[quote=Anonymous]You should ask whatever you want to ask. You are the customer. You are writing the (by the way significant) check. Just keep in mind:

1) Do not believe anything a coach tells you - their incentive is to sell you on the team/club

2) Don't believe anything other parents tell you - why would a parent jeopardize their kid's standing?

*If the coach knows they are leaving, or thinking about it, what happens to their playing time? Maybe they are not the star player and a new kid who could fill their slot shows up at tryouts? 
**Why not whisper to that new kid "if I make you an offer right now will you take the spot?" My kid has been asked that at several tryouts before offers go out.

[b]****[u]All because you told some other parent you don't really know your plans for next year? The juice isn't worth the squeeze[/u]...[/b]

[b]3) Do not believe what anyone on this board says, ever. [u]They are all full of shit[/u]. [/b]
