[quote=Anonymous]We just had to make this decision, but for U12. We chose the A team at the smaller club. But the smaller club plays in the same league as the larger ones, and U13 is when kids start going off to higher level teams and moving around a lot anyway, so maybe not as big of a difference. At U10 I think B at a large club could be good IF the coaches in the age group are uniformly good AND the club is known for moving kids up and down as they develop. I would really try to find those things out from parents currently at the club if you can. A large club who never moves kids around because of pushy parents could mean that your kid is stuck on B no matter how good they get which can be very frustrating. Pay attention to whether the large club is likely to have more chill parents or the crazy striver parents. It is often closely related to the level of affluence in the immediate area. [/quote]
