[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Same, our experience (5+ years) has been great. It’s a larger club, so of course there’s going to be a coach or two that aren’t favorable and or late, but it’s not the norm.

It appears most people get in here to complain and not give kudos or praise. [/quote]

100%, a few vocally unhappy or more likely the same parent or former coaches related to a specific 2015 team.

The club is well intentioned, most staff is friendly with a couple of the director’s trying to elevate the level, the last few years. Some is working, some attempts to be more ambitious are creating friction with the laid back in the family culture.

They are a very long running community club. the comments on number of pros seems silly, while  they do have DcU P2P, if you want to push your kid to be pro, go find a USL or semi-pro path and have them play up with men early.  It’s More the place of high school and D3 players which  fits the geography and player pool

I haven’t looked at the latest non-profit filing but they used to have more part time or volunteer roles and lower spend than other clubs. They are certainly not as effective at social media and hype.   their biggest expense that stood out wis field rentals and their tournament (though that used to be a revenue gen for boys )

As for the soccer, that is highly dependent on the coach, and while I see the directors out at some game they also have teams they coach.  The top tier coaches are generally competent and balanced, and there’s been fewer crazy and degrading  in my experience. They try to teach build out, though I find the variance greater on the girls teams on style of play. Caveat I have not seen the lower teams as much as practices are spread out, and it seems to be mostly higher level teams at jcc and soccerplex
