Wrong. Not sure if you realize or not but if White parents were saying the similar things to black players on the field, players and families would have been removed from the team and perhaps worse. SC has one of the worst reputations around and was all but blacklisted from ECNL and GA clubs in NY/NJ. Fact. Although SC red card was a separate incident than the parents. I don’t know the players involvement and if you think they are being smeared, it’s only by relation to the parents. I don’t think I have seen any posts smearing any kid directly.

There is a place for everyone to play soccer at every level . Don’t be mad because your DD didn’t get chosen or didn’t remain on Bethesdas first team.

Bethesda needs to get rid of KL and SC. KL can't coach older age groups as his 06s went downhill slowly after U15. Bethesda had to buy OPSA after KL destroyed the 07 team and didn't have enough players. I don't think he had much to do with the 08s. Can't really place blame on KL or SC for 09s although the 09s have not improved this year since KL took over. The 2010s are also seeing a downturn of success now even though they have only added good players. Guessing the 2011s are only going to follow the same track.

SC may be an excellent Soccer Coach but he has zero hold of his temper and his arrogance and people skills are trash. Any Coach with good management would have never allowed these parents to act in this manner game after game.

Year after year of complaints of KL coaching and treatment of players. Year after year of problems with SC misbehaving, and starting fights with other teams and coaches. MN may not be directly coaching but has also been causing problems. Remember all these individuals (KL, SC, JC and MN) are in a "friends circle" that includes JC which prevents anyone from losing their position.

All of this is a shame because Bethesda is still a respected Club as they have been around for so long. A lot of coaches outside the DMV would be happy to relocate for the ECNL oppurtunity at Bethesda. I honestly don't understand how nothing has been done.

IF you are at Bethesda or considering, RUN away until ECNL management and coaching staff has been removed. I know the MDU coaches aren't exactly highly regarded but they are better than Bethesda except for SV. Other option is obviously going over the bridge.

Good luck.

Everyone who wasn’t there conveniently painting it like the Delco parents, players and coach had nothing to do with this. You all know it takes two to tango and the provocations go both ways in order for things to escalate. This is part of the landscape of competitive sports at every level - from kids to pro. No, it is not great or normal, nobody is proud of it but it happens. Drawing far reaching conclusions from it is self serving at best.

“MDU coaches aren't exactly highly regarded but they are better than Bethesda”

This takes the cake! Sounds like you like it there and if you do, it’s the right place for you. For plenty of people it’s otherwise.
