This is why he connects with RT, whom also didn't play in college. RT only played JV highschool soccer.

How can a guy who only played JV soccer be an academy’s technical director?

Business deal. One side is given a multi-year contract and a lofty title to start and grow the shore branch, the other side brings over multiple teams (aka $$$) into the club. The title established legitimacy even though his background is JV HS soccer and a C licence.

The whole MF Shore branch was orchestrated by a parent on the 09 team. Tetro had nothing to do with it at first. That's why the core group stays with tetro. They are the reason why MF Shore exists, and all those kids get free rides. Why do you think they stay there? It isn't for Tetros amazing coaching skills. Each and every one of those kids does outside training in order to continue to develope. But, they can only do "approved" training. In other words, not with any type of PDA related program, and definitely not with NH.

If you are correct and they get free tuition and they have to do outside training to keep up. I think paying a PDA or some other club with good training is a better deal. If you go to PDA you get like 3 practice’s / week. That’s 4.5-5 hours/ week of training plus games and tournaments where a trainer is teaching your kid the game. If they are paying for tuition plus extra training they are definitely getting ripped

Fake news! Does anyone even look up stuff before they post it. He isn’t on a single roster on monclairs official website.

Do your research peeps. At least he went to HS and college. Many of the PDA coaches never went to college and questionable if they finished HS and didn’t play soccer past age 12.

PDA practices 2x a week. Does not have games all the time in fact so few because no one wants to play, hard to coordinate. So it’s limited to internal scrimmages and league games + few tournaments. All of the players must do outside training to keep up or they just don’t and ride the bench.

Silly advice. Degrees mean nothing when it comes to coaching. Coaches are judged based on results and how they develop their players and get them to the next level not a piece of paper from Montclair State hanging in the office.

Disagree. Girls are playing soccer to better themselves as people and those that are serious are looking at college. If you are working with a coach that has never experienced those things how could they possibly be a role model? There are coaches that came from Africa or South America to the US with nothing and still got their degrees and coach. It’s an excuse, it takes work. It’s hard to respect a person “teaching” kids that haven’t made the efforts themselves. Many have and those are the ones to work with.

I'd rather have my coach studying for his/her A license than taking courses at the community college. I don't expect academic eggheads to understand that.

Tetro graduated for the school of white Claw. The guy is a known drunk and abusive to kids. Talks about parents and kids to other parents, and if you do something he doesn't like, your gone. (PA kids). Say what you want about PDA, but in the last year there have been over 200 threads related to RT and MFS. (Yea, we all know, they were all started by PDA... oh wait, they were started by Niko.... oh wait, they were started by former CSA parents whose kid didn't make the team.... oh wait, they were started by a PDAmomager.... oh wait, they were started by parents from the Manalapan boys team.... oh wait, they were started by *insert any name here*...) Looking through all these threads, PDA falls far behind any of the accusations against them like RT has. In fact, DM from PSA has had more threads about him then PDA.

The problem with that is, the coaches that haven’t been to school can’t get their A licenses bc they can’t pass.

I was expecting to read about what’s happening to the 08 team but it turned out to be another bait & switch to talk about that stupid 09 mfs team. Sucks. Can’t get that half hour back.

I Agree get back to the 2008 team

Has DB learned about the 08s who trained at PDA?

I doubt highly that they trained at PDA, since that would be against ECNL rules
