[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My experience at ASA is nothing like your suggestion. They do ask for donations at registration, but no coach or staff have ever pressured us - I am not sure they have ever mentioned it. I have kids from rec to top academy teams in the club.

One of my kids was unknown, made lower team during an id session after playing rec in a different club.

They have moved up teams and played most of each game the past two years. I credit two things. One, they are pretty good. Two, and way more important, they listen at practice and try hard. At u9-u12 a lot of the distinction is just which kids are there to practice vs hang with friends and goof off.

I am not saying the experience of others didn’t happen or that there isn’t any of the pay for play stuff happening, but it isn’t as pervasive as some posters would make it seem. And being in ASA and having friends at other clubs, I hardly think ASA is some locus of more bad behavior than other places. [/quote]
