OP here. No our son is a 2010.

Any hints on how to find a good coach? We’ve been in a number of different rec leagues, but Have not found a good coaching match for DS.

Any recommendations for a specific coach or league would be great.

You should take the kid to tryouts. If you are in shirlington, you can try Alexandria. The U9-10 coaches were uniformly good in our experience and wonderful with kids. I think Arlington tryouts are almost over, otherwise they would be another option with good coaches. Slightly different vibe with the parents, kids and club generally. [/quote]

We are in Alexandria and my son plays for them.  I agree that the coaches are good with the kids and know a lot about soccer.
However, based on your description of your son, you should likely expect that he will be placed on a lower-level team in Alexandria.   My son is very similar, and plays on a lower level team.   We are totally fine with that and the coaching is no different.  I will say that some of the kids on the team seem less committed to coming to practices and games than on the higher level teams, which I view as a minor issue for practices, but somewhat frustrating for games (being worried that we will forfeit).   Other than that, we have no complaints and are happy.[/quote]
