Probably not highly regarded as a coach, but a savvy and innovative soccer administrator. I rate him.

" Think Surf affiliates." That's a good thing?
Who uses threats and punitive actions (tryout for Surf and we will cut you) as a way to keep players— but very happy to welcome a player from another club to tryout with his club. Ask a number of coaches who left what they think of him. And I believe he was the coach (or directly involved) of the team at Nationals that intentionally didn’t try to ensure both teams tied and advanced (the 2 teams just passed the ball around and didn’t play to win). That was a bad look. His ethics are questionable.
How sad!!! Threats=fear for parents. Trapped in unhealthy situation all to get a college to like your dd. How about this one: "I know all the college coaches and one thing they tell me is they hate club hoppers."

On the face of it regarding Surf, of course not a good thing, but that is slightly missing the point that I was making.

Except for "First Touch" you could change all the names around in any order and no one would know.

From the East County Surf website:
What leagues will we play in?
We will continue to play in Presidio, SDDA and CRL but will now have greater access into elite leagues and tournaments.
Do parents and club administrators actually believe because they throw Surf (albeit East County) on their jersey, they will magically get into some sought-after higher league or better tournament? Like SCS is now going to put them at the top of the list for Man City? And what elite league are they talking about to justify an extra $300 in reg fees? SCDSL, CSL, NPL? They can get into those now if they wanted to. If they had a new pathway for the those kids, I think they probably would have advertised it on the flyer/website.

"... no one would know" => "... no one would care"
Does anyone have a copy of the new price break down since the merger of Temecula Hawks and Legends South?
$1696 if you pay in full not including uniforms and tournaments.
$1780 if you make a payments are close to $300.
$1900 if your payments are smaller.
I think you can knock $100 off if you do volunteer work at a tournament.

I believe it is just North and Irvine that are left.
That is very true. For the most part parents are gullible borderline stupid and get suckered by the flashy big name club.

Problem with smaller clubs is that they have low chances of survival within 5 years. I’ve see so many small clubs come and go. Some clubs have 12 teams or less. They lose a coach that manages 3 teams and that’s a huge loss to recover. At what point does a small club decide to fold? Do they need to have at least 8 teams, 12 teams ?
The whole chapter?
