Fall season is coming to an end and the Spring Season has yet to begin. New 10U teams are going to be popping up left and right, but if you’re not a 1st year 10s team please don’t start up another team. The talent level is water down enough. I am pretty sure your kid can find a spot on one of the teams that is already out there.
Don’t fool yourself 10u is no longer developmental. Every coach has an ego and it’s all about winning. With all the money and time that is being spent on private lessons and Speed/Agility classes I’m surprised how bad some of these 10u teams are. SoCal has some of the best talent out there but we don’t have a dominate 10u team.
I noticed some 10u teams advertising their PGF invite to recruit new players. Not sure why PGF is handing out invites during the fall season when a lot of these teams have players that will have to move up to 12s in January.
I honestly don’t care who wins PGF at 10u as long as it is not a team from Texas or Tennessee. If PGF wants to hands out invites they should give each organization only 1 invite. Hopefully this will force some of those big organizations to put together an All Star type team at year end to compete against those out of state teams.
Below is a list of teams in alphabetical order that I wouldn’t mind hand picking kids from to start a new team...HAHA
BB-Garcia
BB-Townsend
Explosion
Power Surge
SCA-Briggs
SCA-Terrones/Medina
