[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have coached a Bridge team for years. My kid is happy on this team, he is a multi sport athlete and the time commitment (2x/week training, for starters) works out much better with his other sports. I have always had a relationship with the Elite coach in my age group and have often sent kids to them for a look when I think they would do well at that level. I have also had several kids come to my group from the higher team. I know there are other coaches who also have that relationship. Some don't, everyone runs their teams a little differently. That said, we definitely do our own thing and don't interact with that team at all. Training space is fine, though yes it is separate from the Elite groups.

Because we're volunteer coaches, it's a wide variety of personalities and experience, but there are some good teams and coaches out there. Have your kid participate in a practice session and get a feel for the team. When I get kids who sleep, eat and breathe soccer, they usually need a higher team, if nothing else because they just want more soccer than I can give them, but for most kids it's a great opportunity to play travel soccer and be a part of a team that stays together for the most part but doesn't have quite the price tag/time commitment as some of the higher teams. And the price is pretty insanely cheap for a travel team. I think it's very much worth checking out, and trying to find a coach that works for your kid. That fit with the right coach would matter more to me than what club they were playing for if they weren't an elite, top of the pile sort of player. My older son bounced through three different clubs before he finished out his soccer days playing for a good coach and with great kids on a Bridge team. [/quote]
