[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Does FCV leadership always allow parents to stand/play/interact during the coach's training session at Hanson park? All the time I see parent's and families on the field during sessions and not in the bleachers or off the field where they should be. Is that entitlement on the parents/families? Is that poor communication from FCV? A mix of both?[/quote]

It's new. When BP was around parents weren't allowed anywhere near the training fields (couldn't walk your child up to practice, parents had to stay in the parking lot).  Since AB took over, he's opened it up and it's like the wild west[/quote]

I call BS on this.  We would either walk around the fields (all of them) for exercise or sit and watch practice.  We did this for both my younger dd and hs age dd.  Last I checked BP didn't own evergreen (where they practiced at the time).  No negative impact to my dd either. Many parents - especially dads did this.

I call BS on this.  Walking around the fields for exercise is different than stand/play/interacting during the coach's training session.  If you sat and watched that must be at Hanson once a week because to do that at Evergreen you'd have to sit at the bar and use binoculars to see field 3 or 4.  BP didn't own evergreen but he had very strict rules for the parents (couldn't be there for practice, couldn't be there for some scrimmages - if you don't know this your DD didn't play for him) - my comment was those rules are no longer in place[/quote]
FCV was really two completely different experiences. GA under BP operated very different than non-GA travel teams. Different fields. Different rules about watching practice and scrimmages. There are people posting here, arguing with each other about what FCV was like, when they are both correct because one is talking about GA and other is not.[/quote]

“My kid was on the 3rd team at FCV and we could watch practice”

High five? Point made? Paying 3k to watch practice?[/quote]

Did any age groups even have three teams?[/quote]

At the younger ages they do, meaning like U10/U9[/quote]
