| Looking at the lawsuit documents…sexual harassment led to all this? Sounds like DC Soccer was trying to delay everything from being settled to prevent Brookland from forming. This is incredibly unethical business practice. DC Soccer needs another full on rebrand with a brand new staff in place. Better yet, what is the board doing allowing all of this to go public?!?! |
| How did you find the lawsuit documents? |
Go to DC court case search Go to civil Search by Stoddert |
Can you give us more details? I can't figure out the court case lookup. |
What age/gender is this? |
Please do. This is crazy. |
| Oh no!! We have a dear friend going to DC soccer to play U14 and it sounded like a great fit for them. Should we warn them!???? Seriously this sounds awful!!! |
As a parent of a current team, I didn’t notice any of these issues. Yes field space could pose an issue, however they make do with what’s available. We’ve committed to staying albeit these things are going on behind the scenes. |
+1, none of this back-office drama has been an issue for either of our two kids. |
|
There is drama at every club. If you haven’t seen it you haven’t been around long enough.
Focus on your kid. Does he/she like the coach? Getting playing time? Developing at the appropriate level? If yes, congrats. If not, look around. |
| We’re feeling a bit worried about the coming year. We’ve had a few players leave the group, and just found out that some of the players recruited from outside tryouts have now decided to cancel registration and leave before even joining. Any clubs still doing tryouts in the area? |

I’ve noticed that several posts, particularly those asking questions or seeking clarification about ongoing issues at DCSC, have been deleted. This raises concern within the community, especially among families who are seeking transparency and honest communication from the club.
Rather than removing questions, it would be more constructive to address them openly. A clear and respectful dialogue can go a long way in restoring trust and ensuring members feel heard and valued. Can someone from the DCSC please clarify how leadership plans to address the concerns being raised here? Thank you. |
| Has DCSC had a town hall on this? I am getting all the emails about the fundraiser as an incoming ECNLR family but nothing about this issue |
What year/gender? |
No…. They will not address it. This is a legacy DCSC issue that spans decades since it was Stoddert. They have had several lawsuits with coaches in the area. This one is public. |
