Valor

[Anonymous]

My dc's likely team still doesn't have a coach listed. Who will select the team? How can we accept a spot on a team without knowing who the coach will be?

Call the valor lead coach and ask him where your child stands. He is a very good coach and will be very honest with you about that. If you are talking girls which I think you are, you really should reach out to him.

all HS age RL teams do not have a spring season. 05/06 07 08 09s… All.. the lower teams will attempt to have a season with pool players.. this is true of all clubs with RL teams..

So why do the kids on those teams pay full price when they only have half a year of practices and games?

Good question

Because 09B top team - ENCL R was not told we wouldn't have a spring season. The 2nd and third team do have games. In fact, quoted earlier in this thread was the top team coach in early April still messaging to the parents on the top team that he was working on setting up scrimmages. That went no where. And the third team cannot convince enough of their players to play spring games so the other two teams have been sending kids to play. So at least if a top team player wants to play - they can play with the third team?!

There are multiple age groups with missing coaches. How do you know what agegroup he is talking about?

Still haven't hired coaches for 2015 girl silver, 2013 girl white, 2008 girl gold, 2011 boy white, and 2009 boy white. Tryouts have already begun, how can people make decisions with no coach hired?

If there aren't practices or games, I don't see how the coach should still be getting paid. To do what?

i thought the white teams were the second teams? seems like they should have coaches before the try outs

They should all have coaches before the tryouts, even the low teams, those parents pay the same price as the highest level teams.

How is this helpful advice when there is no coach hired for the team his child would be playing on?

They updates the colors this year for u-11 and above. Those colors are right for youngest ages. At u-11 and above top tram is just called pre-ecnl or ecnl-rl. Then second team (formerly white) is now gold.
Might be some confused returning familles on lower teams thinking their kid got moved up when thats not the case.

So the third team is full of top team players? Sucks to be a third team player now.
