Any more feedback on this program?

How competitive are the tryouts for U8/U9 premier? Is it as competitive as tryouts for the travel leagues?

My DS has played in the U9 program this year. Requirements are 1 practice, 1 clinic and 1 game per week. Practices and clinics are located in Potomac, Bethesda and DC for the most part but the games are on Sunday's at the Norwood school. We have liked the program however I think some of the coaching could be a little better. It is not super competitive and has a fun environment. I think at a young age this is important. Overall

would like to hear feedback about this program
