Do clubs really need DOCs? If they provide oversight to a program but lack organizational skills, wouldn't clubs be better off hiring an Executive Director with business acumen accountable to a Board and 1-2 coaching directors to manage staff that reporting to ED?

Vast majority of clubs don't utilize the DOC correctly. Usually considered a strong coach, and ends up running 4 teams. To be effective they should have 1 STRONG team at the most, and using the remaining time coaching the coaches, evaluations of players/coaches, implement/tweak curriculum, recruiting players/coaches/sponsors. There are maybe 4-6 (NEFC, GPS, STARS, REVS, BOLTS) clubs that actually utilize there DOC properly and has paid off in the club growing and improving, and have a proven curriculum. IMO, GPS has the lead in the DOC department, with NEFC coming in a distant 2nd.Comment

What does being an effective DOC have to do with whether the employer is a town program or a high level club program? The qualities of a good DOC go with the person, not the program.Originally posted by Unregistered View PostComment

Mostly yes, but a good DOC also needs full board support (be it town or premier) to be effective in the job. It's one thing to give someone a title but if they aren't given authority to execute a plan then yes it's a waste of time and moneyOriginally posted by Unregistered View PostComment
