OP why do you think rec coach is biased? [/quote]

Sorry, I should have been more clear.

The coach is someone he and I are both close to, outside of soccer.  So, the fact that the coach is calling me to tell me "he's great, he has so much potential, you should have seen his save in the second half!"  doesn't carry as much weight in my mind, as it would if it was a new coach calling me after one game to tell me my kid is really good.

There is also PPA and Potomac Soccer.  Go to a few spring practices at the various clubs and see what you like.  Think about how serious of an environment you want your kid to play in. Going to one club may burn him out for various reasons. Find a club and coach that supports the environment you want you dc to be in. [/quote]

I thought Montgomery County was limiting spectators to one per kid.  How would he go to practices at various clubs?

How would I know how serious an environment is?  [/quote]

You have to contact the club/team to request to practice with a team to see if its a good fit. And you can ask them how mean teams they have and what number team you're working with so you'll know if its A team ot C team

And then, is that the try out?  Or does he also go to try outs?  If he goes to a practice will the coach say "Don't try out" if it's way over his head?  Or does he need to try out for multiple levels for each club?

Sorry, I know I seem really clueless.  [/quote]
