[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am at the start of the travel journey and it’s totally fanning the flames of my insecurity. Kid definitely has a ton of room for improvement and is definitely second string. The parents treat you like sh:t bc your son is low man on the totem pole (and it’s not even the “best” level team, mind you!) They are organizing a winter training program which only “select” team member are being chosen for. My kid enjoys playing but I hate the craziness of it all. makes me want to run for the hills!

I'm sorry about this. I see it happen all the time.  Are these teams that a few motivated parents help to organize but aren't through the club?  We are at a small club and a few parents at bigger clubs know my kid who is very good and he is regularly invited to join winter teams or weekend/day tournaments over kids in their own club.  I know for some parents whose kids aren't invited, they create their own team and I highly recommend doing this, especially if your kid just really enjoys playing.  Also, if you also want to continue building your kid's confidence as he develops, I also suggest that they talk to their local rec team and see if they can come just for games (assuming they need players).  I know a lot of rec leagues are often hurting for players).  Good luck![/quote]
