    First teams, or are these B and C teams getting dissolved? And are club fees being refunded, partially at least, so the players can go somewhere else? Sometimes clubs will form a team with an incomplete roster, hoping to fill in over the summer. Sometimes teams have no keeper--and cannot recruit one or convince any field players to make the switch into goal (or play tag-team keeper, with the expected results). And sometimes kids leave and teams fall apart. It happens even though the club had the best intentions. But if it does happen, the club needs to issue at least a partial refund of the dues, and make sure all players are released from any remaining obligations so that there are no obstacles to them joining another. And ideally the DoC in that situation will call his peers at other clubs looking to find the kids a spot.

    That said, I know LOTS of ex-BSC families who are very unhappy about what now sounds like a hostile takeover of a financially-distressed club.
    That sounds like a musical.

      Seems like someone is spinning negativity about another club again based on “I hear ...”. And “there’s a rumor that ...”

          BSC & NEU have always been distressing.

            Player pools too large for one team and not enough for two.
