She liked some of the other players, but she did sloppy reps and no one ever corrected her of cared if she did it anything well.

But they are seriously trying to put pressure on 9 and 10 year old kids, when those lessons are best suited for kids post puberty. Your post is not surprising as there is room for improvement and genuine engagement. The head Coach has angry teenager vibes and the other coaches barely coach.

This sums them up completely! They prey on parents who have FOMO or just want their kids to be IG famous. I think they had good intentions when they started out but social media and the business aspect of it got to their heads.

Its definitely interesting to see that certain kids aren’t held to the policy that you can’t play for another team. How many people honored that policy and are now left out because False8 made exceptions for their special players.

This is our first experience with F8 and it will be our last. They do this big song and dance about how important it is to attend practice so you can learn their super special methodology and yet they promote kids who rarely, if ever, show up to practice. Why set expectations you are just going to disregard? The owner is trying to make F8 a premier training program but such actions undermine its credibility and integrity. Like others have mentioned, it is good marketing but it papers over a lack of professionalism and substance.

They already have their set of super star kids which are typically the best kids in the age group and they keep promoting them when in reality they never trained or developed them.

I dodged a bullet then. The year around futsal was tempting but we never jumped.

Ugh this makes me so mad. They set expectations but then don’t care if others break the rules. Not every kid gets all these opportunities to play here there and everywhere so I thought them saying you could only play for f8 this season would be good to keep cohesion among the teams and also make sure that kids are committed. Now that I see they don’t care if you don’t show up to practice or play for other futsal teams is just not fair to the kids that are there everyday. Also not fair to the players that don’t get a lot of opportunities to play but had their spots taken by players that have multiple opportunities to play for other teams. We won’t be coming back next year.

Maybe I am an old, but I didn't get that one. Is it some kind of current trend?

No, it was an actual social media post, where he had players dribble around a pound of ground beef, saying be sure to cook the beef.

Don’t worry they won’t do anything about it and everyone knows it
