[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m literally the farthest from an insane soccer parent. I’m trying to learn from the more knowledgeable people if there is a reason to leave our small club and go to a large one. Or if we should stay with what we know. That’s it. As I said, my daughter is not college caliber (not a high level college anyhow), and she is a motivated and pretty good player. I don’t know the name of the position she typically plays. [/quote]

Size of club does not really matter. It is the coach, the other players, and the logistics.

1) Coach - is he/she a good teacher of the game and a good person that loves working with kids?  If so, then check that box. 
2) Players - are they a good fit for your kid and are at least a third of them better at soccer than your kid currently?  If so, check that box. You want your kid to be challenged but not totally overmatched. 
3) Logisitcs - you said she is not super elite. Therefore, is the practice facility within 15-30 minutes drive?  If so, then check that box.

Good luck and even if you do switch you can go back if it does not work out. Try it for a year. [/quote]
