[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The OP was asking about a U13 player. Like most have said, go with a club that is going to help her develop and love the game, and a club where she will want to continue to play soccer when she gets older. Worry about exposure, etc. (assuming that’s what she even wants to do and play for) when she’s U15and up. If you pick the wrong club and environment now, there could possibly be no U15 to worry about. Also, when you start to look into the leagues, look into the leadership and what the league stands for. There are a lot of good resource out there, including podcasts, where you can get a feel for what each prioritizes. But again, your focus should be on the club and coach, not the league. [/quote]

Problem with today's soccer.  Want the results now vs. when it matters.  Teams next year for U15 have a pretty good surge of players that have been off the radar due to teams they have played for and are taken over positions on starting teams.  The players who thought they had position locked now have parents scrambling to get them on another team.  [/quote]
There are some teams like Rochester who will only take new players to sit on the bench, so the girls who have been with the club a long time get to start and play most of the games it happened this year. New girls joined, and took starters spots. That didn’t last for long. Parents went to the director, and complained that they have been with the club for many years, and their kids deserved to start. Guess what, the next week, and rest of the season those kids were starting again, and getting most of the play time[/quote]

Go cry about Rochester on the New York forums. Nobody cares about Rochester. They stink anyways.[/quote]
