Say what you want but YJ coaching for the most part and especially with their top teams is much better. My daughter is also a transfer and there is no comparison the coaching at her age on YJ is fantastic. That being said I actually think the talent on the top TG team in the age group is better so if the saying holds about playing with better kids holds true it's a toss up between which team would help her improve more. I coach a younger level town team and have to say I now watch every minute of her YJ practices ,I have learned more from these 3 practices coaching wise than I did all of last year. YJ practices have a lot of team drills and team concepts while the TG practices almost seemed to be a try-out with 1 on 1 etc and individual concepts.Just my experience so far.
We made the switch to TG this year and so far we are not impressed. My daughter and a few others were not on what our former club considered to be the best team and after a bit of coaxing decided to give it a try. Dunce cap parent of the year for me, girls are not welcoming and parents are worse. Watching grown men flock to the club owner at practice was amusing. Too late for us at this point and it was a stupid move before HS, warning to others-the grass is not always greener. JMHO.
Its only been 1 practice right? What exactly did you expect. There are no secrets or magic involved. The kids practice and the parents watch. How much time was there for the girls to be welcoming, there were a couple of teams practicing at the same time, I certainly didn't know who to welcome
