That’s true. If the club does well and your DC does well, you want a club that will provide maximum exposure to recruiters AND will guide you through the process. My kid is still middle school but we have high aspirations.
"We." It should have nothing to do with you, sir or madam. It should be what your child wants, and only that, exclusively.
Your job is to assist your child in fulfilling their aspirations. It doesn't matter a tinker's darn if you want them to play D1, try and play professionally, or whatever. If your kid says they want "xyz" then you help them work towards xyz. This is not YOUR life, nor is it your sport. You are simply a facilitator for something they want in their life. The sooner you learn this, the better.

Which clubs are getting maximum exposure and guiding you through the process? This sounds too good to me true.
Certainly not VRSC with new faces every 6-12 months

Thanks for the lecture. We appreciate your help.
Suit yourself. As a has been or never was, I should have known you would not listen. Be prepared for a reckoning some day.
Wasn’t same poster. Perhaps look in the mirror instead of lecturing everyone. Sounds like you’ve had your own bad experience.
Not at all. I am simply realistic about who is playing the sport at this time.
If you were not the previous poster, perhaps it should not pertain to you, and need to be addressed by you, unless you are part of the has been/never were crew who needs to live their sporting dreams through their child.
All that said, it's been my experience at Revolution that a lot of the parents are unrealistic and have extremely poor attitudes. Not all, mind you, but many do.
