[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]At U11-U12 McLeans top team is NCSL. And parents are NOT happy. At the other age groups McLeans 3rd and 4th teams are playing NCSL which is appropriate.[/quote]

What's an "appropriate" level of competition? As others have pointed out, they went 6-2-1, not 9-0. The important thing at that age is to play, and keep learning. People worry too much about things that don't matter.

If you think your DS isn't getting "appropriate" competition, take him to DC United and see what they can do with him. Or go to Europe.

Actually the U11 Green team was 2-6-1. Sounds like competition is better than appropriate for them.[/quote]

And that it at an age when many top teams within U9-10 NCSL have transitioned either to VPL (PWSI, GFR) or CCL (Alexandria). There is substantial variation in league and team quality within leagues, between divisions, and across ages within specific clubs, especially at these ages. Unless they are running the table at the top division within their league, they are probably fine where they are. If player is demonstrably better than everybody on that team, go to the DAs, as PP suggested. [/quote]
