[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What was really funny is that these UEFA certified Spaniard coaches did not know local clubs so they didn't give a sh*t who your kid claimed to play for before.

You were based solely on what they saw in front of them--not your stupid former travel placement.

Parents also were not allowed down near the fields or on the fields during practices. No parent managers. Parents didn't talk to coaches there was a central manager and you would email if your kid would be out sick or injured. If you wanted to discuss anything else- development, etc. you had to schedule through the central manager and then the TD and coach would meet you.

This really cut out 99% of the politics that are rampant in Club soccer.  Unfortunately, as word grew some of those annoying parents started filtering over and trying to make it like a regular US club team--bugging coaches, brown-nosing--and then it folded.  After Covid and not being able to get coaches over from Spain--and then not being able to get fields because pretty much Clubs here wanted to block them.[/quote]

Pre-annoying parents, that sounds ideal.

What are the names of the coaches that were part of the Barca VA program that are still around the area?[/quote]

Pretty sure a few of them went over to the FCV boys side when they took over those teams.[/quote]
