Parents, coaches, directors and any other adults on this board have a duty to stop posting lies and bullying. You are only hurting kids and coaches with your negative comments. Most of that is aimed at LFCIAWA and to be quite honest it's at a point where someone is going to suffer a breakdown.
In an effort to combat this online bullying I am in talks with LFC to sponsor a Diploma in Anti-Harassment. Ideally it would be supported by WA soccer and US soccer. All adults would need to complete it prior to their child attending practices.
As far as some of the lies being told here.
1) There are more than 1 coach with a USSF C license at the club. If you read the website you will see there are 2
2) Neither EA nor GA has indicated any risk regarding qualifications for participation in the upcoming season
3) The Labor Day Cup tournament was a great success - it was nice to get some good competition in for the 2011 boys EA as they won their silver division convincingly
4) Any coaches who have left recently have done so because they weren't a good fit for the program being developed
5) There are no refunds and the lawyers have said they will defend the club vigorously against any small claims cases
6) The players do have feet - it was on display over the weekend. They were just hidden by the grass we had to let grow in at the home fields after years of mismanaged fields. The heads groundskeeper from Liverpool is tourning the US to see where they want to invest in fields and we are building a strong powerpoint proposal
7) Don't forget to signup for the golf tournament - there are still spots available.
Folks, before I end this note I want to remind everyone that it's about the kids. How would your child feel if they knew you were posting on this forum. What would you do if someone had a mental breakdown from something they read here. Trust me folks, it's happened to me in the past and ruined one club. Let's not let LFCIAWA be ruined by online bullies.
