[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In most leagues this will be a huge reshuffle but a one and done. We are however in a MLSN club and on the AD team, which is a whole mess with us going to SY and the HD staying BY.

Either would have been fine, staying BY for AD or switching to SY for both. The split spoils the draw of AD as a feeder (at least theoretically) to HD for Q3/Q4 kids. The illusion as it were is killed, and that might damage the league's ability to recruit competitively in the future.

For us specifically, we were annoyed, talked it over, and we agreed that neither the commitment nor the drive is there for our family to pursue HD or ECNL NL. We like the club enough to just stick around and switch to the younger team next year. It did take a bit to sink in and we looked around at the huge range of different options before deciding to roll with it.

Youth soccer is tough and provides life lessons -- how hard work can rewarded but not always and then what. Sounds like you are at the then what. Hope you find a good situation this fall and who knows maybe not chasing badges brings out the best for your kid where someone will come knocking.[/quote]
