I really hate to say it, but that team is dead. Highly doubtful the are around for the fall. Get out now.

My own son is crushed. Thoughts?
Used to happen all the time at BRYC.
I know of couple instances when it was two BRYC teams in the final, the same coach coached both teams.
Yes we were a part of that mess.

Rude rude rude
OP here - yes that sums up how I feel too, just not quite sure what to do about it! Already let my son know how proud I am that he played hard until the end, kept his chin up etc., all of that resiliency stuff. But how to handle dealing with the club itself?

OP here- as far as I remember it hasn’t happened other times this spring but there have been other matches in the fall and in prior years where the team manager had to step in and coach. B team also only gets 2 practices per week (vs A team 3) despite the fact that most kids on the team are committed players.

Tryouts are ongoing for other clubs. Strongly consider checking them out. Good coaching is about more than just skill development. The psychology is equally important - setting kids up for a demoralizing situation like that is inexcusable. Club is clearly sending the kids that it values other teams more. If that’s the case, there’s definitely a better place for your kid and teammates elsewhere.
