Again, no one is passing McLean because of obnoxious coaching.

Awesome that you are aware of everything!! How do you do it??

My daughter is on a team that has multiple northern va residents.

Reasoning: Bethesda’s best players joined McLean and displaced the less talented McLean players. These players then joined Bethesda. Hence, the reason your DD’s team has multiple VA residence.

ROFL. ok. do whatever it takes to make yourself feel better about where your daughter ended up

Hey Kev,

Stop being the ECNL Director of just the teams you coach. BSC is not structured like MRM, and you are in the big leagues of youth soccer now. Show leadership and map a direction for ALL teams under your purview which you are being paid to do.

The way each team seems to be in their own silo, does not help the club in the long run (or maybe you don't care).

Which team is your daughter on?

This thread is a complete load of crap from parents who know nothing of Bethesda's History, it's coaches, or it's previous players.

It's a shame how people post anonymously and cannot be held accountable. The lack of truth over the past 10 pages is absolutely ridiculous especially when it comes to players leaving.

I cannot speak about Kevin as I have no experience with him. Plenty of experience with Dave, who is a good man and good coach.

FYI, as a parent of DCs who graduated in '16 and '19, I do know what I am speaking of. For those that are clueless, the age change had a major affect on teams 5 years ago. When these teams split, some kids played up, some stayed on age, and some left for another club with other players they likes. Absolutely nothing to do with coaches.

As for now a days, kids change clubs at U14 and under. It's normal for parents/players not to like a coach, teammates, or parents. Happens at every club. Always has, always will.

Bunch of beginners here, sheesh!

^keep telling yourself that the posters don’t know anything. A lot of us have been through this with older kids. There is plenty of truth on the last 10 pages

^^ Ditto. I know BSC well and have three kids who played in college.

Based upon what you said above, you’re clueless and your information is outdated by at least 5 years. So, as they say in any civilized country, please STFU!

Agreed! It's parents that don't like Bethesda for one reason or another. It's ignorant. Could be a couple of parents posting multiple times posing as different people.

I'd bet money it is mostly Mclean parents and or current and former Potomac parents. Who else can I add, Metro United parents. Parents that have thin skin and don't like criticism.

That was me idiot. I also just posted the above. Obviously you're math skills are off. DD graduated in '19. Do yourself a favor and look at commits from '19.

You’re calling parents thin skinned because they don’t like their DD to be constantly yelled, belittled and verbally abused, then so be it.
