[quote=Anonymous]My DD played for MOCO for several seasons and had a generally positive experience. With respect to teams having "mean girls", these are groups of mostly teenage girls and mini-cliques and "mean girl" behavior exist to some degree on almost any team, including MOCO. Hopefully coaches and other responsible adults intervene before things become harmful. As with any club, there is variability between the quality of coaching and players between age groups and teams, but overall MOCO is a solid club with competitive teams.

I'm guessing that the rise in popularity of volleyball and the fact that MOCO is one of the few clubs who practices in MD inside the Beltway and is convenient to NW DC has resulted in the number of athletes being interested in the club increasing as well. The predictable result of this is that MOCO should have more skilled players to select for their teams meaning they will be more competitive. The flip side of course is that if you're DD is new to volleyball or less skilled than her peers, the likelihood of making a team goes down. Also, like any club that's been around for awhile, there are core groups of players who've been together on a team for several seasons who understandably will make up a large portion of the players that get offers this year meaning only a few spots are truly open on many teams.

Best of luck to everyone at tryouts this weekend! [/quote]
