Does anyone know why so many boys coaches left mid-year?

The league would not let them enter boys’ pre-ECNL teams without having girls’ teams too, presumably due to scheduling. There either weren’t enough girls or they weren’t competitive, and the league was not willing to allow just the boys. The boys would have been just fine in the pre-ECNL.

Herndon, Sterling and GFR could form a pretty good club

Having so many clubs in the same town is plain dumb. Why wouldn't people just get together and form one strong club instead of beating up on each other and recruiting players back and forth

I think HYS is a dump but to think a club would take the time to "retaliate" against your kid is absurd. Maybe they were sick and tired of dealing with a crazy parent(s) and just cut the kid or put him on another team. You have to understand that you and your precious kid are not the only kids playing for the club.


Hence the founding of Club Deportivo Sterling. Here to take HYS and Sterling SC piece of the pie until they have none left para comer!


This is a rec org for disadvantaged kids with maybe 3 or 4 teams total, they play games even for teenagers on terrible elementary school grass fields.No one is worried about
competing with them. But good for them for trying to help out their community.


I don't see why they exist, really, Sterling soccer is well run, has financial aid, and actual decent fields.


Sterling well run??!?! Really? Deportivo Sterling destroys Sterling teams year after year at any of the age groups that Deportivo has a team. Deportivo wasn't made to take players but to support a huge group of kids who can't and/or don't want to pay $3000 to play soccer. As far as the fields go, what does that have to do with anything? They practice on grass, you don't need perfect turf to make you a good player or learn how to play the game, and if anyone has seen Deportivo play, they can see that those kids love the game and beat many of the "great" "top" teams who have amazing turf in "well run" clubs


This is such a bizarre take. Deportivo has a total of 2 travel teams. They beat Sterling by 1 goal for 2014B, 2016B score literally doesn't matter, so I'm not sure where this year over year comment comes from. Sterling is also not $3k a year, they are less than $2k a year. I hate when people use misinformation when trying to make their case, which is exactly what's happening here.

You play in a rec league, bro.


bro? Is there a teenager on this forum trying to defend his Herndon club?

What team are you on BRO?

Herndon is getting wrecked in ECNLR unless you're 2009.

The girls I won't say anything about because they should be playing rec and not travel. 5 teams in RL have 3 wins combined from 30 games

Let's relax on "rec league bro"



100% AGREE about the girls! There are a few standouts on each team, but most belong in rec. I feel bad for the standouts, they really need to move on.

If it is the coach you raise up to the technical director of the club. Let them try to fix it, if not hopefully you can get a partial refund and move on.

People have reasonable and unreasonable grievances against soccer clubs all the time.

Unless it was a safe sport violation, your only remedy is to quit and go elsewhere. Stop paying and go.

At this point in the season, did they not start him? What age group? Did they leave him off a roster? Did they demote him to a lower team? Was it the coach? What did they do? -Whay did they retaliate against your son? Did he do anything? Did you do anything?


Funny how everyone is judging while no one is answering the question. I am being vague because my kid is still on that team.
My question is what is the official way to report a club/coach. I am not asking you to judge what happened, I am asking who regulates those clubs if anyone.


Report it by posting here and we will escalate it to the proper channels
