Agree, but he was the MLS Next Director, who did so much damage to ASA kids. TD and minions did not care at all. MLS Next had to get involved.
What exactly did he do? All of my interactions with him were positive over the years, including when he coached my son. Instead of giving vague statements, please post what exactly he did.
I have highlighted the relevant concerns, including different forms of mental and emotional abuse.
I also want to emphasize that in a coaching or youth setting, this is especially serious. Coaches hold a position of authority and trust, and treating children differently in an unfair, inconsistent, or biased way is not acceptable. Favoritism, exclusion, or any behavior that undermines a child’s confidence or sense of safety crosses a clear professional and ethical line.
I will not go further here, as it would likely be removed.
Well your post doesn’t tell us anything. I’m very sorry that your kid had a bad experience with that coach but it’s impossible to tell if it’s serious without your going into any sort of detail.
We had a negative experience with ASA but not with that coach. Our interactions with that particular coach were somewhat limited but overall ok. I’m not an ASA booster whatsoever.

WH mishandled this from day one. The damage wasn't just to the program—it was to the kids. The leadership meeting was nothing more than a scripted PR exercise: no accountability, no answers, and no plan.
The organization can't attract or retain quality coaches because it refuses to invest in them. Good coaches don't leave stable, well-run programs—they leave dysfunctional ones.
And yet the ASA Warriors response never changes: blame the parents, dismiss legitimate concerns, and pretend everything is fine. If things were really fine, there wouldn't be a revolving door of coaches year after year.
The evidence is overwhelming. The problem isn't the parents. It isn't the players. It's the leadership. The dysfunction starts at the top and keeps rolling downhill.
Satay away!!!!!!
You realize WH is one of the coaches that left?
Of course I know, dummy. He should have been held accountable for his actions by the club at the time, but they clearly did not care. I hope IMG thoroughly researches his background before other kids are subjected to the same awful treatment.

Does anyone have insight (or even idea of on possible time frame) on hiring to replace lost coaches? Thanks!

Half the team didn't like the previous coach either. Can't please everyone.
