[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm still a little skeptical of the McLean U8 program. I've known kids who gone to play in that program and turned out to be baseball players the next year.[/quote]

All of these pretravel programs are built to transition from rec to travel.   It's good that it either drives the kids to want more or something different, nothing wrong with playing baseball and they may find their way back to soccer.  With the lower investment it's good to know at U8 than at U9 when you are paying 2-3X the amount.[/quote]

Let me get this straight -- you're arguing that it's good to put 7-year-old kids in a serious training environment without much game play because it's better to find out their interests at age 7 than at age 8?[/quote]

Did you think playing intersquad is any different than playing another club at that age?  Get real.

Make it a House league. Give the kids the team identities they want.

It can be done well. McLean doesn't.[/quote]
