[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]my kiddoe's BFF was on Academy last year and tried out there/MOCO this year and hands-down chose Academy. Kiddoe got much better over the past year and loves the environment. [/quote]
OMG, there's the parent of an Academy player's BFF! We are missing a couple of grandparents, uncles / aunts, and some distant relatives who live overseas to testify just how great Academy is. [/quote]

I think you are suggesting that there's sock puppeting going on.  I'm pretty sure that there are three of us parents posting (could be two, could be four, but my guess is three).  The "downside" of last years 13U team is pretty obvious -- they got crushed repeatedly!  But I think they won at least once, they came close a bunch of times, and most of the girls learned a lot, made some friends, and had fun.  My kid did clinics at three other clubs, but really felt strongly about returning to her Academy team, so that's where we landed.  It's also not far from our house for practices, so that is a major win for me!  A PP posted about the Coach starting the season warning the girls that she was putting them in with better teams for tournaments, so they should expect to lose a lot, but also to learn a lot.  I appreciated that honesty and the philosophy that there's often a lot to learn in losing.  I'm hoping this year will have some more wins, but so long as my kid is having fun and learning the sport, I'm fine with it either way.  My kid met two girls at the try-outs that she thought were really nice, so she's hoping they join!  If you're already scouting your spot on the Nebraska team, it's probably not for you, though.
