But OP is looking for older girls and 5 would like to stay together. This club js known for taking returning players and there will only be a spot of one wants to leave.  They are extremely loyal, more than other clubs, which might cut if someone with more skill comes along.

You won’t be able to get 5 girls together at an older age on a VV team.  [/quote]

It is unreasonable to think that 5 girls would manage to stay together unless they are trying out for a less competitive club. Their level of play must be way over the club average to have a chance to displace the returning players. Or a club with poor retention rate (which is a red flag for other reasons). The club will prefer their returning players if the new players trying out are at the same or slightly better level. Some clubs may want to replace some of their own players due to attitude or stagnation (or even height), but you rarely see good clubs replacing 5 players. [/quote]

I never said that they needed to be on the same team. [/quote]

Then this is more realistic. Good luck and hope you have a better experience no matter where you end up going![/quote]

Thank you. Hopefully, we can send a message to teams that don't appreciate players for any reason. [/quote]

Sports? Most coaches only like the best players regardless of race. Get away from the racist coach, but it’s not realistic to find a coach that appreciates every player. I wish it were realistic, but it’s not especially for older children.[/quote]

+1 on this comment. Star players stay star players even if you/ we don’t think they are and are always treated differently even if others don’t see or believe they are. In the same vein, returning players are also way more likely to sit more and feel less seen unless they are a rockstar. When you switch teams unless your child is a super star new player you should expect they will have an uphill road ahead to prove themselves. As well as fit in with the players and existing relationships and team dynamics. Switching clubs at older ages as others have said is tough for a lot of reasons. It requires your player to really work hard and it may only be the example you shared before they are allowed to shine. Best of luck! Folks switch for a ton of reasons with coaching issues topping the list. [/quote]
