[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Playing devil's advocate...So let's say your DS is pretty good and ends up playing in college or going pro, but the coach and your son do not fit well?  Are you going to find another college or pro team to play on?  Probably not...This is a growing and learning experience for your kid as their coaches are not always going to be the right fit.  So do you want to teach your kid to move on each time adversity presents itself?  I can understand if the coach isn't nice to the players or just isn't a good person or is just a bad coach and you want to move.  But if the coach is actually pretty good at developing players, then he might want to stick it out and figure out how to deal with the situation.  At least it would only be for the Spring season...[/quote]

Lol a bad coach or a bad fit can kill a players career in the pro’s. You think it does not happen at the youth and college level? I have seen really good players quit the game at the youth level because of the coach. When a coach is changed in college the new coach will run off the a lot of the existing players. There are very few really good coaches. Most coaches just pick players who match their system and cut/bench the ones who do not match the system. Very few can successfully take the players they have and develop a system around those players.

If it’s a bad fit in travel soccer move clubs. If it is a bad fit at work, find a new job. That is the lesson one should learn.

Let’s not use “development” as the catchall for bad coaching and sh#tty treatment of players. 99% of the people posting here have no idea what age appropriate development is. Also if your kid is not having fun [b]they will quit the game[/b].[/quote]
