Choice. You and your kid (the kid, really...us parents are along for the journey) have a choice. Your kid can trial at other clubs and make the team there. If your kid does not have that choice or can't make another team, then there's really no room to be upset with the process everyone is up in arms about. It sucks, yes, but it is what it is. Not trying to hurl grenades, but that's where some of us are in all of this.

And as far as college prospects go...sure, some clubs have better pathways than others. Chalk it up to club coach/college coach relationships. But NO family should rely on club coaches to do their recruiting bid for them. That's something you have to own with your kid, with support from a coach. Period. Take the initiative. Otherwise, what the heck are we teaching our kids? How ironic it is to get pissed at tryout favoritism and politics, but be cool with leaning on a coach who knows someone, in hopes of gaining an edge in a process?[/quote]

Well said. [/quote]
