[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I can confirm, from talking with parents on several of the top girls teams 2014-2016, they opted not to return because of KL's coaching style. [/quote]

Heard the same. When 9 out of 13/14 kids leave - that is not a good sign, and reflects poorly on the coach and the club! [/quote]

Where did they go and who is taking those slots?[/quote]

If 9 girls left, they can go wherever they want, hire a quality coach and create a new standard. People are afraid to pave a way. If the training environment is amazing, that is most important. Have an all-girls team play in a boys league. Play up in EDP. Play in GA. There are so many options but one game a week pales in comparison to the development and the training environment 3x a week and people get too caught up in that. [/quote]

I know some went to McLean and some to SYC. Much easier said than done to start a new club or team. BSC would actively work to block that team from even being able to enter or compete in tournaments and the logistics alone are daunting, fields, finding a strong coach willing to jump in. I hate to say it but you would also have to trust all the other families completely, everyone would be doing whatever they think is best for their child and at the first sign of trouble people would bail. Clubs know when families are club hoppers. There are problems everywhere, BSC has plenty. The path I often see on the boy's side is that kids that have played for two or more team, like BSC and SYC, often end up at Achilles as their last stop.[/quote]
