I'm an 04 WS VA parent and don't see any big issues. I'm happy with the way the team is progressing from last year. We all knew about the issue with the age group going combined.

I'm with the people who think that people who don't like the EDP option should leave and should have thought more about it earlier. This is really more an issue to take up with US Soccer, who set the age groups. Who knows, they may change it soon to help in future years.

Overall it's not a good way to judge WS in general, as they are doing lots of things the right way.

You're fine with ~80 kids all crammed onto a field? Ok, if that works for you. I think WS does some things right. It's why I signed up for a second year, but it doesn't mean I'm giving a free pass on the rest. I will give them a little time to even it out, but then they have to do better.

And I see the politics other posters have talked about too, but I think in the end, those folks only expose their own kid to the wrong type of challenge and put them in an environment where they can't excel, so it will work itself out.

Playing up doesn't always lead to playing better; sometimes being in your own age group does.

I seriously doubt that 80 kids are on the field at the same time. That sounds a bit exaggerated.

How many kids could also be playing up to demonstrate this rampant politics that you speak of?

It isn't 80 kids. I'm there every Monday. This is one of the posters who has a bone to pick with either WS or DA in general and is trying to make a point. I think it's been pretty well exposed by multiple WS parents at this point.

When the overlap occurs for a solid 30+ minutes, it's U13 (that's like 15 or so), U14 (about 20), U15 (28), and U17 (25 or so). That's about 80 or so.

U17s do not practice at the same time as the u13-15s. Your numbers are inflated for the first two groups. You spend time hawking this topic to bash anyone who sees it differently than you. It's clear to sane people this is more about your bone than reality.

80 kids like that? That does sound crazy. At our club they schedule a half hour of buffer time between team practices so that previous team can get a final word from the coach and leave. This then gives the coach 20 minutes to set the field up for the next practice, go over his notes before the other team even arrives. The coach will also use this 30 minutes in between sessions to have one on ones with the players and they will sometimes go over film on the players last game on the iPad. SAID NO ONE EVER!!!!!

If you honestly believe that Spirit is the only club that has back to back practices with the next team up milling about on the sideline then you are a loon.

Buddy, leave the club. There isn't an issue with training for my kid, she is getting great training. Better than any other environment we have seen in this area, and that includes a few "academies."

So now you just want to deflect. You said they don't practice at the same time on Mondays. I just showed they do. It's something Spirit needs to fix. Period.

I'd wager the pause in his response was so he could email your friend who actually is at WS and ask for the practice schedule. The other responses usually come so quick.

Agree with this. This guy really does seem to have a gripe with not much of an issue.

Wrong again. I cut and pasted from my own email from Tom. Keep trying. What else do you have on your index card of cookie cutter responses?

I honestly wish he would leave already. It would be even funnier in that it would open up some field space on Monday for 45 minutes, which is his chief complaint and reason to trash WS.

I'm an 04 WS VA parent and don't see any big issues. I'm happy with the way the team is progressing from last year. We all knew about the issue with the age group going combined.

I'm with the people who think that people who don't like the EDP option should leave and should have thought more about it earlier. This is really more an issue to take up with US Soccer, who set the age groups. Who knows, they may change it soon to help in future years.

Overall it's not a good way to judge WS in general, as they are doing lots of things the right way.

You're fine with ~80 kids all crammed onto a field? Ok, if that works for you. I think WS does some things right. It's why I signed up for a second year, but it doesn't mean I'm giving a free pass on the rest. I will give them a little time to even it out, but then they have to do better.

And I see the politics other posters have talked about too, but I think in the end, those folks only expose their own kid to the wrong type of challenge and put them in an environment where they can't excel, so it will work itself out.

Playing up doesn't always lead to playing better; sometimes being in your own age group does.

I seriously doubt that 80 kids are on the field at the same time. That sounds a bit exaggerated.

How many kids could also be playing up to demonstrate this rampant politics that you speak of?

It isn't 80 kids. I'm there every Monday. This is one of the posters who has a bone to pick with either WS or DA in general and is trying to make a point. I think it's been pretty well exposed by multiple WS parents at this point.

When the overlap occurs for a solid 30+ minutes, it's U13 (that's like 15 or so), U14 (about 20), U15 (28), and U17 (25 or so). That's about 80 or so.

U17s do not practice at the same time as the u13-15s. Your numbers are inflated for the first two groups. You spend time hawking this topic to bash anyone who sees it differently than you. It's clear to sane people this is more about your bone than reality.

Here is the practice schedule:
Mondays:
630pm - U13/U14 - LF1
715pm - U15/U17 - LF1
815pm - U19 - LF1

Practices are 1.5 hours. There is 45 minutes of overlap genius.

Buddy, leave the club. There isn't an issue with training for my kid, she is getting great training. Better than any other environment we have seen in this area, and that includes a few "academies."

So now you just want to deflect. You said they don't practice at the same time on Mondays. I just showed they do. It's something Spirit needs to fix. Period.

Make sure to thank your friend at WS for sending you the schedule. What a loser!

Wrong again. I cut and pasted from my own email from Tom. Keep trying. What else do you have on your index card of cookie cutter responses?

Who cares? Why don't you respond to your cookie cutter email and ask Tom to help with your 45 minute issue on Monday. Ask him to send you some Kleenex while you are at it.

This is not the right forum for such a trivial concern. You look petty.
