[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Has anyone noticed that the last two posts say the following?

1. Youth soccer is a joke. At tryouts, they only look at the people who are already with the club, not any of the new people.

2. Youth soccer is a joke. At tryouts, they bring in a bunch of new people and bump out the people who have been with the club.

But we can all agree youth soccer is a joke, right?[/quote]

Of the tryouts we went to they were well run and existing A players were mixed in with new players (I know because we attended a few practices). I honestly think my son got a fair evaluation this time and was looked at by various coaches. Some coaches look at fast strong and some look for more skilled but perhaps smaller/slower. Opted for a club with a bigger pool of kids so my son is paired with players at his level or better.  At the end of the day clubs are business and want your money but if they balance it with solid coaching and some competitive games we will gladly pay.

So I would say it ultimately depends but can't say I call it a joke. [/quote]
