[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Was your child abused? [b]Otherwise I can't fathom someone have a "horrible experience" with what is essentially a volunteer coached youth soccer league.[/b] Trust me - if your kid is talented enough he will be discovered and recruited for a travel team by the time he is 8 or 9. Otherwise relax and let your kids have fun playing soccer.[/quote] This is a pet peeve of mine but can people please stop referring to soccer clubs as “leagues”?[/quote] It is not ‘volunteer coached’. Stoddert coaches typically have A, B or C licenses , they teach the kids great skills and they are definitely paid a good salary.[/quote] Boys or girls? You know the Stoddert girls seems to do things different vs a lot of the big clubs in the area. The skill is not there for how much they practice. [/quote] Which age Group? Stoddert girls is all skills. They sit there practicing foot skills at season practices, all winter long, at home and at summer camps. My DD had a full year of just working on ‘shooting and finushing’ with an excellent team of coaches. They also have extra strength and agility and goal keeping clinics to sign up for. What isn’t always there is brute force kick and run results based Soccer, but no one can say that they don’t work on skills - that’s pretty much all they do. Stoddert girls play a beautiful game! Talking about travel here, right?[/quote][/quote]
