Speaking of HS, congratulations Armada for the St Johns All County player of the year for both girls and boys. Both play at the Armada.

She also had many mentors from her father to playing at Creeks. Then she needed to find a consolidated talent team to play on. Her first JFC team played in southern region and the team would be back to back national champions. Her Creekside coach of 4 years has aided in her development. This player also puts in the time in. You will see her out at FESA's Veteran's Park practicing on her own.Originally posted by Unregistered View PostComment

Two questions....looking for honest answers, not drama.
1. Will the club be called JFC or JAFC.....the name does not matter to me, I just want an indicator to see how many half truths there are going around.
2. Will Boys DA be funded (partly funded), and how much will I be paying next season.
thxComment

seriously asking this on TS?Comment

As much as I know......
I would say I'm as knowledgeable as any Armada parent not on the board, and here is the best I can give you:Originally posted by Unregistered View Post
1. TBD- A new ownership group (from Germany) has either finalized or is very close to finalizing an agreement to purchase the Armada Pro team. There have been no discussions to date between the new owners and the youth academy regarding the future use of the name or any partnership terms going forward.
2. Without more information on #1 it's hard to answer this question. I'd say it's safe to assume that if the new Armada owners decide not to move forward with a partnership then any funding for the DA would go away. To the best of my knowledge, none of that has been discussed as of yet.
The reality is that the name issue really isn't much of an issue at all. If the club needs to go. Ack to being JFC, then the club goes back to being JFC. As far as any funding goes, while it is a very nice perk for the club and the current DA families to have some funding, it is NOT a make or break situation for the club. The club was a great and successful club before and it will be if there is an after. Without funding the DA would likely cost the same as any other travel team.
That's honestly all I know!Comment

Is SM German or have anything to do with the new investors into the pro team? Something is up at Florida Elite. Florida Elite has a new PR person and she is getting FESA's big Platinum sponsors to stay for 2017 and getting new big time sponsors. FESA will be paying for its ECNL athletes before long to have buses. More importantly, FESA the biggest club in town and the future will be requiring its families to buy season tickets to the pro team if the pro team is aligned with the many youth clubs.Comment

SM should not be involved in youth sports. He's not in it for the right reasons.Originally posted by Unregistered View PostComment

Youth sports are businesses these days. I encourage SM to invest in Florida Elite's future and I hope he makes money in the process of caring about Florida Elite and Jax area soccer.Originally posted by Unregistered View PostComment

Thanks SM. You are a true winner. Profiting off kids. You are the supreme example of what is wrong with youth sports today. We should give back to our children, not profit off them.Originally posted by Unregistered View PostComment

Without SM there would not be a FESA and where would that have left the thousands of children playing? An hour's drive north at JFC.Originally posted by Unregistered View PostComment
