[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Owner was a scammer. Also got in trouble for recruiting players from other clubs. They folded this year.

It’s too bad the Frederick area does not have a decent club. So much sprawling area. FC Frederick has a joke of a philosophy, concentrated on getting kids to play High School soccer. Then you have Alliance, FCSC, and now TOCA.

All the good players end up in NoVA, SAC or Bethesda.[/quote]

In "trouble for recruiting players from other clubs"?

Exactly what kind of trouble can a coach get into over "recruiting"?[/quote]

They broke up an Alliance Soccer Club team, not sure if '05 or '06? One of the coaches was also a head of EDP region for our DMV area, which was a conflict of interest. Complaint was filed against them at MSYSA. That coach resigned and remains at EDP now. [/quote]

That coach also decimated the 2001 Boys team that had been together for many many years.  Announced before the Spring season that he was going to AC Cugini......was recruiting players during the season---  at one point he even used a practice to bring in coached from around the region to see the boys and pitch the AC Cugini Club- at an alliance practice. He was pushed out- boys from that team spread out to at least 6 clubs that I can think of- majority of those boys play at two high schools that are close to eachother.  One ended up as 2A state champ this past year.   Those that went to Cugini left very dissapointed because it folded-  lots of angry parents and shady dealings. Team was not successful but they got to see Italy at least.

Was a money grab- selling spots in the club for teams to jump from other clubs as a whole.    Its a shame the boys 2001 was decimated, and then the 04 girls followed. [/quote]
