Yeah I feel bad for those coaches, some probably very depended on that income. As the TD, Lee should have know better to break away from the rules of an organization you are brand new to. Does anyone know if the decision to kick SYC out of NPL came in before or after Lee's departure. Anyone spoken to their former coaches since the changes were made?

Getting kicked out wasn't on Lee but on Dotty. Este refused to go to the NPL meeting and then Dotty insinuated they would apply for CCL in the future. They're apparently getting ready to fire a bunch of coaches too.

Well based on what I have heard (and observed) this trainwreck can be placed at Dotty's feet. So Este refused to attend the NPL meeting once he had joined SYC? Do you know why? And what club is getting ready to fire coaches? Alexandria? LMVSC? Or are more SYC coaches getting cut?

SYC is getting ready to fire coaches. Basically just keeping them in place until they have the replacement lined up, like they did to Lee.

This whole thing is on Dotty, and it's a really sh***y thing to do IMO. It's great that Lee found a new job, but I'd be very surprised if all the coaches they fired (or are planning to) are able to the same. "Travel soccer is a year long commitment ..." or so we are told. That means there aren't very many job openings at all this time of year. Most coaches make about $10,000 per team per year. So if you figure the SYC coaches were coaching 2 teams, firing them at this point in the year will cost them at least $10,000 that they were counting on over the next 6 months. That's a lot to take out of a family budget, particularly for folks who aren't making a whole lot to begin with.

It would be one thing if they were fired b/c of bad conduct, lack of professionalism, or otherwise poor performance. But this had nothing to do with any of that. This was just a stupid power play by Dotty. Downright cruel if you ask me.

Don't know why any coach in their right mind would want to go there as long as she's still calling the shots.

Very few coaches come on these boards but if they did, imagine what those SYC coaches would be thinking? Not sure I would want to see a comment like that here.

Forewarned is forearmed.

Was just going to say that I thought CCL rejected SYC previously...SYC is hardly in a better place now. And wasn't Dottie just brought on board back in the summer of 2018? Finally, does anyone know why SYC is going through a massive staffing upheaval? I find it hard to believe that the quantity of parents that are unhappy with their coaches is this significant.

SYC has gotten a little too big for its britches.

That is a huge mess! Why would CCL want them in. Two years ago they gave them a chance and SYC thought they were too cool for CCL2 and CCL was not impressed with SYC overall that they would not promote them to CCL. They parted ways so what is better now?

More coaches being fired just before the start of the season? Or simply not renewing/asking back those not in their future plans.

New coaches and runmor is we're getting kicked out of NPL in the Fall.

Is the new coach someone from LMVSC or are they finding other available coaches mid-year?

Our new coach is from LMVSC. The is at least one additional coach (Jonahan Romero) that SYC tweeted about. Not sure who he is, where he is from or what teams he will be coaching.

That is interesting, hadn't heard of any other coaches leaving LMVSC mid-year.

Just saw Lee's pic on Alexandria's coaching website, although it doesn't list what teams he'll be coaching. Thanks so much for posting this!

Interesting move, wonder if the coach(s) went there for the quick ability to generate income or intended as a long term move.

Alexandria
