[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’ve seen people say you don’t want to be on team 5 or 6. Can someone give me more details on why? How does the experience on the last team compare to ADP, for example?[/quote]

If you have committed families and a great coach, then you are going to have a good year.   I would also say being in actual travel, even team 5 or 6 will offer better development over just ADP as they practice more and play more games.

The problems start, and this is with any club, is the families start to skip out on practices, show up right before kickoff, they don't want to pay team fees for tournaments and sometimes the coach is not the best.  You also have families who either just want to go back Rec and decided travel is not for them or want to move up team levels and grumble.  -So, it is hard to get team unity.

You need a good coach and good team manager to have a good year.  For a lot of families it's fine, but it can be tough.

It also depends what you are looking for.  Some families want to move up teams, but no one on the team wants to do extra training or winter futsal for example.  If you want to do multiple sports and not really worry about team levels, then the lower teams will be fine!  [/quote]

Multi-sports athletes on top team have a lower priority? Not merit based? [/quote]
