[/quote]You probably don't want a coach coaching your kid if he/she can't identify the kids on their team for levels of technical and soccer iq skills through regular training sessions and games.[/quote]

I agree, but 2 scenarios arise when this is a perceived problem. 1.) The Head Coach is making the decisions, but your kid is being coached by a junior coach.  The Head Coach does not have your kid on their radar and the junior coach is just a lackey who might not do more than what they're being told to do. (This is a big club problem with 3 and 4 teams that train together.)  2.) There is the perception by the parents that the coach just isn't looking at your kid more than a few seconds as there are too many kids to coach and the coach is spending all their focused time with the previously established 'A-team' players.   In both those cases, if you would like to move up or get recognized as one of the better players, you might consider private training with the coach if it is allowed within the club.  If not, then keep on grinding! But know that things might not change for a while.    Objectively, I can easily see how private training with your coach could be an avenue fraught with problems; but for new players or seemingly stagnated players wanting to earn starting spots or get on a higher team it might be a good option.
