[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hey, thanks for posting that. It puts the VYS soap opera in context.

Hmmm. I notice that Arlington parents are melting down on an another thread right now. Guess it's catching.[/quote]

Ditto Stoddert parents, Bethesda parents... Someone should start a thread about which clubs are least complained about! Reston, Herndon, Great Falls? [/quote]

I'm guessing there is no such thing as a complaint-free travel soccer club.  The various clubs our kids have played for all have room for improvement, but [b]I'd estimate that at least 75% of the complaints I've heard have more to do with parent's unrealistic expectations or ignorance about soccer than they do with a failure by the club.[/b][/quote]

Spot-on, friend. I also think DMV parents are more susceptible than most to the allure of the big elite clubs. Then once they get there, they realize it's all BS anyway. [/quote]

Yet many of us played at a D1 level, some even professionally, and the horse hit these Clubs get away with is unbelievable.

Nobody is asking for an A team spot or saying their kid deserves it, there's 6 fucking teams of such different levels/leagues/coaching a family needs to know where the kid will be before blindly accepting an offer.

That's not even a true fucking offer.  Here you go--you are one of 63 kids--no we don't know your coach or your league--give us $3k.

Those of us with experience are the ones that know this is horseshit.  Those without are walking around gloating little Sally or Johnny made Arlington---even when in the girls side every girl on the field got a spot.[/quote]
