that was directed to this guy
Stop with the development crap you obviously work for a CCL club. If you knew what your talking about you would know they hardly ever move players up or down after their initial assessment at age 9. Only reason clubs do what they do is money. So they can group all the teams in one place on the same day, its about hiring fewer coaches and get more out of field time, has nothing to do with development.[/quote]

There is more than one of "those guys".  Many of us have the same exact beef.

It's very arrogant and condescending to be putting down other leagues, teams, coaches and the kids that play for them.  Despicable.

CCL's concept is fine.  However, many of the clubs don't use it as how it was designed.  No players are moving around, rosters being rotated except for now in the 2 weeks before most tryouts as they catch wind many of their players are fed up and leaving.  CCL is not competitive for many teams exactly because there is no pro/rel. it wouldn't be needed if the clubs kept to a reasonable size anyways.  It is really for the convenience of the coaches in these massively large clubs.  And the no poaching is also about the clubs not their players.  Many of us would loved to be poached--keeps clubs on their toes working to keep everyone happy. If you were actually doing right by your players, none of them would be susceptible to poaching.  You have a bunch of unhappy players and parents then you better work to change that.

As to the remark about 'dad coach's', two of the best coach's we've had were 'dad coaches'.  D1 soccer players, etc.  they cared way more about the kids than the ones coaching 4 different teams and just dialing it In with no bonding with the young players.  My own dad coach produced 3 D1players and a professional player from his own family--no coaching license.  When the heart is in it, not just the $, amazing things happen,[/quote]

Sounds like you should have stayed with your good coach then. You clearly have bigger issues than a four hour drive to a game.

Really though, move on. Your problems are club/team problems not league/CCL problems. Stop listening to your ego and do what is right for your kid and family. That is really as nice and sincere as I can be about your issues. [/quote]
