[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Former Achilles parent here - It’s true on the higher division teams that not all players get to play in a match.  Also, Sal frequently brings in kids from other clubs (e.g., DC United) to play in the tournaments and they end up getting far more playing time than some of the Achilles players.  If your son will struggle with this prospect then before committing to the club I would ask Sal if he plans to continue these situations in the fall, or if his model is going to change. It’s a new(ish) club so it’s possible. [/quote]

Are parents really ok with non-club kids playing instead of theirs in tournaments!?[/quote]

No.  It shows the club’s claim that it is about development over winning is complete BS. Sal wants to make a name for himself and that comes first.

As for St. John’s - it is my sense that it didn’t allow Sal to use the fields as much as he needs because some teams have fewer practices than the club committed, so the club is looking into other options. This is all just speculation since the club never communicated why there are fewer practices than we paid for (while other teams get 3), what the plan is, etc. [/quote]

Agree with all of this. It’s total BS. We didn’t know any of this going in. [/quote]
