I'd try to find a club where the kid could get playing time and be neither the star nor the bottom player- that would be best fore development. I would not want to have my kid on a team where they never played

Question - if given the option, would you choose a higher team with less playing time or a lower team where you would be the star player?

Anyone have insight on what's happening with the 08 boys (other than ECNL)?

We got ours MSLNextCCLProODSLEDP offer which is superior to your offer!!

We got our MLSNextECNLCCLNCSL offer. Team color is tie-dye, but we are probably going to accept.

I don't have direct experience of Grant although he is the age group director which may indicate something (or not). The red teams are definitely not treated like they don't matter, although they are fairly separate. However the top 3 - 5 red team boys will practice once a week with the ECNL team, with one or two typically moving up each year - Arlington are good at this.

got purple offer last night

Well, you'll know when you know. You may not like the process but it is what it is.

09 boys or girls, and are you joining or leaving Arlington? Totally unclear from the chain.

Boys, joining. Not a top team, so doubt most people here would care.

For the person who suggested I am lying to try to upset people, you have issues, but whatever. I am happy for my son.

DP. Some people are waiting for lower team invites, and it would be helpful to them to know how the process is going. Not everyone is a crazy top-team-or-nothing parent.
