    Common to restrict parent communication?

    In the interest of privacy (especially today!) I would assume most clubs try to restrict email addresses...etc between team/club parents. I just find it odd that we recently tried to reach out through proper club channels to offer more engagement of D's teammates through some extra club "sessions" (would bring in more $ too), & was led to believe that it is not possible to send notice from one parent to rest of parents concerned. Any thoughts on common club practice?

    Most teams we’ve been involved with use Team Snap for team communication and we are able to not only communicate through that, but also lists our email addresses. As for trying to reach parents on OTHER teams, well that would probably be a no due to privacy concerns. Not sure there would be much reason to do that anyway.

      Only trying to update D's teammates of her extra added schedule. That way others can possibly practice together instead of different days. We are just going to reach out verbally, just thought it odd & a bit paranoid. We'll check out the app associated with club, nice suggestion

          Paranoid is the right word to describe it, especially if it's the owner of my daughter's former club.

            It is sad that we are at this point that communciation is restricted. This stems from shady clubs who recruit players and ask to bring teamates with them. Until NEP starts fining coaches and clubs this type of activity will continue. I would say maybe paranoid for good with clubs like Stars and coaches like GB running around.

              Fair take I suppose, but the reality is that it's a business and business is cutthroat. That's not going to change. The best defense is delivering the best product, service, and experience to the consumer parent as a club possibly can.

                I think the best defense for some clubs are to come onto TS and trash the others.
