[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Once coaches know they are leaving they totally phone it in. That's probably where all the complaints about combined practices and practices that are just scrimmages come from.[/quote]

Haha no we have had a shitty experience this entire year not just during spring tryout season.

We are signed up for tryouts but will probably bail on them. [/quote]

Talked to a couple parents at our kids last game and it seems like many are talking about leaving but after doing this for a while plans fall through and kids end up staying.  We will see what actually happens but this time of year is always like this. Part of the business. [/quote]

This. Inertia is real. Some people actually do move to Canada to dodge the draft. Most people end up staying after all despite all the complaining. Some people secretly just want you to leave so they think they can move up. That’s how Valor and other clubs stay afloat in spite of crap management. [/quote] No games this spring, that’s weird. According to the NCSL, you have a full season ahead and we saw your boys play last weekend. See the schedule below. Perhaps you are just on the wrong Teamsnap, there is tech support for that.

Previous poster is talking about the U15 age group, not the 2015 birth year. It seems like things are more of a mess at the older ages, as well as the lower level teams at the younger ages. I have not heard too many complaints from parents first and second team in the younger age groups. At least not on the boys side. The coaches are almost always there leading their own teams and doing various kinds of drills.

We have also thought about GFR, but wondering if they are a mess too with all the changes recently. Are kids there looking to jump ship?

Agree that inertia is real, especially when the practice fields are in a convenient location. It’s hard to sign up for a longer drive without knowing if the grass is really greener elsewhere.
