NJ Premier

[Guest]

It’s actually very competitive. My D plays on MF and the games are very exciting. It’s not fair to make that assessment. Not all clubs care about gotsoccer points. Playing up doesn’t mean you have a better team, just a player or two that can carry you or a top notch GK. Staying in flight allows you to see where you child stands against similar competition. You wouldn’t know that though. You sound like the person everyone avoids conversations with.

agreed, just some coach worried about his next paycheck somewhere

I was the one posting the question and it is nice for once seeing TS not bashing a club. It seems like a good club to keep in mind although my D may be too old (2007).

One of the best clubs for developing talent in the state. Unfortunately for their sake their talent constantly gets poached by PDA, Red Bulls, CSA, STA, MFA etc . If you look at some of the rosters from powerhouse clubs on the 2009, 2008, 2007 girls side a lot of the players were developed by NJ Premier coaches and then stolen by the likes of Mick Smith, Heineman, Larry Hart, Ken Moyer, Andrew Giambardo and the list is too long to name. The NJ Premier coaches will train players to play proper football, definitely not kick and run.

What do you mean by stolen? The parents obviously wanted to make that move.

Good point.

Also they rarely they change coaches for each team through the years. Not sure why, changing coaching philosophy is common but they neglect that.

They don’t have to leave.

Not sure what happened to the coaching for the younger girls teams. They seemed to be struggling. It could be the talent pool.

Two of my kids played at NJP. They keep kids busy, play a ton, work hard in practices. Most kids also do DTS stuff to help with skill development and volume of touches. It was decent. the kids teams sometimes played kick and run depending upon opponent and situation. NJP needs to win to stay relevant they are struggling with that more and more as their best players move on. Major turnover in coaches
