DA?

[Unregistered]

Seacoast is where your venom should be directed. Despite what was said at the parents meetings several players were given a waiver that the club said/inferred would allow them to play high school. Whether that was approved by the USSF or not will probably never be known. Read the threads to see the proof of this pass. Seacoast was contacted and they responded that it would be “handled” yet nothing was done. If Seacost was worried about it they would have shut it down immediately. You have several players missing DA practices yet they play on the weekend for their DA team. Please don’t be that ignorant that Seacoast doesn’t know exactly where they are and obviously doesn’t care. They know they are getting some bad press now because they are blatantly flaunting that certain players get exceptions over others. I completely agree that this is bull****, a horrible example and unfair to those that weren’t given the option. If you were a parent and player who was given this pass then why wouldn’t you do it. I would assume at the beginning of the current season the backlash from this was not fully understood but if the club knew the priority of HS and no NHIAA rules are being broken then I personally don’t fault the families for doing what they are doing. I get it that it’s not right but with the blessing of Seacost they can not be blamed for what some are calling unethical and being horrible parents.

Sorry - but a parent allowing, supporting, and endorsing the breaking of the rules either by SU or the school (HS team) looking the other way when they miss practice is still wrong, unethical, and corrupt. Shame on the parents for thinking this is somehow ok.

Wrong. That's a different girl. Almost identical name but different girl and a different age.

Parents must be posting to try to deflect attention on her. If you are comfortable with your choices, why the need to keep posting?

Spelling in both the DA roster and the Union Leader are the same, birth year 2020 - makes her a junior in HS as stated in the Union Leader article.... and BTW - the Trinity program knows she plays both.

So, assuming Trinity does know based on the above (and that's fact not opinion or assumption) we have blame on them and parents.

We do not know if SUSC knows about this player, correct? We do not know if SUSC has asked for, and been given permission by USSoccer (as some form of "Hey we know this is short notice and it will be tough to get full rosters at the older age groups so far into their HS years, so we'll look away for now" scenario), correct? We do not know if SUSC is just rolling the dice and taking their chances and will ask for forgiveness later vs. permission now, correct?

Personally, I think USSoccer should be more lenient at the older age groups, provide limited waivers in the middle, and lock it down at the U14. Start with a fresh set of kids and let it run it's course through one cycle and then make a determination on successes. But, nobody asked me...

Conversely, if you think this is wrong and have stated so why keep posting that opinion over and over? There is a very small number of people who know exactly what the real story is in this case and I doubt any of them are posting here. Everyone else is judging on pure speculation.

Not the OP, nor the parent, but the player and their family have basically been named and called out and had the mud slung at them. I'd be pissed, too.

Again, when you are the guilty party, it’s tough to have sympathy for ya. They are 100% guilty of breaking the #1 cardinal rules of DA, and the “no club activity during HS sports” rule too. I saw sling away!

This makes sense...and don't forget what else SUSC told that earlier poster..."we cannot discuss individual cases" or something to that effect. I wouldn't be surprised at all if SUSC/USSF let it slide for particular SUSC players just so they could get the GDA program off the ground and get those players on the initial DA teams. But if I were another kid and parent who played by the rules, and yet really wanted to play HS still, I'd see if I could still get on the HS team and tell SUSC to suck limes if I got caught.

Pretty tough on an anonymous board. Sling from behind a keyboard, tough guy.

Hopefully they understand that the source of this entire thing is in all likelihood one bitter parent whose daughter was either cut or is getting less time because of their daughter on either the high school team or DA. Pitiful and laughable at the same time. The only one losing sleep is the turd posting like he/she is several different people on this site.

Plus he's not that bright, you are allowed to do "club activity during HS sports" as long as the HS sports aren't skipped to do club activities. Kids do it all the time.

Again, I didn’t break the rules, so no need for this “tough guy” to answer to anyone. Gotta love the blame shifting and lack of morals or accountability with this crew and their shills. I would have more respect for them if they would just own up to their deception, and own their big “middle finger” to the rules and the rest of us. But the excuse-making, and constant deflection is about as sad as it gets. Freakin own it already.

Like you say "Sling away". No matter what you know or what is real, just you have your opinion and if you repeat it enough, it becomes fact. Pretty good statement on the country today.

Even better, do it anonymously so you can hide from the trees.

I'm not even one affected, but find your chickenshlt ways sad.

Not who you are talking to, but last I checked, you are anonymous too. Pot meet kettle. And I agree with him, only the guilty should be accountable here. Not him, not me, not you ... unless you are part of the guilty party.

I'm pointing out how someone has taken it upon themselves to hide behind a keyboard with their complaints. They haven't brought them into a public forum where they would be exposed. Names have essentially been named, called out parents, schools, and club, all the while doing it anonymously.

Stand under the pavilion and state your case. I'd have a ton more respect.

Exactly. Hopefully they realize that this is just jealous parents of some sucky players so they can continue to cheat. Not many people know or care anyway and as long as this is the case it won't have a negative affect on their business or the DA program in general. It might affect the team and the team chemistry but who cares, just keep the $$$ rollin in.
