My guess is they prioritize the girls program because of said monopoly and boys go to ECNL opening up MLSN spot for VRSC

I am in no way a fan of BSC’s leadership and would be thrilled if it turned over completely, but you are really reaching with this one. It makes much more sense to focus on the current ineptitude and arrogance of those running the club and treating it like it’s their own kingdom.

This entire thread is a stretch, so why stop there? Let’s call out youth soccer coaches and publicly expose them. Like let’s get a grip people. This entire thread is hilarious.

Anyone who actually knows anything about BSC knows that this entire thread is neither a stretch nor hilarious. In fact, some of these topics are constantly discussed by parents on both the boys and girls sides.

Is some stuff in here exaggerated, over the top, hyperbole or whatever you want to call it? Sure. Is some of it made up or false? Probably. This has gotten so long and who knows how many trolls and people with an axe to grind have made sh*t up.

But I know dozens of Bethesda families who have personal stories on some of these topics and I’ve been involved in countless conversations spanning years on these topics with countless Bethesda families.

The general themes in this thread are very much real and there are many people with legitimate concerns. That’s not a stretch and it’s certainly not hilarious when we’re talking about, amongst other things, mistreating kids and abusive behavior.

Dozens of families? Countless conversations? Spanning years? You do know no one is forcing you to stay? I also think Bethesda is a lousy club, so I voted with my feet. If more people did the same, rather than anonymously posting on DCUM or complaining amongst themselves on the sidelines, something might actually change. But this is DC, so we’d rather just rant.

Who said I stayed? And btw current parents still blab with former player parent friends.
