Either camp, I'd probably do the outdoor camp at BRSC for my boy.
So, are you close enough to get him into the Blackhawks FC in Houma? They field one of the best teams in the state generally and have, at least for my anecdotal situation, superior coaching to TSA. My boy's 11, and we travel all over south LA playing clubs...if you can get him in in the 9U or 10U program with the Blackhawks...DO IT.
The parents are noticeably different as well, but you expect that when you see dedication to the game it takes to raise these little ballers. This may be out of line, but as an outsider you are lucky to be so damn close to this program...I'd move him over from TSA if you can...and I say that simply from playing the A teams from both squads regularly.
I drive WAY further than that to practice.

I am pretty close to this organization. I'd say roughly 20 min drive to where they practice, host tournaments etc.. I've heard both positive and negative about the Blackhawks. From what I understand some of the more competitive teams have become highly political regarding on who plays on what team in a given age group. Again, as an outsider I have no first hand experience of this simply hearsay.
I regisrered the little guy for the BRSC outdoor camp and for now I believe we will be sticking with TSA until or IF any change is warranted. I personally know the director of HTSA so it wouldn't be hard to converse with him and discuss a transition.
Thanks again everyone for the input.
