If you mean 1 coach engaged in a coup to get half the team to go with them, then yes, this is correct. She was at NIT doing the same thing. Looking to pull more players away.[/quote]

As someone who witnessed this first hand, this statement is flat out wrong.  There was no "coup."  A confluence of factors came together for the exodus to happen.  Many families were unhappy with the club's leadership and culture and were looking for a change.  When a very well-liked and dynamic coach and club administrator moved to Maryland and decided to join up with Wolves, several of the families (which included kids at multiple age levels) decided to follow.  This led to others, particularly in younger age groups where many were recruited into the club by the departed coach, to decide to stay with their friends and coaches and switch clubs.  The transition to the new club has been very positive for most, if not all, involved and word has started to get out.  The field hockey world is very small and, like it or not, people are always looking around (too much in my opinion).  If people are unhappy with a club, they will talk to other programs.  If you build a culture that people appreciate and gravitate towards, you don't have to "pull more players away," they come to you.[/quote]
