Is youth soccer the new gymnastics. How many buried stories from head of clubs and directors of youth soccer organizations? Coaches leaving one club because of accusations only to be hired by another club. In all fairness it’s probably the parents’ and players’ fault.

Listen to your kids, watch for their passion to decline, and listen to your kids.
When our kid came to us with why they wanted to stop playing we had a hard time with it and then our kid explained things and we observed and it shinned a whole new light on things looking at it from their perspective and we we emailed the coach and got them off the team and our kid has been so relived and happy.
Of course the coach was defensive and the club was numb to it all. when parents asked us why we did that we said watch closely, talk to your kid don't just pay attention to wins and losses, watch the bench and practices.

The center has NOT. They take the allegations and hand it over to US club soccer. That’s where it falls on deaf ears.

But let it be known why you’re leaving. Be not afraid.

IF we pulled out then the team would have to play down a man the rest of the year... We stayed to support the rest of the kids so they would have a team and not fold. It was the absolute worst thing I have done to one of my kids and I regret every moment of doing that. We should have left early in the fall when the abuse became evident. When we went to u12 the following year and DS joined a real travel club with paid coaches they mentioned to me "did he get yelled at a lot by an old coach?"
This is sad and you should feel like S.

It’s hard when they’re both coach and director.
