To Super Y or not? Trying to decide if it is worth putting my child into the program this summer.

Super Y has been a blessing for my kid, helped him get in with a club that he wanted to join. Best bang for the buck I think.

For the younger kids is fine Why only younger kids? What do you recommend for U13 and up?

If the kid doesn't want a short break and wants to train and play competitively in the summer, go for it.

My older children (now U14 and U15) had a great experience playing super y - because they ended up getting a great deal of playing time. We didn't go anywhere for summer vacation, so they got to play a lot with their own teams and the older teams who were generally scheduled right after their games.
Lots of touches over the summer and when fall rolled around they were very ready for team camp.

My older did it when she was u13 and we hated it, competition is not even that good. I recommend small sided games during the summer, theres tournaments going on every weekend. It keeps them sharp and gives them a break from being coached.

I recommend going to the lake. Spending time at the neighborhood pool. Taking a trip to the beach.

Why not give it a try if your kid has a free summer? I would say the biggest possible downside is the risk of injury which might impact a kid's fall readiness. Also, there is a wide range of competition, ranging from RPL level teams to teams that would probably be Classic 5 if it were regular season so while some games will be challenging, others will be boring blowouts. My son did Super Y twice (the past two summers, on two different teams) and had a great time playing with kids he normally doesn't play with. Both teams made it to the national championships (which is a lot of fun but right before final exams for high-schoolers). He also got invited to a regional scouting series event for Super Y. But he also got injured in the last Super Y game in July. His fall coach was mad he didn't take the summer off. As with anything though, you won't know what it's like until you try it for yourself so if your son/daughter is interested, I think it's worth checking it out.

I believe in giving the kids a break. It's a long season as usually kids are starting to train mid to end of July to get started for the season August- beginning of December. Then again 6 weeks later they are starting to train again FEB-May. That is a heck of alot of one sport. That break does wonders to the body and mind. By the time the season starts or resumes, my child is amped to be playing again. The one year we had him play through he was fried. An alternative would be to add in a few private sessions in there.. Of course everyone is different.. but this is what works well for us.

Just to reiterate - a great idea if your kid wants to switch clubs.

My daughter (U14) just loves to play and prefers not to sit out. She has played the last two years and will again this year as she really enjoys it.
This is an individual choice per child and family and the experiences will be different for all but playing with different players from other clubs and making friends in the process is great.

Depends on the club and area of Georgia. Definitely a few clubs that I wouldn't trust at all with it. Especially with the amount of clubs doing their own summer leagues for half the price and not having to buy another over priced uniform kit.

Ive had players play for Alpharetta Ambush, RYSA, AFC Lightning, Atlanta Metros FC (SSA) with positive reviews. It really just depends on the coach though.

It really just depends on the coach though. Idk if I would do Super Y at any of those clubs you listed, not familiar with any of their coaching staff or even their teams. I guess since we come from a big club we hardly play the smaller ones. I say it comes down to the coach you will get. The coaching assignments for Super Y are listed on the website and you can do your research on the coaches
