[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We completely disagree with the previous post. That person is out of line and is unprofessional for mischaracterizing Coach Marcel and his team of stellar coaches.  Our son has been taking the class since he was 2 and he absolutely loves it as do we.   He is now 5 and is growing tremendously.  In addition to the weekly class he takes at St. Albans on Saturday, he also plays in the DC Stoddert Soccer League with his classmates at school on Saturdays.  There, we get to see him implement the fundamentals and teamwork effort that he has been learning with Kids Pro Soccer.  Our 3 year old daughter has also been taking the class since she was 2 and we have also seen her develop a liking for soccer and looks forward to attending class each Saturday with Coach George. She also re-creates the drills at home.

We are most appreciative of the seriousness, passion, commitment, and dedication of Coach Marcel, Coach George and the other coaches our children have had. Let's be clear - this is an opportunity for children to learn, grow and develop fundamental skills that they can use as they begin to play competitively. We have personally seen children run around pulling their shirts up and rolling around in the grass and on the floor (when it is held indoor) as if they are barnyard animals and as if this is a wrestling class.  This class is for parents who are serious about exposing their children to soccer and want them to be taught by trained, former college and professional soccer players.  They are not babysitters and it is unfair for the coaches to have to stop and correct your children.  Do not bring them simply because you want to find something for your untrained children to do. These coaches are not babysitters. Train your children at home and then evaluate whether they want to play a sport that requires dedicated attendance in order to learn and grow. If not, find a class that is taught by babysitters. You cannot simply pay the fee for the program, realize your untrained child is not wired for the class and then expect the coaches to turn your child into Pele after one appearance and then demand a refund. Coaches are not rude - they are fun, yet serious and will work with children who want to learn and grow.

The classes our son and daughter take have been run consistently and on time.  If there is bad weather, the class is cancelled with PLENTY of notice and a makeup is scheduled with notice.  The company communicates via email effectively all necessary information about registering, makeups and cancellations.  Should there be any additional concerns, you should address them with the coach instead of trying to defame a reputable program that our children and other children enjoy immensely. [/quote]
