[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I agree, "slightly psychotic" is an incredibly kind characterization of the HOCO coach. She constantly gets in fights with the refs. And they have a terrible reputation ON and off the field. Those girls are coached to intentionally foul (and do weird stuff like bark), and they're not fun games to watch because there is a penalty/yellow card on HOCO every 10 seconds. I have several daughters in the NGLL, and have never seen a team as out of control as that team. It's not fun to see it happen against girls that young. The majority of the 2034s played up in second grade which is why the older HOCO teams aren't as good. I'm not disputing they have good players, it's just sad they're being coached to play dirty as 4th graders. Teach them how to win the right way.[/quote]

We experienced this last year (my daughter was playing up a year on a B team). Just foul after foul after foul and coach aggressively encouraging it and hounding ref for calling them on it, despite it being clear they’d crush this B team. Only other teams (coaches and players) we saw this with to some extent was Skywalkers ‘34 and CCLax ‘34. I had figured Hoco moved beyond that type of play but sounds like no. Is this an experience this season?

No idea what you mean about reputation of the team off the field. As for the coach, she definitely has a negative reputation as a HS coach from a parent perspective. I don’t know that her ‘34 team has complaints. Only one or two who left last year were due to lack of playing time. Guess those kids are a fit with her or like being No. 1 enough to stay.

It seems the ‘33 team had some sort of an exodus last year due to that coach (and maybe club). I heard she’s also a bear. [/quote]
