REV Soccer Only CHAT, No drama please

Add in nonstop drama, blurred boundaries between coaches and parents, and a reputation in the local soccer community that people openly laugh at, and it becomes clear the focus is not on the players anymore. Youth soccer should be about growth, discipline, safety, and development, not politics, ego, and off field nonsense. Staying in an environment like that does not build resilience or character. It just wastes time and money while kids fall behind. Leaving is not disloyalty. It is choosing a healthier, more professional place for your child to actually improve.

You just described 90% of all youth soccer clubs.

They didn't renew his contract. He is no longer with the club.

Fired because he’s better than the “directors” with all their super duper licenses and phony accents. They couldn’t stomach a humble guy from El Salvador schooling them on football knowledge.

VRSC is a toxic cesspool of snakes and rats.

Source? And no, "it's my opinion" doesn't count. If anything VRSC is amongst the worst in this department.

You mean he is happy to be "here" and doesn't talk about what a crap hole America is and how stupid 'mericans are?

Congrats to the parents at VRSC, NVA and Loudoun on your successful dismantling of VRSC. And for what, because your kid isn’t getting enough playing time? You just screwed over the 15 other families from your team and all the others. Jerks.

The question one should ask is how you have all this inside information and most of the parents in this club are kept in the dark. Clearly your son is a favorite and given deep preference. Why is information not provided equally to all parents? It's typical of VRSC to crap on their customers and intentionally keep them in the dark. You would think Adam is running this organization.[u]

The answer is that this is not some favored parent. This toxicity is from the administration at VRSC. Constant shit posts to keep this thread on top of the forum.

What? That's crazy. No one is sending out offers for the 26/27 yet unless your kid is the next Mia Hamm.

That's what you think, but there are many kids across many clubs that already know exactly where they'll be playing next year.... Realistically if you're top 3 or 4 player on a team, you don't think the club has already extended an offer. It's not as if a team is going to be able to bring in say 16 kids better than your current top 3 or 4 players.

Sure but you're telling me some kid who has been playing at GFR Is now considered one of the top 3 or 4 kids on VRSC's 09 team? Find that very hard to believe having a fairly decent knowledge of both of those teams.

Yep, and you haven’t even seen the best ones yet from GFR.

Actually, I have. The best ones left years ago. A couple good players still there but they won’t beat out the current players for starting positions on a team with 22 on the roster already

I seen who they think are starters. 1/2 of the players actually don’t deserve the starting role and when they do mess up, they are never, ever corrected or held accountable. The result is they never get better. Unfortunately, once a coach make a decision on a certain player, it is very hard to change their opinion. This means some mediocre players get priority over players who are significantly better. Some coaches hold players responsible immediately and they aren’t very well regarded either.

We left FCV/TSJ because of CC and then he came to VRSC and turned it into FCV with the misogyny, favoritism, lack of transparency.

Not wearing shin guards and comparing it to getting a girl pregnant is a NO NO. Your mom banging your coach for more minutes is ok! Lol

Were those kids able to survive and go see their mental health professional to get over the fact that a coach told them to work hard or they'll amount to nothing, while they signed up to play competitive sports and pay a hefty amount.

You make your point well, however, it’s never appropriate for an adult to talk this way to a teenager no matter how big of babies they are. If the coach doesn’t like the quality of his players that he selected, maybe he should find other players.

If he wanted quality players he should have taken a job at a better club.

Moms put a lot of work in with other coaches/admins to get boys on the team. A lot of times, it's hard to believe but there are many kids on teams that the coaches don't want but because of the family, connection to club or its members and other variables, those kids have to be on those teams
