[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Even worse, Valor uses the parent coaches for the weakest teams. They don't care about their lower level players, its just revenue producing widgets to them.

So its like a bad rec team, with a bad rec coach, but for a travel price. [/quote]

OK ... practices are better than Rec.  But traveling 4 hours to watch the coaches daughter get yelled at and play the whole game is certainty not what I signed my daughter up for.  She's at the point where she doesn't want to waste her time going to games, especially when she has other things she could be doing.  [/quote]

Did this parent have any professional coaching experience? 
I'm baffled by this whole situation. I assume Valor is paying this parent coach the same rate they pay their real coaches.

So compared to rec----you are basically paying $2800 more than rec soccer for one extra practice a week. Run by a know-nothing parent coach.[/quote]

No professional coaching experience that I am aware of. Valor does occasionally have people walking around monitoring the practices.  I think there is some thought and preparation and effort that is going into the practices.  So it's not a total loss.  It's the games where the favortism and tone and inability to coach really is amplified.   [/quote]

Good to know we are not the only parents who feel this way. Our daughter is on this team as well and I can’t disagree with what I’ve read here regarding the Coach. Last season we saw the growth not just in our daughter but the entire team. Parents were way more into it than now and the team was fun and exciting to watch with lots of close tourney matches where they won and lost. It is a completely different vibe and tone all around from last season.[/quote

So basically the same team as last year with a few new players, but they switched from a real coach to a parent coach? [/quote]
5 from one team a few from another and 5 new to Valor.   But went from a coach to a parent coach. [/quote]
