    Complainers and Whiners

    I love seeing all the posts about what parents write about their current situations....practice too much, not enough, size of the field, color of uniform, too many scrimmages, not enough, too much money, outside training, bad coaches, my platform is better than yours, blah, blah, blah. Get it through your heads, it's a business first. If you have not done your own research you have no one to blame but yourself. But then I see the complainers, still there where they are supposedly so miserable and treated so bad. Do something about it. Find a club that better suits your kid. Or is your kid happy but your not? What is the deal? Do you feel obligated to stay if you are so wronged? Fact is, no matter what team, township, club, academy, they are always going to be looking for opportunities to bring on players that will contribute to the team, and yes that means winning. Sorry but that is just a fact. Academics are way more a priority in my world and there is more of a chance of getting scholarships for that...playing soccer, if my kid is still interested years down the road, in college would just be icing on the cake.

        Whine about a one game weekend all the way in VA with our GA club. What a waste....14 hour day in total for an 80 min game. There is gotta be a better way for youth soccer to find more local competition.

          Seriously? Why not make it a weekend with a second game if the team is driving all that way?

              Because they can care less about the paying customers that’s why

                That much travel for one game is insane.

                  seriously, you know what you are in for when you sign up right?
                  take responsibility for your own decisions and stop whining like a b-tch.

                    Totally agree, they seem desperate to get games in now so no consideration is given to doing the right thing.

                      A huge flaw with GDA and GAL now - they believe in only playing one game a weekend. That makes a ton of sense from a rest and recovery standpoint but zero sense for logistics and travel. ECNL pairs local teams so you get two matches in per weekend.

                        Maybe GAL will make changes to the scheduling for the fall season given the additional clubs that they have added

                          I don’t get it, they are ok with playing 4 games in one weekend tourney but not 2 league games on back to back days? Who’s running this league?
