[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Communication is definitely a personal measure. I’m a different Barca parent than PP.  I like the centralized communication. I have never tried to schedule a meeting with an age group coordinator or TD. I have no desire to speak with coaches other than a friendly hello. I take my kid to the field, watch from the sidelines, they are having fun, so I don’t have any need for meetings.  Personally I don’t care which team they are playing on, how much playing time they get, how good is the player pool,  I don’t second guess strategies or positions, just a happy cheering spectator on the sideline. The system works very well for me. I recognize that it is a different communication model than the typical clubs around here, and may not work for everyone.[/quote]

Me too.  And I used to not be this way.  What has allowed me to be this way is the centralized messaging, no parent volunteers, no direct coach access.  I am in the ‘so refreshing’ category.  But, I have talked with a few other parents that don’t like this.  They are used to being very involved in the process, at a level I’ve never been comfortable with.  For some it is also their first child playing.  I think the system does weed out those that want to always chat with coaches and TD and want a more typical travel Club experience. As far as talent pool, my kids have players on their teams that came over from very competitive teams from competitive Clubs in the area.  I am lucky that my kids’ age groups have a talented pool because I will definitely agree with the other pp that it is not the same across all age group/genders.  Some lower age groups can beat the age group above them, etc.  But, at 1.5 years old, I do see that changing from the players within being continually developed and the more kids I have been seeing coming to check it out. My kids love the coaches/training/teammates.  I like that I don’t see the blatant political BS.  I think at any Club, people will have different experiences and I don’t think any naysayers are making things up.

My kids do go back to play with old teammates and I can definitely see a much greater improvement in their game since they’ve been here.[/quote]
