Afterward, HOCo appealed to the officials and had the disqualification overruled, which should not have happened. Both teams had already been forfeited based on the conduct that occurred.

The fact is people have problems with them bc they win and they big. Thats it. It’s a skill issue. All of the whining about dirty coaching and playing is comical. It’s just cope. They win because they are better.

All of the losing parents can’t handle it and lash out at officials instead of teaching their kids to train and embrace adversity.

You don’t like losing to hoco? Work harder or go play soccer. Don’t throw a tantrum and make your team forfeit.

OMG how delusional hoco parents are. Horrible.

To say the losing parents can’t handle losing and lash out at the officials is comical. Clearly, you’ve never seen a HoCo sideline in action. They’ve consistently been a problem since they started. Parents act like their kids can do no wrong, and if someone even grazes their child, they start screaming at refs for foul calls. When their girls are physically hurting the other team. They’ve also been known to yell at officials when games aren’t going the way they think they should, accusing refs of “losing the game” for their girls.
The coach also treats injuries like an inconvenience, yelling at players to get up because if a coach comes onto the field, the player has to come off and they don’t want that. I even witnessed her yelling at her own daughter to get off the field while she was hurt and crying because she was “wasting time” when they were losing.
We’ve come across this team multiple times over the past three years, and every time their behavior and sideline antics seem to get worse.

This is a glimpse of the issue. MDU parents and staff acknowledged the bad behavior, apologized to the players and league and will work on sideline behavior and safe play. Hoco unapologetically continues taunting and poor behavior.

The team almost folded already after a large group left because of the culture. The team only has two subs. It wouldn’t be surprising if a few more deserted, not wanting to be associated with the group.

I saw a lot of subs on the sideline for Maryland United 2034s. Agreed that the parent culture seems pretty toxic - have never seen parents force a forfeit for berating referees in youth lacrosse - but it doesn't seem like things are as bad as you say they are over at MDU. They'll unfortunately be back.

I was referring to HoCo. I should have been clearer!

Its not about losing to them it happens. Its about game play. If you think bodying, cross checking, push from behind, slashes, dangerous shots, girls getting hit in the head and intimidation is skill then you have lost your mind. All things that have been called on this team. They typically get yellow cards every game. Sometimes even have girls card out. Parents want their kids to be safe, thats not an unfathomable thing to ask. If they are doing these things at 9/10yrs old what will they be doing when they are 13/14yrs old.

They are not going to be doing it at 13/14 because their good players will be on another team w another club where that isn’t the culture, tolerated or asked for, plus no college coach recruiting wants to see that type of player or parent .

30/32 here. Saw none of it anywhere else. The 30 chip game was about 10x calmer than the 2034 semifinal lol.
They have a coach who is very engaged, shows up to 3 practices a week for them..better than the missing coaches for my 2033 who sporadically honor us with their presence even though paid & committed..but she has a reputation from Century. Not an accident that this is happening at hoco and not hero’s.

anyone see anything like this at the 2030/31/32/33 playoffs or championship?

No. Have a 30 and 33. Saw the usual stuff from parents yelling out at refs every now and then during the playoff games but nothing like what the 34 MD United parents did to the refs and league officials during that game.
