[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The tryout time overlap is problematic.  It might help a lot of us to know: [b]Which clubs are doing invite-only clinics for U14 and up?[/b]

Definitely yes: Metro Travel, Mojo, Paramount, VA Juniors.  (have done invite clinics for years & continue to)

[b]Does anyone know if these clubs are doing invite clinics this year:
Columbia, MDJrs, MVSA, MOCO, Loudon Elite, VAE, others?[/b]

TIA[/quote]

My DD is also U14.  She's done many clinics at Metro, Paramount, VAE, VAJrs, and Loudoun Elite.  Of that list, she is only targeting the last two for tryouts and yes, both VA Juniors and Loudoun Elite have invite clinics.  VAE prides itself on not holding invite clinics as they like to say they are open to all.  The last VAE U14 clinic was a joke - almost 90 mins of scrimmage where coaches weren't even giving feedback or watching.

VAE have invited only clinics.

PP here. I stand corrected. It's interesting to learn that VAE has invite only clinics, as the majority of club emails over the summer clearly state: "Continuing the model begun in 2016, our Fall clinics continue to be open to all and are not by invitation."

My DD has done many clinics with VAE in the past - they provide positive and supportive training. She has since focused on other clubs (for a variety of reasons).  For those - especially more beginners - looking for more training, VAE provides good clinics.  For those more advanced, we have found it a mixed experience.[/quote]

I’m pretty sure the others here are talking about pre-tryout or tryout prep clinics to be invite-only.  Not talking about the fall clinics or just general skills clinics.  [/quote]
