Valor

How about we get a list of good coaches…

I’ll start…

Can’t think of one. Sorry.

[Anonymous]

Thats not fair. People said the coach of the year was good. There's 1.

[Anonymous]

But did you answer the question?

[Anonymous]

Let me think… no one comes to mind.
Mediocre at best. The rec ones are so much better!

The beach and fun at the hotel was an added bonus. I know Valor has its warts for sure but this past weekend was not one of them for us.

Complete garbage. They played some NPL teams that only had 3 divisions for U11 that only at 20-25 total teams In that age D3. San bagging. If it makes you feel better.

Oh definitely sandbagging for that team. A parent coach who only cares about winning. Loves to beat up on lower level competition for bragging rights. Does it in another sport too.

Which team?

Valor sure seems to have a lot of parent coaches.

If Valor has zero talent and every team sucks how are they even capable of sandbagging? I've got lots of issues with Valor but the complaints should have least make logical sense.

It is perfectly logical. The problem with Valor is that the first teams are often more equivalent to second or third teams at clubs they try to claim they are on par with. In the aforementioned situation it was a third team playing against fourth or lower teams and/or teams from very small areas where the talent pool is vastly different. Valor loves to do this at certain tournaments so they can make a bunch of social media posts. The results are quite different when a Valor team plays a team at their same level or even one level down from a similarly sized club.

Logically speaking if Valor
1st team equivalent to 2nd or 3rd teams
2nd team would be equivalent to 3rd or 4th teams
3rd team would be equivalent to 4th or 5th teams

Sure seems like they were in correct division based on your own evaluation of their 1st teams.

I have no idea which of the many parent coach teams you all are discussing but of the game scores were all close for the tournament than they were put in the right flight.

[Anonymous]

Parents coaching their own kids in travel? Isn't that why people pay so much more for club, to have professional coaches?

How many parent coached teams do they have? Is it a lot cheaper to be on a parent coached team vs a real valor team?

They weren’t close scores. Blowouts because they put a third team in the bottom bracket of a low level tournament. The definition of sandbagging.

Again/ this stupid post. Who cares if it’s a parent coach, if they are better and effective than “professional” coach- case in point, EL, KL, KU, CS, SA, CR, GL… Yep, figure it all out folks!
