Our first year of club. My son is one of the top players on a U11 B team.
Fall - game and practice attendance was good. Though we couldn't get enough for extra tournaments outside of those on the calendar.
Winter - The same 4-5 kids have been attending practice and we can't seem to get the numbers for tournaments that are on the schedule. Some parents don't even respond to team emails.
A/B teams practice together at times and it seems the A team doesn't always have the numbers either.
My questions - Is this typical across all clubs? Is this just a Winter thing? Is it possibly just a B team thing?
We joined a club team expecting the interest level to be higher than a town or travel team and are quickly learning that isn't the case.
Trying to figure out if we should look elsewhere for next Fall. Otherwise we're pretty happy with the club.
