[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Latest update from VIVA

Spain only knows Bo and Carlos and they have determined they have a valid contract with Annandale United Futbol Club (AUFC). The lawyers determined that there are sufficient legal documents showing that AUFC is owned by Bo; therefore, Bo (and Carlos) had the ability to create Villarreal Virginia Academy (VIVA) when they partnered with Villarreal CF Spain. Ergo, there remains a valid partnership between VIVA and Villarreal CF Spain that will continue.

Their main goal was to start to establish a relationship and grow the project (VIVA). It was a great effort by the coaches to transform into the Villarreal CF Spain methodology to: adapt, accept, and change.

Villarreal did not formally meet with ABGC until late October/early November 2018 when they had dinner. Villarreal has no agreement with ABGC. Nowhere in any contract with Villarreal CF Spain is "ABGC" mentioned.

It is anticipated that Juan, Julio's boss, will write something for the families in a few days (near future). I think we anticipate this will be something favorable.

Summer field permits are in place (Pine Ridge and Mason??)

Fall field permits are dependent on the # of registered players and location of these players. However, it is anticipated we will have fields in the same general vicinity, perhaps even the same fields.

Villarreal CF Spain plans to continue their VIVA development with video analysis of players and coaches. Julio may not return; however, he will direct the coaching staff that does come to train our coaches and players. They very much want to build on the success that makes VIVA special.

Julio showed a quick presentation that recapped the goal to "build partnerships" to grow the program. It included a slide on working to develop VIVA coaches and players. And it also included the slide (we have seen before) depicting the goals: soccer awareness football IQ; Character, leader; and Competence.

The "now" plan is to continue with a goal of let's see where we go...

It is anticipated they will return in the fall for shorter stays and follow us from Spain. Bo and Carlos came in later and committed to maintain a full-time Spanish presence with VIVA.

Bo and Carlos discussed that coaches still cannot openly/publicly discuss where they are going until this current contracts are finished, around June 16th when summer season commences.

well, sorry Bo and Carlos, but … lets put things in perspective here.   All sounds very uncertain and conditional.  Let's start with the fields - if not enough kids sign up, they will get grass fields at elementary schools in the fall.  VReal is basically pulling out - Julio will not return, coaches may come for a few days and will coach remotely form Spain :)  All sounds like they are on the way out.   Sort of giving another chance until next screw up which will most likely happen given Carlos's expertise.

All of this is nothing compared to financial problems.  Bo is used to getting paid 80K.  But now he will not even be able to pay himself.  After paying for the fields and other coaches will be nothing left.  These guys are coaches - not business people.

Their thing will fold after the fall season.  Sponsor are also not lining up.  Best kids have already signed with other clubs.  I like Bo, and feel sorry for him.   He had a good job and now had been played by Carlos. Bo hates Laliga and Spanish soccer, which he sated to many players and parent on the filed just a couple of years ago.  Now he has to kiss some Spanish a....s :) Sorry Bo.
