[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I saw an Instagram post about Metro 15-17 National.  What is this all about? Are they expanding to have 2 travel teams for 15-17?[/quote]

Metro has always been reactionary towards Paramount. Paramount added a 12s team three years ago, then Metro just added a 12 Travel team this year. Paramount added an 11s team two years ago, Metro just announced an 11 Travel team. Paramount has established a successful programs with two teams per age group (whereas Metro has only ever formed Regional teams); now it appears Metro is trying to rebrand their Regional teams into something else. This is due to them being upset that they are no longer earning the most bids in the CHRVA Region, since Paramount is now qualifying some of their 2nd teams (in fact, Metro 15 Travel and Paramount 15-2 both played in the same division of Nationals this past season, which says something). You would think a club thats been around since 1999 would be trailblazing instead of being reactionary to a club that's only been around for 10 years. [/quote]
Lots of carefully selected facts that, while technically true, don’t really paint the full picture of the relative successes of Paramount vs Metro Travel today. But rather than trying to rebut these or provide the counter arguments (things like national rankings, open bids, recruiting success, results at nationals, etc, etc) I’ll just say that this post is a perfect demonstration of the fixation many at Paramount have with trying to one up Metro and the general negative energy that starts from the top down.[/quote]

Okay, Mrs. Nguyen. For those who don’t know, this woman is a high-powered exec in the corporate world who works behind the scenes for Metro and does their dirty work…[/quote]
You’re wrong and this is further evidence of my point about the negative culture at Paramount. [/quote]
