    You appear to be obsessed with Tom. Did he sleep with your wife or something?

U9-U13 is simply about laying the foundation. Truly mastering the technique and learning to play the game competitively happens at the HS ages (ie. after the kids have left your club far behind)
      Since you like to take words out of people mouths and spin them to whatever is your cause of the day i don't expect you will get the idea of following what others have said…

      To rewind… the comment was made that the highly skilled players in Oregon ECNL developed those skills somewhere else (hard to argue differently unless you believe all skills have been acquired in the last year). Others stated that ECNL as a whole is not viewed as being a treaty development opportunity it is better at showcasing what is already developed. See I am reading and putting comments together…That is how you form cogent thought…rather then just sniping.

      Obviously you bit the hook. Hopefully you were happy with the outcome. The fact that you are so defensive when others question the opportunity makes me think you would have been happier if you had asked a few more questions...

        No, he slept with our previous male coach. Was very akward for all of us.

          I get that there are a lot of people that are not Tom fans, but do comments like that really make you a better person? Do you feel really good about yourself? If you are not a 13 year old boy, and an actual parent, God help us all!!!!

            As with all sports....Soccer is no different. The older you get the more it becomes like a job, and more is expected of you.
