What was Triple Edge?

Triple Edge was the series when it was out of Chantilly before the St James opened. Not going to into the crap storm that let up to it moving to St James and the immediate after but there was some ugliness.

TE was a lot of fun but you seldom knew when the game was much before a day or two before.

So true about the schedule. But those sweet mismanagement of a schedule people could always get a score right and didn’t charge $200 to do it.

So you’d rather have a mismanaged schedule, not be able to plan your weekend, have terrible game sight lines (I remember that NoVa location) all because a kid gets a score wrong every now and again? I remember paying for that league - it wasn’t free. Folks are now starting to question your motives.

One of our kids games this weekend just was changed from a decent time to a terrible time, so I'm not sure STJ is 100% amazing either. Not to mention the fact that there's another basketball tournament this weekend and it's going to be another mess trying to park. Fairfax County's going to have a great revenue weekend.

Can we talk about how they just messed with the schedule for Super Bowl weekend? The last game should be at 430…. There are games at 630, 730, 830 now. Any suggestions to get these changed? Seriously. What are they thinking?

Just checked. Our morning game got pushed as well. I can’t imagine anyone wants to play in the middle of SB. We made plans after seeing original schedule. How do request a change? And that they stop switching times? Ludicrous.

This shouldn't come as a surprise to anyone based on who is running the Winter League and scheduling.

Um excuse me. We are “entitled” to have a schedule that we can make arrangements around and that doesn’t change when the wind blows. We are paying for a service and should be treated like respected customers.

You should all probably talk to the other teams who are telling the St James that they don’t have enough players on Friday for a Sunday game. I can’t imagine they want forfeits because that pisses off the team that gets no game.

This comment is exactly what is wrong with this area. Youth sports is not a service and the entitlement is crazy. These r humans doing the best they can, so many variables. Excuse u, not. The kids pick up on this bullish behavior. Are u with BLC?

Youth sports that are run by volunteers is not a service, but this has a person/people who are collecting a salary to do the job. Different entities enirely

Exactly. And those salaries are based on StJ’s budgets that are based on annual revenue that is driven by customers and how many events and leagues they are willing to pay for…

These rude repllies absolutely reek of St James lax director who cannot tolerate criticism or customers who help pay his salary. There is never any accountability for anything that is being complained about--just shots back about how ungrateful the customers are because they expect him to actually give a shit. Sorry to be rude myself here but I have had it with his attitude.
