[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Saw a comment in the thread that made it seem like RM was let go vs. leaving. Anyone know what that's about? Any feedback regarding his coaching? [/quote] RM talks a very good game - my child and I were impressed at our Spring meeting last year b/c he seemed to offer a very solid training plan with extensive promises of what he would bring to the team. Unfortunately, it proved to be a lot of talk with very little to back it up. Video review from games? Team was told to watch the game on their own and record the number of positive and negative touches they had. Recovery sessions requiring the purchase of several items? Happened once in the fall. He made his decision on formation before ever watching the team play together and figuring out their strengths and weaknesses on the field. He NEVER changed the formation despite the fact that it didn't work. His practices were unorganized and he allowed several of the kids to run over him and tell him what they wanted to do. He fostered an environment of toxicity amongst his players by criticizing several players in front of the team and holding others on a pedestal (FWIW, my child was both on the pedestal at times and publicly humiliated at others). [b]Ultimately, he was asked to take a different team for the 2024-25 season[/b] for which he initially agreed. Between accepting a different assignment and the coaches' meeting to plan for next year he decided to go elsewhere. He left Valor at the end of a practice one night with a tournament and four regular season games, not to mention weeks of practices, still remaining. [/quote] Kind of sad that they would just try sticking another team with the problem instead of just getting rid of him. They seem to really struggle with hiring coaches.[/quote]
