Yes, these situations with only two club years left is very concerning. There were several 1.5 situations out there. Please parents, do your research, ask the questions, and get commitments from a club in writing before you put down your hard earned money and waste a valuable recruiting year. New season, no need to list clubs that tried the 1.5 model last year. Point is, ask questions. Red flags in my opinion are, same coach for two teams in the same age bracket and combined practices.
