These are 100% the facts. Being able to brag about winning things with kids not even of HS age is RTs only line on his soccer resume. He has no credibility other than what you imagine it to be. Don't fall for his fast talking sales pitches and just walk away.

Great advice. Walk away from MFA.

RT isn’t going to last at MF. He’s cooked and it’s not even spring.

Honestly the best thing that could happen to him is starting over somewhere else. He needs to erase a lot of his history and he can’t do it here.

Losing takes a lot out of him. Just look at the Supercopa photo. He didn’t even collect medals for second place in Boston for his teams. The crazy MFS parents only add to the stress. The guy has aged 15 years since he started MFS. It’s not a healthy environment for kids or coaches.

He tossed players from his team without even talking to the parents so he deserves everything he gets.

Remember when Obama went into office all young and energetic and left an old man with grey hair and a weathered face? That’s RT since he left Supercopa.

His problem is that he gets way to close to some parents on his teams. It’s a strange popularity contest or middle school cool kids vibe. When he does this he makes promises and speaks unfiltered to this group. Everyone picks up on it and everyone knows that certain kids are untouchable. This is not normal behavior from a professional coach. This will backfire epically because the same people he surrounded himself with are going to ultimately be the ones that bring him down. I don’t feel bad because he made the bed..

That's great except they have a coach and technical director who has zero college contacts, zero history of developing, zero history of college placements, and didn't even play in college himself so doesn't even understand what it takes to play at that level. Solid plan to rely on RT.

It's crazy to think about, but really what does a parent have to rely on to think he's a good coach besides the excitement of winning and the travel? Any talk of a badge or fields is just pie in the sky stuff to try and push someone over the edge to sign on. I can totally understand a parent being taken in by RT if they're coming from a town team or a different lower level club team because what he's selling is much grander than anything even being offered (because most coaches at the younger ages are focused on development instead).
Playing with better kids that he's already recruited... ✅
Traveling to other states to (as per RT) prestigious tournaments... ✅
Facing better competition, especially at said tournaments... Check ✅
Being told the goal is to win a national championship at u11... ✅

What you're really getting is:

A highly competitive atmosphere where your kid's position on not just the starting 11, but the actual roster, is up for grabs every day.

A place where zero development happens at practice. Each practice is just a showcase for your kid to prove they are better than the other kids on the roster and the outside kids who show up to each practice.

A multi-thousand dollar bill for the hotels and flights to tournaments you are expected to participate in.

A highly suspicious parent group where there are multiple people willing to sell you out to RT if you say or do the wrong thing. If your kid plays the same position as their kid you'd better watch your back. Look at what happened to the PA girls recently from his 09 team for all the proof you need.

Please look into the guy (see the quoted post) before saying yes.

Current 2011 MFS parent here. Never heard of this place until I went to look up the coach. I wish the things said on here were false, but being perfectly honest, my kid has learned less soccer in her time under him then the prior years combined. I'm waiting out the season here because well, I freaking paid already. Sorry, but I don't get some of the other parents. Everything said above is completely true in my experience. We're done.

Most of the things on here are false but I can tell you this post is very accurate. Every line on here is truth!!

Agreed 100%! We unfortunately brought into the lies RT sold us. He loves to brag about his 2009 team, and thats his claim to fame. Parents like us believed what he said, that our kids would be just like the 09 team, and that sounded great. Fast forward, my daughter has not improved with her skills, and just like everyone else, we sought outside training, which I/she doesn't mind, but I'd prefer her to do it because she WANTS to, not because she HAS to. Some of the parents on our team are out of control, and I'm always embarrassed to be by them at games. Just like a few others have said, we'll be leaving next season, in fact we have already sat in with another teams practice. For anyone considering MF Shore be warned. It's not a great environment for a young child, and definitely not one for an adult.

We bought into Tetro's lies as well. As the old saying goes, if I'd known then what I know now.......
