Why do you think US teams suck in the international arena?? Before patriots jump on the whole women’s team being world champs more than anyone just remember two undisputed facts:
1) they played and won most of their trophies when the planet didn’t care about women’s soccer (those tourneys had like 12 total teams, some being china and North Korea LoL)
2) now that the rest of the world empowers female soccer we are seeing how QUICKLY those nations have surpassed us in under a decade.
Make of that what you will and keep supporting these foreigner ‘coaches’ who have anger management problems and couldn’t cut it in their places of origin.

He’ll be out of the club in under 18 months. Don’t ask how it’s known……

Why is VRSC paying his uefa license PLUS the airfare and lodging in Wales? This combined is anywhere in the tune of $10,000.

It isn’t illegal but, is Jim truly that wealthy he cares not about burning cash on someone with shoddy reputation and subpar coaching skills???? This type of behavior in the USA is extremely bizarre - people from the outside wondering how parents accept this monumental level of deceit and fleece

I think his daughter lives in Wales. Yikes

Follow the money. Did he help promote a player who has dealings with JM's other company due to his position? Follow the money and you will have your answer.

They only advance their favorites and it’s entirely individual coach opinion, no other criteria. Watch how many kids leave this club in the spring as a result of their ignorance and maltreatment of players. Outside of these two individual coaches, there is zero input from anyone else.

And now they're bringing in GD and some of his cronies from GFR which does absolutely nothing to help this club.

GFR parent - GD and VRSC 2011 parent’s are not going to get along well. That’s abundantly clear for this thread…

It is said before. Gf parents are terrible, especially at the 11 age group but others as well. Expect that they will push out all of us existing 11 parents from the club with their aggression.

Meanwhile, there are plenty of girls out there quietly showing up, playing lights-out week after week, and somehow never quite making the list. So I was just wondering… are players sent in are club favorites, or are U.S. scouts the ones doing the choosing?

Not trying to stir up trouble,just trying to connect the dots.

It’s mostly club favorites unless there is a clear superstar. But even in that case the superstar will of course also be a coach favorite. There really isn’t much differentiation among players at a club despite parents who think their child is special. Many players are hard working and deserving. The club wants to send players who best represent the club and coaches, and also reward loyal players and families. Sometimes promises are made in order to recruit players to the club or prevent players from leaving.

While the selection process is flawed also realize these selections mean very little in college recruiting. Especially for the younger ages. Everybody knows clubs get invites to hand out and these talent ids are a dime a dozen. Like student of the month at school. For the few special players who are truly at the YNT level, who are selected and attend the regional or national camps, the scouts know who they are already from watching them at showcase events. If you aren’t sure if your child is at that level, then I have to break it to you: they aren’t.

So ALL selection processes are flawed with humans in the loop so that says nothing. But your statement that “there really isn’t much differentiation among players at a club” is a real loser argument. Of course there is, just watch a couple games and it’s pretty clear there is. You might have tried to provide an honest neutral answer but sounds like you’re a bit bitter on how your kid stacks up. Is their bias, yep. Do we all have some bias, yep. You got a solution, nope. Work hard, train hard, take risks, look for the best opportunity to excel and then maybe you make it to the top. No guarantees in life or soccer is a cliche but true. Best of luck to all the kids.

What I meant to say is there aren’t many true standout players on the typical ECNL/GA team. Of course some players are better than others on the same team. But they are mostly all just good players. There are very few great players and most teams don’t have any great players. Just because a player is the best on their team doesn’t make them a great player. YNT is for the great players. But these clubs have talent id spots to fill so the just good players have to get them. The problem becomes when these just good players (and their parents) with a talent id start thinking they are great. The coaches know the difference.

Ok, with you now!

I don't believe the person saying these parents are bad is an insult. I'm not the above poster and I don't know the age group colors, but one of the teams at that age group has pretty bad parents. Bive seen them advocate for their kids to injure other teams players. I really hope they do t come to this club, it will not help it in any way.
