    If Joe Frimpong promises you a scholarship. GET IT IN WRITING.
    There will be no money and then when you try to leave because you cannot afford it, he will send you a bill for the money that is owed and will not release your player card for the year.

    FCSC Scholarship = NO MONEY

      Sounds like a shrewd business plan to me.
      Pie-in-the-sky becomes pie-in-your-face.

      You rock Joe!!!!

        It's a family run deal there and pretty much what you d expect. Lack of philosophy, no transparency, little experience, and crazy stories.

          Knowing full well that he could take players with him. Must have been a lot of issues for Pacific to ask him to leave. He will fit right in at Salmon Creek.
          Several Pacific FC parents are rethinking the "benefits" of this team move.
          Salmon Creek would welcome the premier tuition $$$ but offer no increased value.

            Unless you are making SC A team, yes why even bother. NO benefit and most likely get beat by the Pacific A team at that point. That would be embarrassing. And you just paid twice as much to let it happen.

            I would guess only the top players would go over for a shot at the A team.

              Who did Pacific hire to replace this coach?

                Salmon Creek started with 25 teams 5 years ago??? and is not down to how many. On the boys side, they have only 3 teams.

                Can you call yourself Premier if you cannot even field a team at every age?

                Any new Business it takes time to get going. But what do the numbers tell you? Luckily Pacific is close to Salmon Creek, so it makes it very easy to get more kids.
                On the plus side with the split in oregon, it means pacific should get more teams in higher leagues.

                  Look at the Salmon Creek coaching roster. They don't need another coach. They need the
                  ex-Pacific coach to deliver player$ ("number$") complete with their parent$' checkbook$.

                  That said, you're right that a limited number of top Pacific FC players have a shot at
                  bumping and replacing some current FCSC A team members, if that is their goal in leaving.

                    The B coach Rue Lindgren. We played for her before and left her team after one year. Nice lady but very disorganized, and laid back. My daughter didn't develop at all that year and Rue wouldn't be there half of the time. She had random parents do warmups and practices, etc. Cancelled things at the last minute. Doesn't seem to know mid level soccer.

                      I don't get it? Why would the bulk of Pacific players migrate to FCSC and pay $1100 for nothing more than they currently have? I seriously doubt this "coach" is worth the increase in $$$. (don't know that but +$500 x 16 players= +$8,000.000 ??????)
                      Those that mention that some may have a shot at the Nemesis A team - don't they already have that opportunity now? If they are that good you don't you think the Pingpong's would welcome them with open arms immediately. Or at tryouts.
                      Seriously what are the Pacific parents thinking here? If Joe pulls this off he needs to quit soccer and get into a Sales Profession - he'd make a lot more money!

                        I've seen this movie before.
                        A disgruntled (or fired) coach with a bruised ego leaves but wants to make a statement on his way out the door. Loyalty to a single coach (or even to past teammates), particularly at this age, can be detrimental to personal player advancement. Decisions need to be on an individual basis, not like lemmings running off a cliff.

                          Given the Pacific FC coach's antics, he was down to 9 - 10 rostered players with at least 4-5 of those remaining players being ones who had left the Salmon Creek GU-14 Nemesis team within the past 12 months over playing time and the use of 'guest players'. He seems to want to continue finding a home for his daughter who is actually a pretty solid player despite his real boot ball coaching and side line 'control freak craziness'.

                          Maybe 2-3 Pacific players would have a shot at making the Nemesis "A" team and improving its quality.

                            What are you taking about?! The pacific coach has more experience than salmon creeks and already they had issues with kids leaving because fcsc s coach was using guests instead of the players to win. Pacifics coach should help and look to see him helping coach the A team. They need him more than just a few select players.

                              We are still taking about the 99s right?
                              So are you saying Tina is stepping aside next year and the "Pacific Coach" will take the G99 Nemesis Yellow?
                              With all the coaching changes next year there may be hope to unite this age group after all!

                                Experience doesn't always equate to talent or ability.

                                If the plan is for the ex-Pacific coach is to help (or "assist") coach Tina'a team, that makes perfect sense because he's been a parent-coach to his daughter forever and probably expects to continue coaching her at a higher level, assuming she makes the A-team.

                                But where does that leave the rest of his old team?
