[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kid did Juniors and didn’t get much out of it. To be fair my child is on the very young side of the birth year. I thought the coerver  coaches were fine. No issues with anyone yelling at the kids, but they weren’t particularly skilled at teaching the 6-7 year old set, in my opinion, either. Lots of the instruction went over most kids’ head. Like they would work on field position, only a small subset would seem to get it, then they’d move on to something else and not necessarily expect or reinforce what was just learned.  I think if your child is particularly mature , able to listen, and driven then it is worthwhile — just to get so many extra touches at that age. There were a handful of kids who really improved. Mine would have better off sticking with Rec.[/quote]

This is helpful. PP.  Thanks.  Curious what you are doing this year if you care to share, as I recall at tryouts we were told that all kids in juniors would be offered a spot on 1 of the mclean travel teams.   We opted out of Juniors last year for our 1st, and based on the above, it does not sound like it would be a good fit for 2nd either next year.  [/quote]

MYS is 100% pay to play.  They switched.  If u do Juniors, you are guaranteed to get to pay the next year for travel.  They take everyone and it actually hurts our club.[/quote]

Can't be true [/quote]

I think that the last two years they have taken absolutely everyone in the young ages. They obviously don't take everyone for ECNL --and kids come from all over to try out --but it seems that for the younger teams they don't have the numbers. I expect that, to some degree, that this is true in most clubs except a place like Arlington where the pool is enormous.[/quote]

The rising ECNL team is coached by Haytham … he'll last about 1-2 years more before he gets the hook . . .

Go to BRYC if you want to get away from those girls coaches.  Mclean is a turd swirling [/quote]

And BRYC isn’t?[/quote]

BRYC is on a downward trajectory.   Aside from a couple of oldest age groups, their teams are weak and getting weaker.   The writing is on the wall. [/quote]

False, U9-U11 is strong/solid at Academy and Bridge levels.[/quote]
