[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Well, that's the problem, isn't it. One doesn't work *with* the ED, as the ED seems to believe that everyone works *for* her. I think it's great that the club affords kids an opportunity to play. But, as was pointed out during the meeting I attended, the parents of the kids on scholarships are also the ones least likely to put in volunteer hours/effort, putting even more burden on other parents. The level of control that the ED maintains makes it difficult for me (and apparently others) to consider it "our" club and want to maintain that level of effort. Let me put it to you this way: after seeing the differences between blue, white, and red teams in how they're managed, coached, and supported by the club, why in the f*ck would a white team parent, let alone a blue team parent, want to dedicate effort to supporting the club? [/quote] I get it and things do need to change so that it can be easier to work with and not for the ED. I have seen changes on how they are trying to do a better job so that all teams are made to feel equal. Hopefully the expanded struture will provide that instead of it just being a one person show. Maybe scholarship parents should be required to perform x amount of volunteer hours for the club. [/quote] Wishful thinking there!. The disparity between the Red, White and Blue teams will always be there. As one parent at the meeting said: They are lying to our faces! Our White and Blue teams are not bringing them stardom is the Red teams (the most affluent teams). All the Red teams HATE PEP training, why? Because the club is depriving them of one quality practice with their own coach and mixing them with the Blue and White teams to "made all the teams feel equal" There is also no moving /switching between the teams. Red teams literally try to recruit new players from the outside before the even take a look at the White and Blue teams. When do you EVER see them at the fields looking for talent? Right, never! Lies, lies, lies! And to the previous poster... You know the Club has about 1,000 kids on Scholarships. Tax payers money from all of us! [/quote]
