Originally posted by Unregistered View PostThe coach tells the kid which team they belong on well before the next season; it just requires you to reach out. The kid; not the parent. There is no bait and switch. If you are worried about your spot, you ask. They make it VERY obvious where your kid is on the depth chart. If you bury your head in the sand and pretend like what is obvious isn’t, then you get what you deserve. Nothing is a surprise. If you’re surprised; then you weren’t paying attention.

Originally posted by Unregistered View PostI don’t agree with this post. There absolutely are surprises at the end of the year for some families. The only ones that know their place are the ones where the parents pay for their roster spot (unless maybe you are an obvious top 5 on the team). Everyone else could be on the chopping block if there are no pre conceived ties.
90 % of parents cant do that- stop blaming others, watch off ball, see the little things that count, see their body language when they are on the bench
you will never be surprised again

Originally posted by Unregistered View PostNope- your totally wrong. I’m not placing blame on anyone- just telling the truth. There are kids that play and stay on an ECNL 1 team only because of parent influence or involvement. Either your part of the parents that influence or are totally ignorant.
and all 3 will have had college soccer careers,( last one already recruited)
if your kid can play ,coach's will play them- what is the upside for a coach to bench or cut players that can help them for players who cant?

Originally posted by Unregistered View PostThat is such a misrepresentation of what actually occurs. Like all clubs the kid gets a letter telling them what team they made. They have a set amount of time to accept or decline. Roster spot is held while that decision is being made. There is NO such bait and switch like this poster suggests. Don't care what club your at, its the same across the board.
Any suggestion that you're locked into $4,000 prior to knowing if your on ECNL 1 or 2 is absurd. And that goes for GAL, Town travel A and B teams, EDP, NPL, etc. Its the same protocol across the board.
