At what under age level can a child easily move clubs, at U10 could a child easily switch clubs?

Up to and including U11 can switch - the 'home' club cannot object. In Dublin they must still transfer during the designated window though.

So my son is 11 in August and plays U10 for a club but its really not working out and he has a load of mates in the other local club, so if he sticks it out this year - they usually finish in September he should have no trouble switching to play u12 next year?

What do you mean not really working out?

I think he means his lad isn't enjoying it. if that's the case, get him moved or he'll end up giving up the sport.

Or maybe he means he's an outstanding footballer but he has little chance of silverware with the retards he plays with now and would have a better shot with the "other" local club.

Or it could mean the complete opposite and he wants his lad to have a chance to develop in a different environment.  At the end of the day that is none of our business,  as has been said move him to where he feels happier and don't think again about it.

As long as he hasnt played U12 football yet he can transfer without issue. If you need specific info pm me

I don't think Collie, to be fair to him, was suggesting the weaker kids were that but that that was how 'Zip code' might have been interpreting his sons team to be, i.e too useless for my little Johnny.

My own view is that kids should be allowed transfer without any hassle from one club to the other.

If he is 11 this year he shouldn't be playing U10.

Some counties have a cut of date as the 01/07 for certain age group's. It coincides with the school year.
