[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Anyone attend the SYC Town Hall.  If so how did it go?[/quote]
The town hall was good. The most important things were; (1) The fall of 2019 leagues will be edp for blue, ccl2 for orange and NCSL for white and lower. In 2020 it will be CCL1 for blue, CCL2 for orange and NCSL for white and lower. This was good. (2) SYC is reducing the parent influence by volunteer parents in both coaching and management of teams. This will happen by removing the academy manager role and making sure there is a manager for every team. Current academy managers had a problem with this and spent the last 30 minutes arguing about this. I guess they don’t want to loose their benefits. They feel without them the age groups will fall apart. I think this is a good thing, I am tired of blue parents dictating what our teams do, that some how they know everything and we need their leadership to survive. This would be the most impactful change to my family’s  experience at this club. (3) New uniforms in the fall and soccer.com rather than the soccer store we currently use. I think this is good too, things will be less expensive and we will have the convenience of being delivered to our home. (4) Tryouts in May and will be announced soon as well as who the coaches will be.

I  feel am very optimistic.

(1) Great for SYC!
(2) LOL..  You have a board that pushes their kids agenda and removes barriers for their children.  SYC is not a big club and the community is what makes it work.  From what I see, most parents that complain are the ones that do not know anything about soccer and will never be happy.   Nor would they step up to help out.  These volunteers put more time and deal with more drama for $25 or $50 off a season.  STFU!
(3) Again, SYC will stop supporting the local Springfield Soccer Store to move to soccer.com.  A great way to support the local community.  I guess the parents will lose their discount (Pro tip:  BRYC still uses them)  Great news for the board and getting free gear and discounts at soccer.com.  I remember when we were at the club Woody would use the Adidas points to give the volunteers at the Rec level gear through a raffle at the end of the year.  Those days are gone and I heard SYC stopped investing in Rec.  
(4) Why not April?
