[quote=Anonymous]We have a BSC girl who does NOT find Bethesda "joyless"; she can't wait to go to practice, see her friends, try new things and she likes her coach; makes her laugh and encourages her to try new things.. There is a poster who constantly posts about "joyless" soccer on any thread that brings up Bethesda thread; Constantly states that those families that stay, who put up with stuff just to be on the A team. Personally, If my kids do not enjoy their out of school activity, we move them appropriately. So no, we don't "put up with stuff" as this poster keeps saying. We have experienced many different sports cultures - so we know how things vary. we know what happens when you get to high school, college; how sometimes kids want to try different things, how some kids stay focused on a sport. Understand that there are many parents and kids who have different experiences - different teams, different coaches, different families, different expectations of their kids. I understand something was not a fit for some families for many reasons, but there are happy kids there too. but I agree 100% with this poster, Kids should be where they are happy - particularly at a young age in soccer. But that maybe different for different kids. Would suggest if anyone is considering any club in the area, go to practices, watch the kids, watch the coaches, talk to parents there, particularly those with multiple experiences. the good news is that in this area there are lot of clubs - and new clubs forming (great!) , different styles of training, size of club, commitment levels, etc [/quote]
