[quote=Anonymous]It will be hard to keep your DD interested in volleyball after one season of rec. We ended up doing more than one year because we were unaware of the club scene and missed the tryouts. The rec leagues mix the players to balance the teams in terms of skill. They want competitive games, not one team that destroys the others. That means constant reshuffle of players, with beginners joining every new session (~3 months). No matter how positive you try to stay, it is clear that the games are lost by inexperienced players, despite the best efforts of the players with more experience. You won't see much of a growth after 1 year of rec.

This is where you want to look for options that give your DD some growth options. You discover clubs and you will realize that your DD (who was the advanced player in rec) is not even an intermediate club player. The rec rotation that you thought was complicated turns out to be nothing compared to how volleyball is played in club. Unless she is tall and athletic, se will end up in a mediocre club at best. If you believe she will stick with volleyball, your best option is to start club as soon as possible. The instruction is better and there will be fewer bad habits to correct. [/quote]
