Ohhh the "Loyalty" card.

When these parents and kids make the decision to leave a Club/Team/Teammates and join another Club, the lesson your kid just learned is-

"It's all about us".

Forget your teammates, forget your old team, get ready for some highway time.

The only loyalty I have seen in soccer, seems to be in High School Soccer.

Our experience with two kids was, these were the teams they cared about, the teammates they grew up with, a school they had pride to represent.

Club soccer is pretty good to teach your kid that there is no loyalty in this world. Which for the most part, sadly is true.

The Club is not loyal to you. You do not need to be loyal to it.

HH, your daughter was part of a CESA team. I am sure CESA loved it when they got her. They got one from another Club.

But now she is leaving, they don't need her.

Lesson learned. Life can be bitter.
