I have found ADP in the past to be a nice step up over rec, where even with a well meaning volunteer coach, the kids often learn little about soccer. ADP does provide more structure and curriculum. Whether that’s worth the extra money is another question. But regardless, this scheduling thing is very frustrating.

ADP is a total ripoff. Pro coaches don’t provide any real coaching at the individual level. Parent coaches aren’t any better than the ones at the rec level generally. Fields are assigned last and often rained out while rec kids were still playing on turf. Never again.

Totally agree. They should be embarassed. And the “enhancements” seems like BS. The language around professional vs. parent coaches and who would be where and when was completed word salad.

Yes the language is very confusing. I don’t remember it being like this last year.

Just received the ADP email noting that they are working on the schedule. But I must admit the email wording was confusing (at least to me).

Did you at least get team assignments and game schedules before then? 🤞🏻

You're expecting too much. Save yourself some stress and get a refund.

Why would rec be done before ADP? It’s over $1,000! Not impressed so far.

Rec rosters and schedules are done so hopefully ADP is next!

Has anyone heard more about team rosters or practices times and days? Other then the generic email that they would be some combination of MWF evenings?

Frustrating that it’s so late in August and we know nothing.
