Aww. Poor baby doesn’t want to be screamed at. As long as it’s not personal. Good luck in college. Probably loves the toothbrushes the dentist gives for the no cavity Club. Everyone should get a trophy and be a winner! Lol

The lack of position switches led to certain kids thinking they were the only ones who should ever get to shoot, or take corners or penalty shots, etc, even in practice. Not good at young ages. Happy to step back for a more friendly environment for DS.


Coach probably put the fastest kids as starters didn't he?

Find a team that lost 7 people and I would at there is probably a real issue


I have seen a top team where two players leave. The coach/club were a sh#t show but parents kept their kid on because it was the first team in the “best” league. It blow up the next year mid season.

Really a bad generalization, my DCs has been on many teams where you couldn’t believe players stayed when it was that bad or others where so many players left for other opportunities and almost all played plenty on the team where players left.

Whats good for you may not be good for another.

So your daughter is in a clique with everyone but those three who just joined, and isn’t trying to win?

Seen some movement in local ECNL girls groups at HS ages. 9 left, 9 new at one team and 5 out and at least 3 in at another and 8 in and 5 out at another. Probably all the over rostered subs looking for more PT, and/or grass is greener syndrome. Not sure it will result in much difference for all involved, but shows that kids can move to and from teams even at the older ECNL ages.
