PDA Showcase

[Guest]

I have used nice bathrooms inside facility at USTraining Center in Dowingtown, PA next to the turf field. Was at PennFusion Winter Showcase in February. I think Delco uses the fields too.

They can open but they won’t be the site of the ecnl showcase

Who cares the coaches aren't watching the non-ECNL teams anyway. Nice to have a captive audience to gouge for ECNL.

Your clueless. They absolutely were school gear. They usually sit off to the corners. They have ipads , brouchures and folder/ binders and back packs with the school name on it as well.

Agreed and will give out their cards to anyone giving them brochures with player info. They want people to know they are there.

Lets assume you are correct, there is only 3-4 quality coaches at PDA. Why any of the other clubs in the area wouldn't take a couple of them or even all of them, offer a bigger pays to lure them in to the club, make a new powerhouse and send the PDA into shambles?

Maybe Fc copa could use a couple

Soccer Nut, World Class shares that facility with Orangeburg Soccer. World Class plays out of Orangeburg Soccer. Yes they have a nice facility but again they SHARE that with the town and technically they play out of Orangeburg Soccer. STA c'mon now lol lol don't even go there but I like the comedy. Again STA plays out of Morris United Soccer Fields and they have fields all over the place. Nothing wrong with that but again C'mon son lol lol. Oakwood has two turf field and I believe an indoor facility that is not at the same location as their fields. It my memory serves me correctly they do have bleachers also with an overhang. Again PDA's North Complex has Ten (10) fields and when was the last big tournament you seen Oakwood host. Again nothing wrong with them but again these are not APPLES to APPLES that we are comparing. CFC has a nice facility or facilities as they have multiple locations throughout the state. Again when is the last tournament you been at CFC. Nothing against them but we are not comparing APPLES to APPLES. There is a reason why these club can not compare or host larger scale tournaments as PDA does. FACILITY restraints and imagine if you tried to host an event as PDA does at any of these venues you list. I can't imagine the message boards lol lol lol

Eric, I was just commenting on clubs that have indoor plumbing bathrooms as compared to PDA. You asked what clubs have indoor plumbing facilities? Since PDA facilities are leased, I thought other leased facilities were a fair comparison when juxtaposing restrooms.
I made no mention about big tournaments or number of fields

Another swing and a miss. PDA can and should do better. EDP puts out a nicer spread at Tuckahoe.

Do you have a personal spot right next to the generator/porta potty?

When it comes to parking lots and most importantly bathrooms no one in NJ and perhaps the East Coast can match CSA. Top shelf, so you get some nice amenities for the $. PDA has a lot of catching up to do.

Different poster. Not all coaches wear gear but they do tend to stay away from others. It's not all that hard to figure out who they are

Lol- it was pretty bad this weekend. To be clear - these girls are all at period age so it was worse than expected, which isnt right for them especially.
When you invite guests from all over the country to your home and make them pay, at the very least give them the basics to make them comfortable. No one was asking for a Nespresso machine or fresh bagels. PDA did not do that period. Pun intended.

Finally some truth and common sense on here. You got to take care of the customer and make them feel welcome. CSA does that.

Everyone loves visiting CSA when you're guarantied a win against the hosts.

Soccer Nut,

This thread better not be the one that sends you back into exile for another 10 years! Your return has brought back some much needed clarity!

Yeah but you have a nice experience with bathrooms and parking so it balances out!

Parking at CSA is worse than PDA.

I was impressed with SUSA facility and bathrooms when daughter’s team played there last month for Columbus tournament. I understand PDA is a “non-profit”. That’s why we were told we could only pay tuition by check sent to Patty Seitz instead of credit card when we were at PDA. Someone should ask Patty about getting decent bathroom facilities at Zarephath.
