[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My DD is new to MOCO and only did their invite-only pre-tryout clinics. She has never been to MOCO's Fall clinic or Rec sessions before. Last season, she was a mid-tier club player, but she did a bunch of summer camps, rec leagues, and clinics to prep for this year. She liked the vibe at MOCO from the pre-tryout clinic, so we went to every clinic we got invited to. I could tell some of the coaches were keeping an eye on her, and a few even came up to ask her questions. I thought she might have a shot at making the team.

At tryouts, she started on a lower court (that’s what she told me), but she was quickly moved to the higher court and stayed there the rest of the time. She said there was a lot of movement in the courts, with kids moving back and forth as directed by coaches. It was an intense, long tryout, and coaches told the players that they wanted to see how their mindsets and attitudes changed as they got tired.

My DD was feeling pretty good afterward, and the next day she got an offer from MOCO (plus a waitlist spot for the upper team). Despite some previous negative comments about MOCO, our experience has been great so far with how they split up practice teams, their coaching style, and how they encourage positive attitudes. I really feel like MOCO is looking for players (AND parents) who get their volleyball philosophy.[/quote]

Parent who had 2 girls play for MOCO: Make sure you come back at the end of the season and let us know what the experience was, both for your girl as a player and you as a parent. I hope your experience is better than ours, but I'm not holding my breath.[/quote]
