[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We're at BRYC on the girls side and administration is just fine. Coach is responsive, communicative and organized; parent team manager does a great job pushing out info. No complaints.  Coaching staff (current and next year's) held a parent meeting a few weeks ago - also attended by club management - and shared clear, specific information about next year, answered questions, and seem to have a well-organized plan moving forward.  No complaints.   [/quote]

Our family is happy at BRYC, practices are great, coaching is great, player evaluation was great, college exposure this year was amazing. My daughter joined with no idea how the college process works, didn't know how to email coaches, the club educates the players on that and much more. [/quote]

Sounds like someone struck a nerve.  [/quote]

9:44am BRYC poster here - nope, no nerves were struck. Just responding to the OP's original request to rate my club administratively.

But to respond to your snark - because this is an open forum and I can - I know some people take issue with the BRYC coach referenced above. I respect that and understand why; he's not everyone's cup of tea and his behavior as a coach hasn't always been admirable. But I also know there are likely an equal number of parents and players who find him to be a good coach who pushes the kids to improve, and is results-oriented. I don't think anyone could look at the BRYC U16s (03s) and not say he's had something to do with their success. Yes, there's some good raw talent there (some of which was developed elsewhere, as is the case on pretty much ANY DA or ECNL team), but he's had a hand in their development in my opinion.

If you look at the better-known travel coaches and TDs in the area clubs, everyone one of them has strengths and weaknesses, fans and critics. They're people, after all.  Not sure you'll find anyone who is universally loved. They're in a position to make tough decisions that impact people's kids. Sooner or later, they're going to piss someone off. [/quote]

This is the probably the most accurate evaluation I've seen of this coach.
I think while most parents would agree that he is good at developing, improving, and pushing kids to get better(when he is interested in doing so), several would stop the compliments at the touch line.
I'd say most parents know what they've getting in him and are willing to accept everything that comes along with it because they're happy with the training and development.

Sounds typical of an ECNL coach, they will play the best players most of the time, McLean and BrYC are the strongest 2 teams in the Mid Atlantic conference from 15-19. Part of this is because both clubs play to win games when u15 comes around...[/quote]

No, the reason was they had established teams set in place before DA and ECNL expansion.[/quote]
