[quote=Anonymous][quote=SocAnon][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is it common for a club to have two teams per age group? For example, two teams in U10 girls? Can anyone speak to the dynamics about this?[/quote]

Also, if the club only has 1 or 2 teams per age group, this is considered a small club…. And growth a development might be limited if are serious about soccer.  We are stuck in a small club now, our eyes are open to how bigger vs small clubs operate.  We are crushed by the bigger clubs regularly.  We are run over at all tournaments also.  With more kids, it allows the club to pay for better coaching staff and run better clinics and eventually develop higher level teams in higher leagues that the small clubs won’t even compete in.  (There may be exceptions.)  I’m starting to develop the opinion that small clubs are like glorified Rec programs.  [/quote]

DC United scouting department apparently does not share your sentiment about the quality of "small clubs".
Seen at several small clubs games this season. [/quote]

You haven't seen my small club.  Lots of individual coaches, all doing separate practices, club leadership not quality checking practices, but yet the club charges premium fees.  Clinics are few and not very effective.   However, I absolutely think there are some great small clubs.... just not in my neck of the woods.[/quote]

Not sure your personal gripe based on your narrow experience constitutes a legitimate argument for or against. [/quote]
