He is not kind to his players and many girls came off crying. He was verbally and mentally abusive to these young girls. I question why parents let their kids be subjected to such abuse. Is getting exposure really worth your kids mental health? That coach should be fired and those parents really need not rethink their priorities

Some care and some don't, that's why some leave for other clubs

If they don't care, then they clearly should not have kids.

or their kids aren't as tender a snowflake as yours and can take the coach - this is not a defense of the coach's behavior, but comment about many kids here being overly sensitive. I've seen this even with mild/kind negative feedback from the coach or having to practice/play in the hear or when its wet.

Calling a kid a loser and telling them they are a terrible soccer is great coaching and constructive feedback. Apparently you have a kid on the team and need to justify your actions of allowing the coach to verbally and mentally abuse your child. Congrats on the parent of the year award. My kid would stand up for herself and not subject herself to such abuse, because she knows her worth on and off the field.

Still pissed that KL didn't like your player huh? Let's hope she can recover from having to live with you all these years and soak up all the hate and negativity from you because apparently she has to jump around teams to find her worth. Time to get over it and move on.

yup she is so mad and hurt that the abusive coach hated her and is in therapy for having caring and loving parents. it will take her years to recover from his rejection and her having supportive and caring parents. Or wait maybe I am just a troll stirring things up.....

Yep, the trauma from caring and supportive parents who still rage about ‘his rejection’ on an anonymous forum and everywhere else. You must be a joy to be around.

Dang, someone is hurt

Tryouts for girls U12 and older start tonight and BSC still hasn’t announced the coaches for these teams. They want you to fork over $4k and have your daughter be around the coach for countless hours each week, and yet they don’t tell you who this person is going to be before you tryout. Is it incompetence, arrogance or both?

Non BSC parent going into tryouts tonight. Can someone with some experience please confirm, bc kl isn’t responding to email inquiries as promised…
Registered my daughter, paid the damn fee, got the confirmation email, etc. however, I can’t find anywhere to register for SPECIFIC tryout dates. Do we just show up to as many as possible?

yes, you just show up to whichever tryout date you can (preferably all of them).

lol lol Lol but seriously, was thinking of bringing my kid to BSC after seeing the success that he had with the 2016s. Is he as bad as KL? Or dare I say worse?

What is so bad about BM? Genuinely curious.

Played his teams before, they always get better. Spoken to him on sidelines, seems to get it. Can’t say what happens internally though but I know some BSC parents and he’s not their complaint.

You're probably not in the plans if you havent already sent tape (If you are relocating from far away) nor practiced with team before April. Attend all tryouts and be prepared for a RL offer at best. Then thank the gods you avoid this hornets nest of insecurity, fear and intimidation.

He’s a great coach. He will put in extra time, much more than other BSC coaches. Loves futsal. Will do practices that are much different. Kind of outside the BSC hierarchy/in-crowd. He does want to win and will play to win in bigger tournaments. So, it can be tough on young kids sitting on the bench in big games. I think he only has one team next year. KL hogging 3 top teams.

I think it’s fair to say that if the club doesn’t know your daughter prior to the tryouts and you want/expect to be on a top team that you’re already late unless your kid is a hidden gem.

hidden gem's have tape, and stay hidden because they are not showing up for tryouts. If you arent going to practices you are not in the plans move on.

My kid is not on his team, but we train close to the same time he does... I've never seen anything bad about his training and thought he is a good coach. He prioritizes his team, minimizing external subs to make sure his girls get more play time. I did see a few frustrated games where he was a bit more forceful than in practice, but overall he seems to be a good coach. All our interactions with him have been positive.

My kid busted the 1st teams ( | ) in a BSC tryout and declined the offer. Ignore the banter as people are trying to intimidate you so their fringe kid can have a spot.
