EM got his head handed to him. Lol

Travel soccer parent. EM completely mismanaged this. He first angered a heck of a lot of us with his Edge $1000 team fees. Then he got greedy and nominated too many people. Then he expected us to vote for his slate. What a joke. No one trusts him. And I support getting rid of all the other sports.

So you support getting rid of other sports that 1000s of kids participate in?

We were just told the optional EDGE training would only be $220 for 11 sessions. Which is a great value over the other training options in this area, which run closer to $40 per session. And it is optional, except for the 1st teams U13-U19... which to be honest, is a great deal for year round prioritized team indoor training space.

Secondly, 'getting rid of the other sports' is a complete mischaracterization. That is not the same as dividing SYC into SYC Soccer and SYC All other sports, it would be easier to manage if that were the case. No one wants to remove options for kids playing sports, it's just becoming an organizational management problem.

My DS is 1st team so it’s “mandatory.” They angered a bunch of 1st team parents.

Was told 1st team (MLS & GA) trains 4 days a week. and often 1 if the 4 training day gets cancelled, especially on the boys side. At best there are 3 training days, now 1 of those days is EDGE for an additional cost. The first team club fee for MLS and GA is already higher than the lower team. that's a switch and bait when i see it.

MLSN parent. Doesn’t the league have requirements for amount of hours they have to train each week? If your club is violating that why not report them to MLS?

It’s not hours I don’t think. The standards set out how many days of training. I think up to U14 it’s three days and U15 and older is four days

LMVSC would never take them back.

Send them back to LMVSC or anywhere else and what do you think would happen to SYC? Look at what happened to LMVSC and St. James when key personnel left. Slowly dying clubs.

SYC would be fine. They have MLS and GA. You can leave a club and take players but you can’t take the platforms with you. Coaches and players would continue to go to SYC for the opportunities.

At one point LMVSC had CCL and SYC didn’t. SYC would apply every year and EM would do everything he could to block them. Then he left and suddenly it was best for for the area to get SYC into the CCL. Then things took off and the rest is history. It would shake things up for sure.

Yea, but the landscape has changed so much. For EM and crew, they couldn't just hop to another club and get access to the top leagues overnight like they did with CCL. In a lot of ways, they're tied to SYC. Going anywhere else would mean huge reductions in talent they coach and their own salaries. And for SYC, if they left, it would probably result in exactly what happened with St James. The latest episode is just the cancer moving from just affecting soccer to affecting the whole club. The bottom falls out on the club at some point, either under the weight of ridiculous salaries/fees or governance stepping in a cutting the cord at a very steep price.

Of course they could. Did you see VRSC? They got access to GA immediately when they had no business in doing so based on their history. Coaching and players coming over got them access immediately. You know what club would likely welcome them with open arms and would have the money to do so? In my opinion, st. James.

The st James? Haha
