They cannot retain enough players for these second teams. Look at their line up. Plenty of younger teams bc they dont know better. U11-12 is when the kids start to either find new clubs bc they realize the scam or they are over soccer. |
Question: did CYA and SYA travel soccer have issues before they merged to become valor? Or was this a situation of two not so good clubs coming together to make a bigger not so good club? We have experience with CYA rec soccer and I don’t think they run it very well. It seems like the problem maybe starts there. But have no experience with SYA. |
He is a great coach. One of the best from SYA, now Valor. I get there are some frustrations with the club (all deserved) but he is a great coach. The kids and parents will love him. The 2nd team coach is also very strong. |
And yes, he has coached girls. He was on the girls side prior with SYA. |
SYA was strong. No clue why they merged. Perhaps so they can get better/more fields. |
We started CYA soccer in the beginning and I remember at that time there is not enough player to make a team for one age group. So merge is expected. |
I don't think a merge was necessary - CYA kids could have picked Herndon for travel. |
Is Herndon good for travel? Especially interested in the boys’ side. |
Where are people going? |
No clue where they are going. We had 4 girls not show up for tryouts at all and some of the girls mentioned to others that they are not returning. We are assuming 4-6 girls are on their way out. |
Boy side is very strong, girls is very weak because of the mass exodus of girls teams a few years back |
HA! 2013G is fine! 3 didnt show because 2 are moving out of the area and 1 has loudly been so unhappy that she committed to another team a while ago. Just take what you see on her with a grain of salt…many families are happy with Valor- 45+ girls showed up for 2013G tryouts and over 100+ boys showed up for 2013 boys tryouts…do whats best for your kid and dont use this lovely board to decide much. |
Only having two teams for 2013g for next fall is a real small age group for valor |
How do you know how many kids showed up for 2013 girls and 2013 boys? |
No way. Pretty sure there are only 30 kids currently to rostered between the 2 teams. Where are these other kids coming from? CYA rec? |
