    Ever notice how the fictitious poster never complains or responds with any anger or sarcasm? Beyond telling. And then the endorsement of confusion. Love it.

    Again, sorry for your loss, but you hanging out on TS isn't making things more comforting for the girls lol.

      BTNT, show a little pride in your work, man.

      A family from SoCal had to take the red eye, Dad already on TS, and the 3 girls are all 2 years apart, with the so very likely combo of a lanky GK, a brute defender, and a speedy, technical striker. LOL!!!!!!!!!!

        If questions, leave them here? Where else would they leave them? Did you post an a mailing address?

        And you know it's even phonier when the "OP" says "thank you" to such nonsense.
        They asked how people trained in the winter. That's how people train in the winter... shoveling a 10x10m patch isn't so ridiculous with light snow. Just to have space to get touches in. And regarding looking online for drills, it's a great resource for individual practice. It's not 'fiction' when people actually do this stuff.

We have three daughters all who are excellent soccer players. Our oldest...13...is a tall lanky goaltender...the middle...11 is a strong physical defender...while our youngest..9...is a speedy striker with strong technical skills. We are wondering how players keep developing over the winter in this kind of weather. With that in mind what club or clubs should we look at where they will get the best bang for our buck. We are not looking for Olympic or National Team glory..frankly we would be happy with full rides at a top Div 1 program. We would like to keep them in the same program so we aren't driving every which way. Thanks in advance as we are looking forward to some great insight from this thread!
          And Lucy moves the football again...

                Wait for it....After continuing with the lies for 5-6 posts, the "OP" is going to shift to the usual "who cares if it's fiction, there are people who will benefit from the information."

                Just tell us what you want everyone to know. I'm sure you've got loads of really fresh, updated material.

                  I feel for you. You are either the "OP" answering your own question OR else you take yourself so seriously and are so narcissistic that you are blinded to just how ridiculous the first post was (i.e. isn't crazy enough to dream of the WNT but is crazy enough to "settle" for "full rides" to "top D1s").

                      LMAO. Near Braintree? Like a suburb of Braintree, lol? Like Weymouth? Quincy? Bizarre.

                      Got what you needed? All set now?

                      Tell us a little more about the talents of each girl. And what makes you think you'll get full rides to top D1s for all of them? Possible you're being just a little unrealistic? Whole family already here? Girls moved in middle of a school semester?

                        Not sure your new boss after such a sudden job change and with you being all new and all is gonna want you spending valuable time on TS. What sector are you in? Tech? Pharmaceuticals? Waster management? Since the soccer careers of your girls are so important, did you consider finding a new job in SoCal? At least you missed those horrible fires? Did you at least manage to sell your house and close before the fires hit?

                          Admittedly it wasn't the best situation and we would have preferred to wait until after the holidays but it is what it is. We love the area and the girls are fitting right in. Everything is working out swimmingly and finding the right club will be the cherry on top.

                          As far as their individual talents of each girl they all have their unique skill set. I already mentioned how the oldest is a tall and lanky GK. She has recently started lifting and she has an intrinsic sense of when to and when not to come out of the net. The middle defender is not only big and strong, but she is as fast as most strikers she plays with. She is great at booting the ball over the top. The striker has a nose for the goal and is a natural at her position. Coaches have noticed this and that is why she has been playing solely striker since she was 6.

                            I also know this is probably a foolish question, but do any clubs hold outdoor showcases in the winter.....? sounds like it could be a great and different experience!

                              Would you feel OK if they just end up playing D3?

                                I think their talent will best be utilized at the D1 level...they have it in their genes
