[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A Metro positional clinic changed DD's volleyball trajectory.  It was a reality check, making us realize she wasn't as good as we thought she was, and it allowed us to reset expectations as to which clubs to try out for.  We realized she was a latecomer and there were kids with many years of experience ahead of her.[/quote]

This is a good one and we had a similar experience. We signed up for a series of Metro clinics and the reality hit really hard. I thought that any team in the region would be lucky to have my rec player on their roster, so we decided to try out for Metro Travel because many of the other clubs were too weak to even consider. It didn't take more than 15 minutes during the first clinic to realize that the money we paid for tryouts were wasted. The MVSA tryout didn't go according to the plan either, so we had to rethink our strategy during the make-up tryouts. I am still laughing at myself for that clueless first year strategy.

I bet you do understand that this was not what the OP meant with that question, but I personally really appreciated the humor in your answer. [/quote]
