[quote=Anonymous]My son has never lost to them either but I don’t think that matters.  I do question what you think is attractive football because I watched them possess the ball against us for a full 2-3 minutes which does not ever happen to us.  They receive excellent technical instruction which I only get from one coach in my club and not our current coach.

They don’t have the best talent and their behavior is atrocious but they know how to develop.  They don’t care about winning which was a complaint I heard from their parents.  In that sense, they have it right.  Results do not matter for development.  If more coaches did focus on the fundamentals and technical abilities of players, you would make the club obsolete.  But locally, people are more focused on tactics and winning which makes them one of the only viable options I would consider outside of my current club.

Unfortunately, the behavior is systemic and that prevents me from fully buying into it.  I watched one of their parents approach the ref after a tackle.  I was a little in shock at the behavior and I have personally intervened in those situations.  Approaching a ref is a line I do not believe should be crossed and I was a little disappointed as I believe in what they fundamentally do.

On a completely separate team, we all saw two players fighting with each other.  My son says one called the other a 8!+ch @$$ n!@@a (neither were black) and the other was cursing all over the pitch.  I actually believe in the fundamental training environment but those are some tough pills to swallow from someone who actually believes in the coaching.

Technically, they know what they are doing and beating them is not a flex as most of the major teams, especially a SYC, will have better athletes.
