LAFC Chelsea blues had some very good boys teams back in the day and there fued with CSL started the whole expansion of affiliates and leagues that we have today.

Evenutally I think they morphed into LA premier FC but Chivas USA took many of the academy players and the LAFC name is now with the MLS club.

It's almost as if you took various bits of information and cobbled it all together to create your own misinformed reality??? Your first sentence is especially interesting. Where did you get that information?

Did'nt get the info, lived it.

LAFC Chelsea was a pasadena club with Don Sheppard, President.

The partnership with a professional club Chelsea caused a fued with coast soccer league and our top teams left the league to play in the now disbanded LA futbol league. After that one season playing up some players were recuited to play with Chivas USA like my son.

Here you go, next time check your info before you go all misinformed

 
You clearly lived in your own little bubble and think a little too much of yourself. Both of those leagues were already in existence during the course of the events that you describe. That small, very small, event had very little, to absolutely nothing to do with the "whole expansion of affiliates and leagues that we have today". You give yourself and your little club too much credit. In fact, you don't even really have your genders correct. All this expansion and affiliates has more to do with the girls than the boys. Its all money driven and the girls pay more than the boys.

What? I'm a parent that was involved they had a older son that was playing during that time that's it.

Little Club, bubble, giving myself credit I don't know where you came up with all that stuff?

Maybe you just weren't around at the time or knew what was really happened, too bad the old board links are gone but that fued was a major topic and everything changed after that including scdsl, 3+ team allowed, professional affiliates, etc. Would have these changes been made? or later if not for the intial fight/fued among CSL & LAFC Chelsea? in my opinion yes would have happen but at a later time. If you don't agree that fine doesn't really matter either way but had everything to do with my olders son jounery playing youth soccer.
 
Based on my memory of the CSL feud which led to the creation of the SCDSL, it did have a lot to do with Chelsea and Cosmos West and it was the boys teams that were specifically involved.

This thread has gone in 2 unexpected directions. Back to poaching.

I remember that CSL tried to act like the big-kid bully on the block but metaphorically got kicked in the nuts.
 
This thread gets the award for the most frequent and creative tangential and disjointed wanderings from the original topic. Very entertaining but probably a bit frustrating for the OP.

Fat tire bikes are all the rage. Riding on a 4.8 tire is almost cheating but you really suffer on the climbs. They just had the Fat Tire state championships and will having the WC in Crested Butte next month. Need those fat tires to ride in the snow.

Rolling fatties!!! (Oops wrong thread)
 
OK. Back to "poaching." Personally, I don't see anything wrong with approaching a parent about having his or her daughter switch teams; especially if the team she would be going to is a far more competitive team than the one she already plays for. That girl is being offered more competition during practices and games, with a more focused group of players. For families who value competition, I think that the "poacher" is doing them a favor by reaching out. For those who value other things above competitiveness (playing with friends, loyalty, playing locally ... etc ...), it's easy enough for a parent to say "thanks, but we're happy where we are."
