[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kid's team played SYC 07 this weekend, too. There was definitely something fishy about their roster in that it seemed to change mid-tournament. I am not going to quibble about players being pulled up or down. If it's allowed it's allowed, whether it seems fair to me or not. Besides every team who can does it. Not sure why people are fixated about SYC on this issue when other clubs do it all the time. But I really don't understand how a team can add players mid-tournament, which is what clearly happened. My kid's team has played SYC many times and we happened to see an early game. They had several new players in the later games (and it is reflected in the outcomes).

SYC has a lot of strong players. Nothing bad to say about the kids. I have a kid in a different age group and I think that SYC team is excellent as well and seems very well-trained and coached. But I need to second that the behavior of parents this weekend was  strange and obnoxious. I would never let me kids try out for SYC after this weekend. [/quote]

There was a very fishy result in the bottom bracket for this age group on the boys side.  DS is on the Bridge team. They lost 2-1 to the SYC team after leading 1-0 and there was nothing between the teams--SYC got a late goal to win it from the great individual play of #40. Then my DS team lost 1-0 to a team that SYC beat [i]8-0[/i].  There was no way there was that much of a gulf between any of those teams after watching them.  Then Sunday SYC struggled to beat the Arlington team 2-1 and son's team beat them 3-0 -- it was the only match of the weekend that wasn't that competitive.  The 8-0 stands out as totally suspect.[/quote]

Unless you are standing on the sidelines with a roster in hand accounting for every player during every game, you have no idea who was or was not present for any one game. All the assumptions about nefarious or questionable outcomes is simply sad, especially when you're talking about the bottom bracket of an 07 age group.  Good grief! [/quote]
