I am a parent, not a coach, and did not make a promise that all teams will be playing top flight at surf cup. My statement that Bayern will be participating in those tournaments is true, but I certainly wouldn’t want a parent to think that I (another parent) made a promise regarding any team playing the top flight of surf cup. If you have a question about a specific age group at GPS-central, feel free to call either Ray or Toumi.

" They will get in based upon their current ranking? I get it , you must mean their GotSoccer Ranking. LOL. Teams get accepted into Surf Cup based upon relationships with Surf and reputation. Don't fool yourself. Plenty of teams that should be there get denied every year with less deserving teams getting in. Obviously if you think it is based on rankings you know nothing about the soccer landscape.
My understanding is that not all teams are new. Some have followed their coaches. For example looking at their site the 03s also followed RT. That says a lot about a coach.
@Outside had a valid comment. @Really and Soccer Momager are pathetic. Continually bashing a club because you have a grudge against one coach. If he is really that terrible I suggest you do something about it. But I especially like your push up comment. Reminds me of an Albion coach that had his U8 boys do over 300 push ups at a practice because they "sucked" and were "weak."
So if you plan to get off the pot and do something PM me and I will give you Bob Turner's cell phone number.
Another uneducated comment. Teams are placed in leagues based on their expected performance (at least when they don't have an arrogant coach they thinks his C team should be in Flight 1 of SCDSL). Every new club that I have seen start with only a few teams is able to play under the umbrella of another club until they have enough teams to qualify for the league themselves. I would assume based on teams that followed, they will have enough teams that they will not need to associate with another club next season although looking at the 04 thread they are listed at United FC out of OC. I think this is because they have to wait to get approved for next season.
I understand the soccer landscape. Surf likes play and stay teams and brackets from all over the world. My point was Rays 04s have a top 5-6 ranking, with that this “new” team may be able to get in. Plenty of quality local teams don’t get in because they are local.
Where are these established teams coming from? What league are they going to play in?
A grudge against a coach? Try concerned member of the soccer landscape. It’s not a grudge it’s s major concern. I have Bob Turners number and that whole gang knows very well of this lunatic

Before you go and put your foot in your mouth “oh wait you did”. Bob turner has been contacted. Wouldn’t you like to know what was said! So shut the hell up. The only one who is pathetic is you that continues to bash people for speaking facts.

Evidently you have not seen a Blues game coached by Greg Baker.
Or an Arsenal game by RB
outside!
DA
I wonder where the screaming and belittling of the players would cross some sort of line and the referee would be justified in ejecting the coach? Something along the lines of "Sorry coach, but in my judgement you are mentally abusing children and I am sending you to the parking lot." I'm almost tempted to double dog dare you.
So in all honesty how does it work? His license got stripped and Cal south is aware. He hasn't committed a crime so he's still allowed to be involved with children and part of this business. If you are concerned write Bayern or Gps? Phil Burns and Ray etc seem like genuinely nice people. Maybe you are frustrated and trying to help others but May be best to give them the benefit of the doubt (Ray and Phil). I am not trying to minimize your feelings
That's funny coming from Fact!
So it is ok to yell if you are a winning coach. Classic.
There was not a coach at Crusades that I did not like. Most were exceptional. It was the firing of Directors that I did not care for and do think RM has done anything special since being there. My kids played for the coach not the club. I could bash Steveo when he was at Surf all day long but it would not stop me from allowing my kid to play for one of the great coaches they had.
I cannot remember either Baker or RB being held accountable for anything they said to a player. And surely some ref must have smelled alcohol on coaches and did nothing. That is why it is important for parents to keep engaged. Even after your kids can drive themselves to practice, I tried to go at least once a week.
I was not the on that brought up Bakers and RB. Two posters that I respect brought them up. I am not deflecting anything.
And you do say it so ok if the win.
I don't care about Rell, whether he coaches or not. I dont know him and my family is not in the market for a coach at that level. But if you had bothered to see any of my prior posts, I see that landscape of youth Soccer changing for the worse. I don't like the management at Albion and Surf although they do have some good coaches. Little clubs are not going to be able to survive if the current pace of acquisitions continue.
I had hoped that Crusades would be a great option from families but they are stagnant. Not sure why Rebels is not doing more but probably due to their lower fees. Barcelona came in last year and I had hoped that they would get traction but haven't. Now with Bayern GPS being a national club I hope they get enough interest that it will require other clubs like Albion and Surf to increase their service to the clients(children).
My children are older but I am friends with several coaches in the area and see them often. For all their sakes it would be great to have competition that raises the level of options.
