[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]And some people are just obsessed with shitting on Lula. She has done many great things for the community and for women in the sport. Keyboard warriors and trolls move on [/quote] So much for women that her club has 1 female coach and no female directors. And let's be honest, she has had plenty of opportunity to employ one with the amount of directors that have left in just the last 10 years. She can keep pushing these narratives, but nobody with an ounce of brains believes it that's been around her.[/quote] I'd push back on this. Licensed Female coaches are just hard to come by in this area. [/quote] Not one though? Can't entice a single female coach to come be a director? Currently has 2 male directors on the travel side. By my count, another 11 male directors have been employed and left/been let go in the last 7 or so years. "Leads" an organization that holds female only licenses and can't get any of them to come over as coaches? She doesn't value women coaches because if she did, she would have them in her organization.[/quote] Wow! You sound crazy. She has some great female hires. And for what it’s worth, it’s hard to keep coaches, female or otherwise. There is a lot of turnover in the travel coaching biz.[/quote] To your first point, name them... To your second, that is true. Again, was answering the assertion that she has been good for women and the community. I would argue that its pretty telling where the club is now vs where it was before the SYC exodus. They aren't attracting the top coaches or ones with licenses. There's a reason.[/quote] Just keeping track of 11 directors over 7 years and posting about that makes you sound over invested/ slightly crazy. I will share a personal opinion though, since they joined ECNL RL, you can gain a real sense of what the club can or cannot do. And by looking at their public ECNL RL record this year, you can truly see how they are doing as a club (in comparative sense to other clubs). Unfortunately, those records are unflattering up and down the board for boys and girls. And now because of that, it is tougher to attract serious coaches. But yes, you’re comparing apples to oranges. LMVSC = grassroots and bridge to travel/ community sports program/ there is a slot for every player at every level. -vs- SYC= type A winning is everything/ they want national level success in MLS Next and GA/ slots are not offered to all players at tryouts. LMVSC is doing good things, hiring talented travel Coaches is hard, keeping them around is even harder. [/quote] 11 directors in 7 years can be two things in my opinion. 1) Very poor decision making in hiring practices and 2) she can be very difficult to work with and unable to keep own talent that she decided to hire. [/quote]
