[quote=Anonymous]Juniors solves for a gap in the U-8 development market in this areas.

If your kid wants to play travel it’s a great program to teach development skills.As a parent you can test the waters a bit to see if the travel commitment (3 practices a week, games etc), is for you.

If you don't want to pay for technical training and your are fine doing intermittent travel type training (aling side rec coached by parents), there are other programs that can solve your need at many other local clubs.

However, Juniors  fills a pretty good niche for those who spent enough time in rec to appreciate the parent volunteer coaches who give their time,  but also recognize their kid wasnt getting any real soccer development (and in some cases was building bad habits).

Juniors had a big impact on my son’s soccer IQ and technical skills. It also undid some of the bad rec habits so that when it came time for travel he made a good team.

Our year there were about 70 who tried out and @ 42 who made—so those that wound up in the program were the best from rec. I imagine that fluctuates year to year which I suppose could impact experience...

All in all I definitely think we got our money’s worth on this one...and I would make the same decision...
