Last nights game against Toronto was pretty boring and they lost. OC has bigger problems and don’t care about anything but playoffs.
    It is absolutely still being funded by pro team and is the best option in Florida if you can make the cut. Yes, even a better option than Weston which is why we have players that came here from South Florida. But to each his own. Go enjoy your kid’s Soccer and stop trying to justify why he isnt playing DA. It will be ok

      Weston has put x10 more players in national team camps and is above OC in every table kept by DA. And without any affiliation to an MLS or pro club. OC has a complete monopoly on Florida and still cannot dominate. Had a monopoly on entire SE until Atl United opened up shop and they have zoomed past OC in their first year in both pro club and academy. What does that tell you dad? Best Weston and Kendall and Boca players drive right past OC on their way to Atlanta United. You are delusional. OC is a chronic underachiever across the board and has had the luxury of no competition for 5-6 years. Now Atl United is on scenic and there will soon be an option to the south, too. OC is in a death spiral. And if you cannot (or will not let yourself) see that, you need to get in touch with reality soon, because the wake up call will be soon and violent.

        And the truth shall set you free....

          Haha. Why are you triggered? Why do you care so much?

          Anyway, OC is MLS and will be funded and still have perks and recruiting over any Florida DA. It has worked for my son and yes we have players from south Florida. Sounds like you are bitter. ECNlL not working out so great at FKK? Well you did beat Armada. Or did you?

            Exactly why Greg and Craig got fired and exactly why DA is now at MV academy. The smart Brazilian majority owner was sold a bill of goods for 6 plus years. Smart businessmen know when to fold them. Why throw good money away. GB and CM destroyed the program but using inferior players and making side deals with parents. CM and GB have 30 hardened supports from the 30 that they took care of. Most none of those players have now made it under the new leadership...

            The Great news for local competition is that GB and CM are now running the ECNL program at OC. They will again screw things up and leave club in continued shambles

              Sadly, the Brazilian owner is an idiot, too. The deal with MV was to avoid cost and responsibility of having a real youth academy. It will not benefit youth development under Mac, but will be used as a marketing tool to attract boarding students with parents with more money than brains. Sad. There is no pro academy option in Florida. Weston is your best option, and that should depress us all.

                Brazilian is no dummy- he doesn’t have to foot the bill for the lack luster DA program and has the benefit if by miracle a player arises out of the dust

                  It is his club, he can run it how he chooses. The dummies are all the central Florida people who think OC is a local club interested in developing young local, or even young American, players. They are not. You like spending your money watching the club play, great. Just don’t lie to yourself.

                    Desperately seeking Purple... Your entire purple clown show is laughingstock of all that know. Trust me plenty know.

                    1- Boys OC DA leaves mid year

                    2- Girls OC DA gone gone gonner....

                    3- OC tryouts dismal at best

                    4- OC could not pay for extra fields last season. Central Winds, Boom Bah gone to other clubs

                    OCYS Club is in major disarray

                    Here’s a tip.. Do not pay your season in FULL. OC could skip town mid year like other programs have already disappeared.

                          Too late. They failed.

                              The state of youth soccer in Florida is really sad. These big clubs like Weston, Orlando Coty, they operate like professional franchises, just trying to win games, and willing to replace your kid about as soon as the uniforms come in the mail. There is no development, just this approach to win at all costs. At City your child is quickly expendable if the coach can scout and find a new kid to play your position. Forget the dream of a coach trying to train and develop your kid for all that money you pay. Think it’s an honor to be picked, the club views it as easy money until they find the next kid to take your spot. I don’t get it. There’s no national championship at age 10, 11,12, they are all kids. Why desperately win now??? If you develop these young kids, show confidence in them, they can develop into great players, form great teams. Instead this win at all cost mentality at a very young age drives kids away from soccer. I must be missing something, are these coaches auditioning for MLS jobs so they have to have a great record? I don’t get it, but I know by experience this is how City seems to operate, and would stay away if you want your kid to truly learn soccer and to continue their love for the game.

                                Preservation of market share and the subsequent revenue stream. Winning is perceived as success because it's a much easier metric than development to quantify.
