This is my first post ever on a forum so please bare with me.
For the next three weeks my dd has 10u tryouts. Last season she played with an organization that had 2 8u teams. The first was a dominate more experienced team that was her age. The second was a developmental team with younger players. She was not very good at start of season so she fit on developmental team. The coach of the team was terrible and ended up quitting a few months before season end. It was a bad experience, But she dramatically improved(thru much hard work) this year and has turned into a high caliber player.
Team 1: We were with this org. last season and they have some drama. Some of the parents(big surprise) are unhappy and jumping ship, despite their dominance at the 8u level. So there might be openings might not. most of these girls have been with the coach for years and we are not sure our dd will be given a fair shot.
Team 2: this is the premier org. in our area and a new team. They have to fill an entire roster and with dd's ability I am confident she will make team(but you never know). this is the team I want her to be on.
Team 3: I hate to say this but is a lesser org. Plus the coaches daughter will move up next season and my daughter might be left out. My wife likes this team cause of their name,logo and color.
Tryouts are the next 3 Sundays in that order. I want her on team 2 so should we not go to team 1's tryouts? If she makes team 1 should we just stop there? Although I prefer team 2, team 1 has a good thing going plus we have a bunch of stuff with org, name and colors already. I don't wanna pass on team 1 and then not make team 2, but think it would be rude to make team 1 and then make team 2 and bail on team 1.
So what I need is advice on what the best cause of action would be. The main thing is that she wants to play and I don't want to pass on an opportunity and then get turned down.
Sorry to be so long winded but this is important to her and us.
