[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][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] You mad? If your kid is good, he/she will be spotted. Coaches always have 10-20% of the roster on the bubble or vacant to give room to a potential new add on. I'm blunt to most parents on the sidelines, "if your kid is top team material we will all see it." [/quote] I think the point sailed over your head. Read 1 and 2 again and compare.[/quote] In our case the Coach did see it as well as every parent on the team. First year, low team. Within weeks coach was telling age group head (total dolt who later was demoted) to move him up, repeatedly. Deaf ears. Coach left Club in spring. Nothing ever happened. So even if coach is your advocate, in some Clubs it doesn't mean shit. We had a similar thing with our other child at first tryout. Dummies that didn't see the kids all year making the roster decisions on dubious terms. That's when we realized it is always this way at this Club.[/quote]
