[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Bethesda has to be the most toxic club I've ever seen. Lots of marketing, but if you are on anything other than their 1 team you are just a revenue stream to them. Promotions half the time are not based on merit but rather based on who you know. Lots of back channel communication that you will never be aware of. They literally have a guy who has never touched a ball in his life coaching the U10 Pre-ECNL team next season. JH is a social engineer and a fraud.[/quote]

I don’t know JH personally or have any idea what you’re talking about, but you do realize you are talking about the third team coach of 9 year olds? It’s a low team of third and fourth graders and you’re complaining about a guy who used to coach first teams at Potomac and has been a coach over a decade. Who are you expecting to coach a low team of kids still playing 7v7?

I am not even a BSC fan, left for our own reasons. Some of the criticism is comical. [/quote]

Well the 3rd and 4th teams pay the same amount as the 1st and 2nd, should their coaching be at least adequate? I am not saying just cause you pay you should be on a better team, but you should still expect a coach who will train your kid to be better.[/quote]

Some coaches are better than others. Of course. And everybody deserves an adequate coach. Just seems a bit over the top to say he’s a “fraud” when he actually has a decent resume and has been around a while. And yes, coach assignments do matter by level of team. He’d probably have a higher team if he was more highly regarded. Just how it goes. BSC does the parent surveys. I don’t know if anyone reads it and how much it factors into assignments.

ET is largely responsible for this coaching assignment so take it up with him if you have a problem. DA, 4th team coach, has actually been around a number of years now and works great with young kids and their development, but for whatever reason ET seems to keep him low every year. So, in the end, I actually agree with you on that front that I’d take the 4th team coach over the 3rd. [/quote]
