[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Two questions:

So ... do you go with the better coaching staff or the better players?  MU’s staff is better while FCV’s players are better. Which team should your daughter choose and why?

Also, if FCV, do you throw your morals out the window and let your kid play for a staff of self-interested jerks or guide her to play for a team that has players that are good, but not as good and coaches that are better, and/or at least better humans?

FCV is better in coaching and players. Not even close. And this isn’t a knock on George or Spencer, but FCV coaching is on another level. [/quote]

Not true at all. I know all of these coaches and have had my DD train with all of them many times. FCV coaches are not better than George and Spencer. The training they do are very similar between the clubs. All do rondos for warms up including keep away, free play with Pugg goals and small sided, small field games to handle pressure situations. The way they handle players is the biggest difference.  George and Spencer are more player's coaches and create a more friendly and supportive environment but can still be tough on the kids when needed. The two are both former players and at times join the players on the field. Bobby P is more of a sideline coach and administrator overseeing the sessions. Gus D is a former player will who will sometimes join the field to demonstrate but also is a sideline coach.

Bobby P probably does a better job of promoting his club (social media, connections to USSF staff, etc). If that's what you mean by another level then fine but from a pure coaching standpoint the clubs are very similar. [/quote]

If you’ve had your kid trained by the FCV coaches, you’d know that what you described is not how FCV typically trains. But you already knew that.[/quote]

Let's all attend an FCV training session and watch Bobby P demonstrate his mad skills with the soccer ball... :roll:  :roll:  :roll: [/quote]

George Hales is a former player? His bio mentions going to college. I don’t think he played. Please clarify.[/quote]
