Originally posted by Unregistered View PostThe Washington timbers invited our coaching staff when Ajax was in town. I personally couldn't make it but I know a few from Eastside, Westside and the Washington State Technical Director was in attendance.
Washington Timbers are sending players and staff next year as well as Ajax coming back. I hear this will be a yearly deal and could be opened up to the alliance.
I also heard that Westside, Washington timbers and us are bringing in Real Madrid next summer. Good things going on in our soccer community. The more coaching education the better. Need to update those coaches that coach the game as if it were 1987

Originally posted by Unregistered View PostI don't know who paid. Looking at your "wins" comment above you would have benefitted from one of the presentations. Ajax doesn't focus on results until players are ready. They say that is at around 19 years old. They don't even show game results and stats until U16.

Originally posted by Unregistered View PostYou probably would benefit from telling everyone the cost of the Ajax academy to parents and the age that cost starts. When will wa timbers transition to this model along with the no scoring? Ages 18-22 is interesting. When will you start telling parents That the timbers/Ajax don't think their kid should go to college?

These goofs will spout anything they can to get a free trip to the Netherlands.

But one nit on not tracking results (picture taken from coach visiting Ajax Academy in August and yes, you read that u11 score correctly):

Throw in the fact that Ajax is not a pay-to-play model (essentially a futbol factory), I would be careful about idolizing their model (or assume it will work lock, stock, and barrel here w/out the other aspects of the model in place). Doesn't mean we can't all (or shouldn't) learn from them.

Originally posted by Unregistered View PostNo wa timber coach would last more than a year there. They also have ACCOUNTABILITY for performance
Our pay to play model is very different.
