[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]So what I have heard most of the clubs are looking at a 20- 30% decrease in returning players. Reach out to the clubs

That's what I heard too, yet not one kid on my son's team got an offer to move up to the next level team. I guess maybe they plan to fill from the outside, and then reach out to current players to move up if that doesn't work.

There is usually a reason why they are on the 2nd team. Its not because of numbers its more because of talent. I coached at 2 different clubs for over 13 years. The truth is that the 2nd team is a money maker and not looked at too serious for development.

Hey, if they can get very top level players from elsewhere to commit and give them money at this point, more power to them. We're on the second to top of five teams, so if they can choose to be that picky, that's fine. But I suspect at the end of the day they can't.

Our club told us there will be no moves up or down until fall when they plan on having the age group practice together. Given my child is in a middle school age group, this makes sense to me, as some kids will have changed a lot from March when they last played to late summer when play picks up. Typically two to four players move up per team[/quote]

Maybe that will happen for us to.  I hope it is the top 4.  My kid is in that group but not the top 2.[/quote]

Usually they only move up those kids when the players on field grow from 7-9 or 9-11. and only if they can't recruit 1st level team players from outside the club[/quote]
