Potomac soccer: Anyone happy?

[Anonymous]

What's going on with the Pre ECNL 2015 boys? They can't be happy! Zero wins all season. Getting crushed 14-1, 10-1, 8-2 by SYC, Coppermine, and BSC. Seems like they should not be in that high level division and bracket.

This is sport for children not the major league. No idea how someone so full of hatred has so much responsibility around children.

KL is an emotionally immature man with a huge ego and an explosive temper. He is verbally abusive to the children he is supposed to be teaching and guiding.

My son is playing for KL currently and every player and family on his team adore him. He has an individual relationship with each kid, he sets high expectations gives the kids freedom and holds them to those expectations. I’ve had parents in the club tell me how much they wish KL still coached their kids or hope he does in the future, he is a great example and mentor for the children and is coaching at an extremely high level.

Potomac replaced the coach for next year although it was his first year with the group. We play at a different club, but heard that the boys and families don’t like the coach at all

PP clearly never spoken with any of the group KL gave up last year then, as this group is in agreement that never realised how bad his behaviour was until came away from it. He’s also lost a lot of players from his older team and had very big arguments. PP accurate about ego and lack of maturity, he always bad talking about people.

Honestly people, if you’re really so unhappy just move on. Is the club perfect? No. But they do so much very well considering the size of the organization. We have had a great experience, more changes with practice schedules this year but we asked about them and received an honest update about some issues. DS loves the team and the coaches, we have enjoyed the club and the leadership. Having seen elsewhere, Potomac is doing a great job!

Many of the boys in that birth year left to start their own team because they were so unhappy with the club. Their new team seems to be doing well from what I hear from the few parents I know and the boys sound very happy post-PSA. So it's possible PSA 2015B was starting from scratch a bit due to that exodus. But yes, based on the scores PP listed they're probably not in the proper division.

Two players from the top team and several second team players moved to this other club. That club is a complete mess, but maybe that’s for a different thread 😂. FWIW they’ve recently played lower level Potomac teams and only won by a few goals.

They left for P90
