[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]But the previous posters comment is true. If you make the top two teams pull the trigger and do it.
Go to a different club before the 5th or 6th team tho, unless it is some priority to be in Arlington.All the girls do make a team there.  The only competition is about making red or white

and staying there.

So not bitterness.  It is just a fact at the bigger clubs. don't get riled up[/quote]

“The bottom travel teams are all cash cows and the club doesn't care about them at all. ”

It kinda sounds like you’re the one riled up. [/quote]

I didn't post that.  I am just acknowledged that it is true.  Many parents get it, and they aren't bitter.  You sound defensive though.[/quote]

Uggh, fine, you win. ASA is terrible, club soccer is a cash grab. OP just hide your kid in the basement until
College. [/quote]

PP. You need to relax. There are many ways to raise children, and even (wait for it) many ways to play soccer outside of ASA.

OP, in case you are wondering, by the time kids are 10 or so, families start shopping around more.  Arlington kids play for CFC in DC, Alexandria, and Boys and Girls in  Annandale, among other places. Different clubs make different choices so you pick the ne that works for you.  Or even just rec. Personally, 8seems a bit young for the craziness and pressure, but you do what makes sense among the choices you have.

I hope your family finds a way to keep this fun.[/quote]
