For a Maryland 14 year old with about a year of rec experience.

Should she try out for all of them? [/quote]

Where is Academy located?[/quote]

Tryout for as many clubs as you can - getting onto a team is competitive so it's better to have a few options.  It can be stressful and challenging to manage tryouts weekend, but that's the system that we're stuck with, unless something changes. While the CHRVA model isn't perfect, it's better than some other regions. North Texas tryouts happens right after Nationals (i.e., in a few weeks). And this year they changed their regional rules to allow for some pre-tryout recruiting following their regional tournament meaning players are already vying for spots for next season before this season is even over.

Academy practices in Montgomery County. The club director coached at MOCO before starting Academy and uses some of the same facilities as MOCO  (North Chevy Chase Elementary, St. Andrews). Doesn't seem like Academy has teams at every age group but as a newer club, maybe they are planning more teams.

I would put MEVC and Metro Central on the list of clubs to consider in Montgomery County for a player with not too much experience. Definitely sign up for fall clinics at the clubs you may tryout for - fall clinics allow the player/parents to get a sense of what the club is like and for the club to get to know a player before tryouts.[/quote]
