[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My child is dual rostered and I'm not really happy with the results.

Despite playing at a level "better than half the Academy team" according to the coaches' feedback, they aren't going to open a full spot unless someone is a "game-changer". They don't want the political flack of sending someone down for someone who his just mid-roster. As a result, we train with the higher team but when the roster is released each weekend we're playing with our original, lower club.

This comes back to haunt my child who works their butt off at the higher level but gets snide comments from other players like "yea that was a good move but you still aren't going to be on the team this weekend". The self-confidence hit has been pretty hard and some of his teammates on the higher team are all too willing to rub it in. Parents are polite but not really welcoming (especially the parent of the kid my child is competing with--they avoid me at all events).

We just had tryouts and if they are truly ability based, our child should be moving up. If we are stuck in the same situation next year we will switch clubs (we have a DA offer from another club already). [/quote]

Shouldn’t you already have an offer by now?[/quote]
