[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]every club has it's own 'toxic' nature. some are specific to coaches while others are somewhere between minimal and widespread. every parent and player only know what they know and usually place blind faith and trust in the coach and/or organization. everyone has observed an opposing coach acting like an ass and verbally abuse players and wondered how anyone enjoys playing on that team. but players and parents remain.

pipeline is unique from other clubs in that the toxicity stems from the top and is masked behind their mission statement and social media presence[/quote]

Oh please, as one of the Pipeline parents posting above, this is absolutely not true.  And really you need to work about your jealousy about their continuing success in the Baltimore market in some other way.  As I said earlier, some of us can tell what club you are with and it makes you look small and petty.[/quote]

Different Pipeline parent here.  (Not a "rival Baltimore club" from your paranoid delusions).  Kids are on top teams. Both starters and play 95% of the game.  And it's a miserably toxic environment. The owners/founders create and insert themselves into all of the drama.  Rampant nepotism, cronyism, bullying, . The teams are completely chaotic. New kids randomly show up at practice and then on the roster.  There is zero team chemistry. Sure, we win, but we enter some of the sh*ttiest tournaments.  It's a waste.  There's zero development-- even on the ECNL teams-- DC's coach admitted that he knows a certain rival ECNL team will overtake ours in several years, but he has no interest in developing the teams technical skills. There's nothing to be jealous about: we saw what it looks like on the so-called top and we want out. We know many families who feel the same.[/quote]

Why wait to quit then?  Amazing how all the unhappy parents are posters on dcum when the parents I know in real life feel differently.  In any case, it sounds like your kids are very talented and could play anywhere, so why be unhappy?[/quote]
