Although there is a lot of nonsense to wade through on DCUM, a few years into Club Volleyball, I generally wish I had paid more attention to the negative experiences repeatedly shared about certain club leadership.  This is true across multiple clubs. I should also have paid attention to how many coaches have left an organization in recent years, only to keep coaching somewhere else locally.  I could have saved my child a lot of heartaches and wasted time.

Yes we're pretty new to all this and paying rapt attention, though also taking a lot of things with huge sacks of salt.  But already, this year being our first round of doing the tryout circuit, I'm so grateful for these conversations, because reading here made us tryout for a specific club we knew nothing about, then also the popular ones, and when faced with a choice (we know, we're super lucky), we'd seen enough we loved in the less popular club (or lower tiered club) that we made a choice that - just going on general reputation, most people would not have made. And we hope we're setting our DD up for better coaching and a better all around experience in her first more intense year of club playing.

So thank you to everyone who weighs in!  Even the few kinda "too axe-to-grind-y" posts are helpful in several ways.  There is a LOT of experience here, and those of us newer to all this chaos truly can benefit from your wisdom, so thank you![/quote]
