    Finding players is not the issue. The issue is fixing what MV screwed up in the last 18 months. This year is going to be ugly but not near as bad as many think. Better than when OC dropped it into MV hands without qualified coaches not understanding the rules of DA. This year is stressful from the offer standpoint but at least the people running it have a clue. OC will be fine. Still don’t know where the boys will play home games but that is nothing too concerning
    OCDA may have had more talent in the past but it has never been run well (not even close to the standard set by FC DALLAS, ATLANTA, TORONTO etc......). You can blame MV for the last 18 months but even before then they had already burned a lot of bridges which have never been repaired. Hopefully the new staff can actually develop players and find a way to work with clubs. We have talent here!

      Agreed. No 05 is making the older teams. A few may be pulled up later in the year though.

        I think the poster was right in as OCDA use to be the premier place that boys wanted to get to but now that's not the case. Sure they will be fine just like every other club but not anywhere like they use to be.

          We all agreed that OCDA is the laughing club in America now you say they won’t be anywhere like they used to be? That’s awesome, means it is better and hopefully getting it right this time.

            OC will be fine if mediocrity is the standard. Which it obviously is from the first team down. Atlanta is kicking our ASS on and off the field. MLS champs, sold out stadium, great DA program and have you seen their training grounds. We are lagging way behind and it will only get worse with InterMiami.

              is JC the 05 coach? if he is, he likes to play possession soccer, not as a season ending goal, but as a requirement to field a team. he will not play kids that do not pass the ball and mostly make correct decisions.

                He is the 03/04 coach.

                      Hard working no doubt, easy to play posession style when you have the talent to do so, he won't have the same quality players this season and will have to work harder.
                      His bench players from last team did not improve 1 bit not 1 made IM and others did not make Weston DA.
                      Good luck!

                        I predict large rosters and playing time being cut for all. I can see 10 kids being left off the roster weekly. Knowing this how many of you would chose full time play at an ECNL level?

                          this is true and probably a fair criticism of this coach. i think when you are talking about kids that are 13, 14 years old, they all deserve a chance to develop. not just the stars. this does not mean he's not intelligent and hard working. he is. no coach is perfect and he is young enough to reflect on his mistakes and maybe improve.

                            My 05 boy was asked to play 2003. Not sure this is his best option

                              Not sure about how easy it is to play possession style even with talented players because I don’t see many clubs doing particularly none in Weston aside from this team last year. JC played a possession style in West Pines as well with players that were ok. No doubt he will try it again at OC. Talent will determine how successful he is. He makes good players better. if you are a bench player you will be replaced soon if you don’t keep up. His style will absolutely work at this age group.

                                There is no other style! It’s the way the game should be played as a team!!!
