Anyhoo! Soccer is a different beast. They have 200 kids at tryouts and accept everyone and place all who accept at where they think their current skill level is or project to be. Pete knows what I' talking about when I say move him down. So if he's on a Div1,2, or 3 team. he can move down to a Div4 team, etc. Tryouts is next month and he can do just that. What you can't do is cry about his playing time when you admit he's not as advanced as the others on the team. Well you can but why not have a conversation with the coach to see where their heads are instead? |

Maybe you should read slower then. Don’t make assumptions like I haven’t talked to the coach when I stated we have during his evaluations. The whole point of the thread is if and when you should talk about these other things. So yes, you’re wrong. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Exactly. This guy would rather have fast kids who aren’t very good at soccer. He is a win above anything else type. That might be okay for a D1 team but not a D4. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

If you've had conversations with the coach, I don't know what the point of this thread is at this point. Are you attention whoring? Offseason is kind of slow. Anyways... I suggest finishing the season (as it's too late to say anything at this point) and try finding a organization/coach/team that'll allow him to flourish in his own way. That's not necessarily a team with players that are better than him as he'll be setting himself up for failure. We tend to think that playing with better players will push our kids. I say getting with a better coach that's technical and believes in development & growth (especially at that age) is more important. |

Just looking at it from both sides. I totally see your point though. Most people underestimate how cut-throat comp sports is nowadays. There's literally no pussification of the kids when it comes to comp sports. |

There is no both sides. If a coach runs his starters into the ground in a game they should have no busines playing in then he is not a good coach but he is a tremendous dick. |

You know those times when you think of something appallingly tasteless and as you’re trying to cast the thought into a sentence you realize that you’re going to offend even yourself if you say it?
Yeah.

This thread made me very happy that my son wrestles and plays football. It seems soccer is inundated with crazy soccer moms, Karens, and Kevins.
