[quote=Anonymous] One club, one home, on family has been forgotten throughout the development ethos.

What used to be Academy no longer serves its purpose. Instead of trained coaches, they started using the parent volunteer model.

Academy Select the next tier is having tryouts. This shows the too lazy to development mindset. Having tryouts for 6,7, and 8 years olds is shortsighted. Revolution used to provide a fun environment where all young kids were developed and encouraged to pursue the next tier of soccer as a goal. This used to be the pipeline for VRSC travel soccer.

On the travel side, Revolution’s recent strategy is to hire young adult with no people management or little coaching experience at a discounted salary, and to coach with the second and third teams. 
The club should be focusing on those second and third teams in order to strengthen the program and promote from within. Instead the directors are caught in a political musical chair competition for who is going to coach the older  MLS and GA teams.

Most of the directors talk about development and pathways, yet they consistently coach the older age groups. The Technical Director or now Youth Program Director has produced nothing program related. There is no club, philosophy, identity, and strategy. Instead CC and company keep  hiring external talent to do their job. The new hires seem qualified let’s just hope it’s not to late to right the boat for our sake.
