I am fairly certain my DD is staying where she is. We have visited other clubs practices and it does not seem different or better. I don’t like a lot of things about our current club and coach but it is super convenient.

Anyone else?

OP, you and DD should go elsewhere now. Your dislike for your current club and coach will fester and become toxic very quickly. The convenience will never win out on the regret.

I'm not trashing you, but this is the problem with travel soccer. Most of us talk about coming and going before tryouts even start. It should be ID the teams first, tryout, offer made/not, and them decide. Wish clubs would actually do a real tryout and not just take the kids from the previous year and add a few. We use to be in a club in LA and the tryout scouts were not connected to the coach/team directly. They would just group the kids into the levels, no favoritism, all had to work to earn/reearn their spots.

Lmao. You may want to wait on that now that Zidane is back.

Actually I have a 6th grader.

WTF are you talking about? He didn't mention names and didn't ask for any. If your level of anxiety is that high over an online anonymous forum, step back and take a break.

You seem very upset. You need to stop dropping the F bomb on this forum and seek help. Are you the terrorist who keeps plaguing the ECNL and DA threads? You sound the same. In that case, a psychiatrist would be a very good idea.

We are considering it-tryout tomorrow! All so nerve wracking...

Not the OP but what the F is wrong with you? Maybe he or she wants to compare experiences or just wants to talk. What does it matter to you?

You sound obsessed.

I know tryouts have started so just checking to see if anyone is definitely changing clubs?
