Because as a matter of practice clubs/teams use apps like TeamSnap and SportsEngine for team communication. They simply don't post schedulea online because, why?[/quote]

because the people loading the schedules into team snap probably don't have administrator privileges on the website. The people loading team snap are probably also parents who don't care about updating a club's website

It isn’t. take a look at Loudoun... they aren’t demanded. Comfy cushy position with high wages and virtually no chance of getting removed. Unless you retire.
Simply attend their training sessions and you’ll understand. Why do you think they try to do hard avoid their practice schedule being leaked?

Who the hell ever publishes their practice schedule?!?! I mean Loudoun is terrible, don't get me wrong, but this is the dumbest thing I've read here in a while.

Literally nobody publishes their practice schedule because other than the team, nobody cares when or where a team practices.

Oh yes. He's licensed and paid. Been coaching for many, many years at multiple local travel clubs. It's a small club that's run by volunteers so our fees are very low. We play our seasons in NCSL but do about three tournaments (and scrimmage) where we compete against NPL, CCL, and EDP teams.

(Same poster here). Just wanted to add: There are some obvious downsides to smaller clubs—but if your child is a decent player, wants to progress, but is self-aware enough to know they are not getting a college scholarship to play soccer, small clubs (with reasonable fees!) are good enough. I'll never understand playing upwards of $3k a year if your child isn't college-sports bound. Just find a decent coach and teammates that he likes!

Depends on the club. At some clubs the answer is a clear yes. At others, not so much.

not PP, but ours is a bit cheaper. Girls play EDP, 4 tournaments in a normal year, and it includes winter. Coach is going for their B license currently

No not at BRYC . In fact many of the better coaches won’t coach ecnl because of the travel and commitment. Financially it’s not worth it to them.

Please do tell. Who are these non-ECNL coaches at BRYC? Are you referring to the parent coaches in the rec NCSL league?

BN for one, But its the same at all of the ECNL clubs not just BRYC. 99% of NCSL coaches are paid licensed coaches. As for the rec comment Quite a few NCSL teams are better than the local ECNL teams of the same age especially on the boys side.
