[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Coaches talk to each other. That's more likely the source. A more respectful route would be to give your coach a heads up that your kid will be trying out elsewhere. [/quote]

We had a coach that actively threatened players about trying out elsewhere.  The club also was known to black ball kids that did.

The real kicker is that they afforded no such courtesy to the kids.  They would cut or demote without impunity or a heads-up---even kids that played/not bench players.

If your product is so good, you would welcome players the opportunity to check out the competition---not try to keep them there by threat.

When parents are paying $3k-10k for a team, they should shop around and re-evaluate every single year.  Is the coaching good?  Is this still the appropriate level of challenge? Is my kid growing here?  How are training sessions?

Clubs have zero loyalty to kids, so they should next expect loyalty back.

If they are gossiping about you, it's because they aren't good enough to earn your spot so want to spread sh*t to try to take it the coward's way.[/quote]
