For younger ages U10, U11....? U12....Valeo offers great skill development...also at older ages but not sure what leagues they are involved in.
Bolts and NEFC have been the most stable clubs, but if you aren't on their top two teams then it isn't really worth the money. For the lower team, you could pay me the same and I'll train your kid better. In that light, a great town team is as good as any third tier club team and about 1/4 the cost.....

Find a coach that you really like. Ask them about their philosophy - how they play, emphasis on winning vs development etc... A lot of club coaches, are too focused on winning especially at the expense of developing the right way to play. I have seen a lot of club teams in the u11, u12 age group play nothing but long ball by having defenders and keepers just kick the ball all the way up the field to attackers. They don't teach playing out of the back. Sometimes this leads to wins because they get a good bounce over a defender (who isn't allowed to head) and it makes everyone happy. When they get to the older age groups, the long ball tactic does not work because defenders understand how to negate it. Then these types of team are SOL because they don't have the technical ability or understanding of how to play out of the back.

Good luck getting a straight answer from a coach or club DOC. They're like used care salesmen, telling you what you wan to hear. Most parents never played and can't tell good coaching from bad so a w/l record becomes a proxy ofr quality of coaching. Clubs know it, coaches know it.
We don’t create soccer players…we don’t know how and coupled with the lack of natural talent and genetic deficiencies in our kids in regards to soccer, we never will.
And if you have to ask what those genetic deficiencies are, then you have your answer.
Hard, cold truth.

No use arguing with you though- you don't have the intellectual wherewithal to do so. It wouldn't be a fair fight.
All you really want to do is Troll and start arguments.
Please, go out and watch an EPL this wekeend.
DO SOMETHING...
Cheers Mate... :)

They are playing at theh highest level of soccer and excelling in Professional Leagues throughout Europe (in England, Germany, Italy, France, Spain, Portugal, Ireland, Scortland, Japan, etc.)
