[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why do most Clubs not take in the body of a player's work over the course of an entire year????

It seems time and time again evaluations are based on a few hours of tryouts---even when current coach and former age group coach give strong recommendations for movement up.

If a kid is a playmaker all year, plays the entire game and responsible for 95% assists on goal and no other Coach, but game coach has ever seen him/her play in a GAME SITUATION---why is this given no weight?[/quote]

It happens frequently at Clubs with many teams per age group.[/quote]

Meh...most coaches get it right.  It's the last 4 or 5 on the roster than are hard to differentiate.  The starting 11 are usually pretty obvious.  [/quote]

I haven't seen that.

I have never seen an age group coach or a TD at a single game over an entire year.

They tend to keep most in the same exact place without reevaluating or listening to current coach.

At least at the two clubs we've been with.  They also give starting seniority to returning players of the same team even when new additions are better.

It's just the way travel soccer is.[/quote]

So they don't know their own kids yet trust their kids over outside kids that they don't yet know? Got it. [/quote]

PP above is probably one of those parents still struggling to understand offsides.[/quote]

Or the parent that screams good kick when their child boots the ball to the other end of the field to clear it but yet turns over possession of the ball.  Name of the game is to maintain possession of the ball you moron.[/quote]
