I have always defended stars and the coaches but I think it’s finally gotten out of control. There are kids on my daughters ecnl team who simply should not be there but because there are two teams what’re you gonna do? Gotta fill the rosters. From what I’ve seen there are enough girls for basically 1.5 ecnl teams so the .5 gets screwed. Sure they get all the same opportunities but they are playing with kids who can’t hack it. This leads to abusive coaching (of course it shouldn’t let’s not get swamped with that) and kids who are starting to hate soccer.

Maybe if they had real tryouts it would be different.
Putting kids on the team cuz the coach ‘scouted’ them in some other environment doesn’t really cut it. At least that’s what happened on our team.

Our team had real tryouts. Kids were dropped. Only mine and two others had contracts heading into tryouts. That’s pretty real for a team of 20 with all
But one returning to the club.

Are you saying that the club is going down-hill? Is that why the teams are weaker? Is this why the coaches are becoming, as you say, abusive?

Stars have players choice so you can change teams if you don’t like the coach next season. And if it’s the coach we all think it is you got what you deserve. Everyone kowns his reputation.

ECNL season hasn't even started for U15+, which is when it matters, but the Stars demise is already a done deal? Ok.
