[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think the problem boils down to expectation setting. With teams being somewhat fluid, you don’t know if your DC will be a starter or bench warmer when you sign up in the spring. Coaches won’t outright tell you your DC is a benchwarmer because frankly they need some benchwarmers on team for injuries, family commitments, etc. From a parents perspective though, it sucks to drive NJ for your DC to only play 10mins. My recommendation is to make sure you have a good understanding of how your DC fits on the team before committing. [/quote]

Part of being on a team, have your kid try swimming [/quote]

Does anyone know why VDA is taking so long to release the coaching slate? Heard Mikey will take that 04 team and my DD wants to tryout if that’s the case. Does anyone know when they will make that decision and when they will be having the tryouts? My DD plays DA currently and we have heard great things about that Coaches training. I called the club with no response so if anyone can shed some light for me that would be helpful. [/quote]

What DA club are you with?[

You think I am putting all that out there yet. Not happening[/quote]

If your DD is on a DA club, you should know that you don't need to wait for "tryouts" -- just contact the club, even if it's not Mikey just yet, and ask to come to a practice.  No restriction limiting a DA player from going to an ECNL practice. Of course there may not be practices to go to since it's HS season, which you should weigh in your decision of whether you would leave a team that does practice in the spring.  Not saying DA is necessarily better than ECNL -- depends on the player and the club, but the spring training situation is a bit complex.[/quote]
