[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Achilles caters to those parents who think an abusive coach "toughens a kid up" despite studies, evidence, and even professional players saying coaches like the ones at Achilles have been harmful to their development. You can really spend your money more wisely. [/quote]

I'll bite.  Please post links to the studies, evidence, and even professional players!

As it stands, any time I see the team Achilles mentioned on this website, there appears to be one or two parents with an axe to grind, going back 2 to 3 years at least.  I don't have a horse in the race, but good grief, it's not a good look.  [/quote]
