I would suggest it probably impacted a few applicants, but wasn't a determining factor for most families.


Parent coach is a short for dad of girl. Like Joey Spallina.

My daughter plays for a TOP Maryland club team and would not lower her status by playing for a dad-coached high school team.


This has to be a joke - many of the TOP Md teams are coached by dads (and moms).


Agreed. Coppermine, Eagle Stix, M&D, and Crush (4 of the top 6 2028 teams) all have parent coaches...


I am not aware of anyone from any of those 4 teams that would have considered Visi in any case.


The point was that parent coaches don't necessarily suck. And it was a silly comment to suggest otherwise. Jenny Levy is a parent coach for goodness sake.


Jenny Levy was head coach at UNC before she had any children. She won't even coach her daughter til this fall?

I wonder who coached the Cubs AKA VISI today at Indoor Nationals in Spooky Nook, Pa? All the top HS teams were there --most being coached by parents since HS rules do not allow the actual HS coach to do it. Looks like some tough match ups. https://www.insidelacrosse.com/article/2024-ilwomen-national-indoor-championships-rosters-schedules-more/62386?utm_source=Inside+Lacrosse+Fastbreak+Newsletter&utm_campaign=b7499df3d5-EMAIL_CAMPAIGN_2019_06_06_12_34_COPY_01&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_92eedbe203-b7499df3d5-56602805

Multiple girls applied to Visi from several of those teams this year.


Multiple 2028 Visi applicants play for Coppermine, Eagle Stix, M&D, or Crush? I don't think that is correct, but if true it would suggest Visi has NOT lost the entire class of 2028 talent because of this.


Hero’s was supposed to be included. Multiple girls from Heros Green have applied.


That is promising. So basically Visi has not lost any talent because of this, which was pretty much what I expected.


Correct, but just because they applied doesn’t mean they will necessarily choose to go there. One of the factors may being the coaching situation.

That's what I thought as well. They are probably keeping their options open until they name a coach.

Last year Visi could be great. Be good next year and then, off the cliff!

Good players get recruited from their clubs primarily. Even if Visi has a dropoff, it is still a great school.

Visi represented VA/DC well at spooky nook. As for dad/mom coaches, St.Paul’s (mom), St. Mary’s (dad) Maryvale (dad)… are just a few mom/dad coaches. Get educated.

I feel embarrassed for the poster who keeps hating on Visi. Small stuff

With so many parents nowadays having played lax when the sport exploded and came of age, it is only natural that there will be parent coaches at the rec, club, high school and even college levels.
