Smithtown and Susa

LI Slammers literally changes nothing. Sachem has nothing left. Smithtown has what it had and so does EI. Combined they are so not better than clubs like Stony Brook, HBC, Lake Grove

Smithtown.Stony Brook and Lake Grove would be a powerhouse together

Except it is just an affiliate, exactly like the other multiple Slammers affiliates. And please don't try to sell me the BS that they're going to be involved, it was the same BS Surf sold us-slapping a big time soccer guy's name on your website means squat. You're selling a coach on your website that was passed over as head coach and probably let go, like he's still at the college-already hoodwinking people.
If you want a less expensive option than mega clubs like Susa, Stony Brook is head and shoulders better than this Slammers Scam.

You're completely wrong because you know nothing but, why don't we agree on this, time will tell. Let's be real, when SUSA first started a few years ago nobody thought they would be any good and then things fell on line for them, Riley completely messed up Albertson and boom, SUSA has ECNL. So rather than make up nonsense, let's see what happens. If three years from now it's another Surf, bash away.

LI Slammers is the Smithtown staff. Not one trainer is worth any player leaving where they are just too be called a Slammer. Lips has accomplished less than Moussa in all of his years. LI soccer is the biggest joke of an area in this country

It is? Really? There's 4 people listed on the website and two have nothing to do with Smithtown so how are the Long Island Slammers the Smithtown staff?

Smithtown people crack me up! Susa put Commack, Dix Hills, Sound Beach and ISA together-all dominant clubs in their respective leagues-USYS, EDP & NPL. They had Regional Champion teams, National Champion teams, teams that won top flights in top tournaments.
Slammers are putting together clubs of a much lower caliber and crossing their fingers that some other club screws up along the way and they get thrown a bone, lol.

So they gather up players from localish leagues with somewhat reasonable travel and pricing and jack up the pricing and travel to play in a "national league" and call that progress or success? That is the opposite of progress and success. That is let's see how many dollars we can suck u out of these parent's wallets to pretend that their kids are little mini pro soccer players.

Susa is joined by many other clubs trying to make lots of money from youth soccer - it is something but not sure I would call it progress.

So should we all just let SUSA put everyone out of business?

Plenty of clubs are still in business, still fielding competitive teams, still getting kids solid college placements, without having to combine 3-4 clubs and jack up the prices. Smithtown always desperate to be more than what they are.

On your last quote about desperation, clubs want to grow and get better it’s parents who drive the desperation to prove there kids are just as good as club players. Town teams like Smithtown have been very successful for many years. They are affordable, convenient without having to drive far for training and play there league games close by. The players are happy playing with friends and they play on town fields without having to share with multiple clubs. It’s when parents then “look over the fence” to ECNL clubs that they get desperate to say they pay less and get the same college commitments. That is not factual. It’s a whole different experience starting with the level of competition as well as competitiveness of matches. Some town parents just can’t enjoy there own experience and need to compare.

All I've ever heard from Susa parents are complaints.

Complaints about what Anyone who joins SUSA go in with their eyes wide open. The parents know the deal as well as the players. What you read on these anonymous posts are people going off about the club for there own purposes. It has nothing to do with Smithtown. You have some of those parents trying to be relevant and wanting to cause controversy. Let me say it once again, I do not know anyone at SUSA who thinks, talks about or cares about any other club or town team other than there own.

Progress in LI soccer is now seen as how many players you can rip out of another club. No one has time to develop players.
