[quote=Anonymous]Hopefully Nashville soccer parents are more grounded than what you’ll see in that thread. I will give my perspective as a parent that has been with Barca Academy NOVA from the start 2 years ago, currently have U9 and U12 in the program. First, one of the coaches from NOVA moving to Nashville was my son’s U12 coach this year and she is wonderful. We were sorry to hear she was leaving but understand why they chose her. We’ve enjoyed the program. Coaches are all well trained and professional, most are from Spain. The training program is consistent no matter which team A/B, players receive the same training. My kids have had good development in their games, especially with their soccer IQ and understanding the game. And they make it fun. As far as competition level, it varies widely by age and team. Mostly based on chance of which players were interested in the academy. In ages where there was a lot of interest and talent to choose from, teams are competitive and improving. For other teams, the talent level is lower and progress is slower. I’d recommend especially for younger players who have a longer time to develop and recruit players. For older ages groups, it will be a challenge to recruit a lot of talent away to a brand new club. [/quote]
