[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Clearly this hit a nerve with some "volunteer" coaches. There are many good coaches (no doubt), but do not deny that some jump on the head coach position to give their kid an unfair advantage. We definitely see it on the girls side (someone from the boys teams can chime in). I understand this is only a rec tournament of lower level players, but CYA consistently loses them to other rec programs. So maybe (just maybe) CYA is doing all-star selections in a way that does not benefit the league but just stokes the egos of coaches who's kids can't play on a level playing field. Just saying...[/quote] No one is volunteering to coach your 7 year old and spend all that time practicing and running games and dealing with the league and parents in order to sneak their kid onto a completely meaningless all star team. If someone volunteers to also coach all stars, of course their kid is on the team automatically. Leagues are begging and begging for coaches. [/quote] Wait until your kid gets to U11 and above. There are insane coaches whose lives revolve around CYA rec soccer. Go to Sully field on any given Saturday for a rec game and you can see how nuts these guys get and yell at children and other teams. No one is talking about 7 year olds bub.[/quote] The 10 and 11 year olds don't play at Sully. At that age, they are part of the Suburban Friendship League and their games are all over the place.[/quote]
