[quote=Anonymous]Good god. Why all the vitriole? OP: no, I did not. I did, however switch my son to a different travel club because I didn't like the coach. If he woke up tomorrow and said, "mom, I really want to achieve x, and I need some extra training for that", I would stall to make sure he really meant it and the hire that person. Also, looking back at my son's first travel tryout, he was woefully outclassed by the experience of the other kids and at a disadvantage because of the simple fact that his local rec team had been pretty crappy. As a parent, I had failed to find him the right opportunities early on for the kind of player he could have been, and it mattered. In retrospect, a few months of private coaching would have been money well spent. Travel soccer brings him joy. There you go. [/quote]
