[quote=Anonymous]In our experience so far - 2 seasons of both (9,10,11):
KOA: 
-Expensive
-pay to play lobbying by parents
-don’t know how to deal with young boys
-don’t switch positions much
-“professional” coaches phone it in - paid, but are hit or miss as to whether they even want to be there
-games cancelled for rain(few, or usually no makeup games)

BCC:
-Much cheaper
-no lobbying - they will even tell people, politely, to cut it out (it is funny to watch a parent try because they get so pissed when the coach or head people explain the line-up and rotations.)
-everyone gets to play, rotations are fair and make sense
- “parent” coaches usually have their kid on the team, but they play and rotate. There really is no preferential treatment
-games cancelled for rain(makeup games added on)
=&gt; The parents of the kids are much nicer in BCC- BCC is a community of friends playing, KOA felt like rich Bethesda pay to play - which is ridiculous for 9-11 year olds

Also - BCC rec during the season is great too. Good play, good coaches, great community

KOA summer camp - great(at least 2021 was)! You can sign up the week before. It is usually at Churchill high school. The college students. and coaches train the kids. My kids loved KOA summer, just not the BABL. (several of the college guys did BCC and KOA)

We will try BCC summer camp.

I hope that this helps.
