[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For the record as a parent who will going to watch an Achilles game this weekend as they are one of three teams my son is considering, I would much rather deal with a coach who may have had a temper in the past but has learned to correct it than you parents that jump from one Achilles thread to the next with the same lame @$$ stuff from the past.

I find your parenting style abusive…are they really living that rent-free in your head?

You are only keeping these soft-as-Charmin parents who have anxiety if their kid is not on the A team away which is perfect.  [B]Those of us who prioritize development over wins know the 3-5 clubs in the area that develop players and Achilles is one of them.[/B][/quote]

You can't seriously believe Achilles developed those kids.  If you had said their trainers developed them, sure I would 100% agree.  But Achilles?  Or any other local MLS Next club in fact.  Laughable.[/quote]

You can ignore this poster. Their kid wasn't selected a couple years back, so every comment is through an ugly lens.

My advice for tryout is attend as many of the ID sessions as possible--I think there are 3 total for each age group.  May also want to reach out now to see if you can attend a practice session or two. That will really give you a sense of things.  We love it there. [/quote]

Not the PP. I have watched this club from inception.  My kids are mostly done with club soccer.  I will say it takes a specific kid to deal with this coach.  Most won't do well, but some at a younger age can take it.  Especially if you're not the one being yelled at. As the kids get older, they know what they are getting into and may be able to deal with him.

I know that they overpromise kids to the mls next team and then will move them down. As a parent you should fully understand where your kid fits in with the team.  If your kid isn't going to be a starter, don't expect to be on the first team. [/quote]
