[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]First time poster here. Stumbled upon this forum. Have a daughter that has played rec and has typical been one of stronger players (coaches words not mine). Not in MS yet and looking for a club with a strong youth program. I’ve read a bunch of threads on this site and all of them seem to bash all the clubs. We have friends in LI who recommended the yellow jacket organization. So my question is: does this club, 1) have a strong youth program with decent teams? 2) what about coaches (website doesn’t offer up a whole lot and we have been told many clubs don’t keep coach pages up to date? 3) if you had a youth daughter what program would you consider?

Thanks for any insight[/quote]

You are not going to get an informative answer from anonymous internet trolls that talk bad about other programs 247.  Dcurbanmom forums are full of vitriol for one reason or another.  I would just contact the club directly and see what they have to offer so you can make an informed decision.[/quote]

Since this is the YJMA director commenting, I bet any questions can be answered here!  :lol:  :lol:  :roll: [/quote]

Nope, not associated with the program at all. Just letting them know that the vitriol comments from anonymous trolls aren’t informative to anyone.  In the end you’re just bashing a program that young girls are a part of.  [/quote]

What can be conceived as bashing is actually truth shared by many posters  here.  The club director is taking money from those young girls/families based on false promises and lies.  The club has to continually go to other clubs just to get enough players to field a team in tourneys and then the actual YJMA girls on the team don't even play.  Troll or no troll, that is the truth.[/quote]

Anyone who has common sense can see the BS listed here.

MAYJ don't have enough to field a team but also YJ players can't get on the field and don't get to play because of guests? Well, which one is it? 
You need more than a starting lineup to play a tournament. If your daughter comes out of a game and a guest player goes in, what exactly is the problem?

I saw the MAYJ 27 team play in Hershey this weekend, they didn't have a lot of subs, they played hard, won a few games. Looked like they were all enjoying it, on and off the field.

To spell it out for some, the YJMA 27 team is comprised of 28s and 27s.  There still isn't enough to field a full roster in the recent tournaments and as a result, they have had to include other players from other clubs, i.e. YJS, etc.  Come game time, the actual YJMA players get barely if any playing time as the "guests" play the whole game along with a few starters on YJMA.  What's not to understand?

Glad they had a good tourney! Out of curiosity what division are they playing in? How are they doing against M&D, Hero's, Skywalkers, Pride, Crush, NL, MCE, MDU etc? [/quote]
