Probably not CL, know her 1st hand. Great Coach. |
A 12yo tearing an ACL is extremely rare. Typically 1 of 2 things; genetic disposition re: the ACL, or dangerous practices. Nkt at STJ so I can’t speak to the latter. If you’re a parent and you think practicing violently is making your kid and team tough, you really need to think hard: are you building them up, or beating them up? Either case can look similar. |
Look an entitled DMV POS. Log off and go teach your kid to be a decent human. Oh wait…. YOU can’t. And you get anyone fired who tries. |
ok. but name another female coach at STJ |
NOT EXTREMELY RARE: https://www.uclahealth.org/news/article/acl-tears-in-young-athletes-at-epidemic-levels#:~:text=Studies%20have%20shown%20that%20the,will%20sustain%20an%20ACL%20tear.&text=When%20teen%20athletes%20have%20a,will%20have%20an%20ACL%20tear. https://projectplay.org/news/2023/11/22/analysis-serious-knee-injury-among-teen-athletes-grows-26 These types of injuries for young athletes are on the rise. |
She is a great coach and it was an incredible hire. Next clue. It was a very small number of loud and always complaining families that got unnamed coach fired for being “abusive” (read: expected and taught discipline and respect). AB then saw an opportunity to scapegoat said coach for all his fnck ups. Now you can do math. |
The rate for adult women soccer players is roughly 18%. The result for youth girls players is 0.013%…and of that 0.01% are complete tears. Yes… an ACL injury in a 12 year old girl is rare. And like I said, it’s typically genetics or dangerous practice. Why?! Because young kids don’t produce the force needed from landing and cutting due to their lower body weight, less muscle and slower speeds, as well as overall less rubbing of the ACL in the joint (less wear). |
….08s are mid table in NCSL lol. “What a coach” |
This person clearly knows it all. Lol. There have been 10-12 acl tears in the 12-16 age group alone in past year in nova alone. That's tragic. |
| Word is that it is CL who got let go. Fighting with the kids like DR did. |
Yeah… mid table in the fifth best travel league (ECNL, GA, RL, EDP) alone deserves a boot. 08s are like Juniors in high school applying to college? Why burn the $4k for that? |
| Is that official that CL is gone? She's still on the website, tho that is sometimes out of date. |
Who cares? |
Obviously I do. |
| I would also like to know. |
