Originally posted by Unregistered View PostI have no affiliation with this area, the local clubs, or the facility and its club partners. That being said, the parents of the kids on your team will be drawn to the perceived value of the complex coupled with the lure of "professional" coaching for their children. Unrealistic expectations will drive them away from your team. It isn't your fault and has nothing to do with the quality of your training. I've seen it happen before.

Originally posted by Unregistered View PostThat is a very true statement - for a year or so. Once the player isn't on the top team and is relegated to some B-Z team and the "quality" coaching dissapears so doesn't the player - on to greener pastures.
Good luck! NEFC group out Dartmouth area has had trouble growing to scale of other areas. This will be the same NEFC tries in this area. It isn't about quality of the coaching or facillity but cost. You don't think people from this area wouldn't drive to Norfolk if the cost was cheaper? It is overpriced!

Originally posted by Unregistered View PostYou will once you start losing all of your players to NEFC. The parents will want the facility and won't put up with practicing in dumps or on school gyms once they get a taste of it. Saw it happen in Metrowest.
50 players to 2 coach ratios.

I'd be surprised if NEFC was the main club in this area. Look for MPS to jump back in.

Originally posted by Unregistered View PostNot worried about my players! Cost isn't always quality for a player! Sell you BS to parents and coaches who don't know better.
We rent a gym and let them play. Much more cost effective and players get more out of it.
Do so more research, the same caliber players are benefiting with this process both at the club, state, and high school level? Maybe this is why you would let the group into the NEFC preason tourney.

Originally posted by Unregistered View PostThis could probably be said for a lot of people in a lot of clubs. If you look at what orgnizations like MPS and NEFC are doing you will see the future of youth soccer. They are running their clubs like a business and that is more the trend than the exception across the country.
