up.

2.) Sometimes the extra pushy parent gets what they want.  We have family literally complain about the 3rd team loudly and just started bringing their kid to all the 2nd team practices.  -They aren't on the team yet, but the other kids like the kid, so after a month, they were invited to guest play at the end of season tournament.  Seems like they unofficially made room for the pushy parents.

3.) Some clubs do get full and moving kids around creates too much drama/ so they only bring in kids from outside the club for the top teams.   So, yes I would look at bringing your kid to practice as soon as possible to another club you are most interested in now. Don't wait for tryouts, just bring them to try the practices now if at all possible.  Just e-mail the TECH Director or DOC or Club Admin and talk up your kid and bring them out.   At 2014, your kid should be ready to make the switch to another club and understand the reason why. -Don't tell your current club anything unless you think it can be helpful in their consideration to move your kid up.

4.) Lastly, if you only go to a tryout for another club. Get there early, have your kid help the coaches set up, wear and Argentina jersey, wear neon headband w his name on it and juggle a grapefruit before the session start. Talk to the head Coach before and after practice. Otherwise, it will be hard to get noticed during an open tryout.

-Good luck and have fun![/quote]
