[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]47 pages seems to indicate a lot of unhappy parents but of course with 10,000 teams, there will be good and bad,,,seems like a LOT of bad tho[/quote]

Well you have to factor in that a couple of people may be posting repeatedly because they're really unhappy. This isn't like Yelp where you can see reviewers' usernames.

The unhappy parents I know at Valor are parents of kids on the lowest teams. They're in a bit of denial that maybe their kid doesn't have the athletic ability or work ethic for a higher team. Some of them are at another club that has played Valor's lowest team, and they have tied that team at least once. That tells me the kids who left Valor were in fact on the correct team. [/quote]

Multiple people have posted here saying they switched clubs or bailed on tryouts and their kid made a much higher team than what they were offered at Valor.

Yes, both things can be true. It sounds like there is almost 100% turnover on their lower (3rd, 4th, 5th) teams every year due to bad coaching, bad teammates, bad training, lack of attention from the club, etc. Or just plain losing every game-that's no fun for kids. Then they fill up the lower teams with a fresh round of kids from rec programs or outside orgs. Then those teams have another year of bad coaching etc etc, then everyone leave again. If they have paying customers on the black team, and no space on the higher teams, they will gamble that those parents will pay for the black team again, and not move a kid up even if he is good enough to bump out a current higher player. That kid's family gets disgruntled, and goes and tries out and makes a higher team.[/quote]

I agree whole heartedly on every-word. Just bumping this up for you again to the top. [/quote]
