[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Eh. I am betting that you have a kid at a higher competitive level.  I had two kids go through travel soccer, they were always on the second or third team out of five, and no chance of moving off it or playing in college.  It was a fun enough experience in that capacity.  I have heard that the top teams are cutthroat, but ours were ok.[/quote]

Yeah, I wonder about this too.  We will be trying out for top teams for the 23-24 and I worry about this "cut throat" environment.  We've only been at small clubs and everyone (teammates and parents) loves my kid.  It happens all the time that kids from smaller, less well known clubs come in around the U13 age when play moves to 11 v. 11, and I wonder what the dynamics are there and how the individual team members act towards a new kid from outside the club and seeing their long time teammates not making the top team.  I've always assumed that at a high level of competition and on the top teams, the kids that are not considered part of the top 5 or so of the team are used to never feeling secure in their position and always having to proof their worth.  Is that the case?[/quote]
