Agreed. Also, "we will play a strong A-level schedule" and then you never see a true A-level tournament. Or, "we will play showcases and help your DD begin the recruiting process" and then none of that ever happens.
What's the classy way to leave an org?

Sometimes the coaches are honest and parents hear what they want to hear. Sometimes coaches say what parents want to hear to get them to commit. It definitely goes both ways.
In the end just ask yourself, How would Ron Burgundy handle this situation?

What worked for me: tell them immediately after the last game of the season that you're moving on. Thank the coaches for the work they put in and ackowledge that DD is a better player because of them (even if you have to bite your tongue a little to not say what you really want to say, your DD probably still improved in some manner under the coach's direction). Then, be honest as to why you're leaving. Just like at a restaurant when you tell the server you didn't like the food, be respectful but honest. For us, it was easy, DD needed more playing time and wasn't going to get it with her old team. The previous coach made some offers to keep us but understood that my "I'll think about it" was probably a no, and respected my decision when I told him it was no. Hope this helps.

Realized most of my last posts have been these long-winded opinions that are indicative of where my life is right now: too intense. This made me outright laugh and reminded me not take things quite so seriously. Thanks!
