....and another well kept secret!Anyone attend this weekends Galaxy tryouts. How was the turnout.
22-24 players, mostly Galaxy, with Slammers, Blues, and Beach attendees. This could be an opportunity to stay off the 405 South for some. It will be interesting to see what the fully funded label is able to poach!Anyone attend this weekends Galaxy tryouts. How was the turnout.
I'm loving the possibility's of "the shake-up!"22-24 players, mostly Galaxy, with Slammers, Blues, and Beach attendees. This could be an opportunity to stay off the 405 South for some. It will be interesting to see what the fully funded label is able to poach!
A free pass isn't enough of an incentive for an unknown coaching staff. I will pay the big $$ for good coaching before sending my dd to a club with too many unknowns. Maybe those who went to tryouts were told who will be coaching. Someone has to know...but to send your dd to a team because it's free is like getting a free grab bag...you never know what you're gonna get. LA Galaxy needs to put their cards out on the table if they want parents to buy in to the free program. I don't think "fully funded" will be as much of a draw as people may think. Save $3000 and possibly lose a year in development. HmmmYes Despite Galaxy's laziness in preparing for DA they hold a pretty strong card with a free pass.
Looks like the LA Galaxy is stepping up it's game. This takes time, but KH is a great start. I don't have a DD in this fight, my oldest daughter, a college graduate, was a GK and fortunate enough to train with KH in her youth. Outstanding trainer and person. Win for the Galaxy in my opinion.

Still no coaching announcements for 2003/2004s, but I heard offers were given to players already.Looks like the LA Galaxy is stepping up it's game. This takes time, but KH is a great start.

I agree with what you are saying here. Coaching should be much more important than the annual cost of club soccer. Free is always a nice perk, but if it's free and the coaching is poor, what have you gained?
I am curious how many GDA parents are using a potential "free ride" from LAG or Pats to leverage a better deal with another GDA club? I don't expect any parent on this site to share their story (if it is happening), but I have to think there are savvy parents out there saying to Legends, Beach, Slammers, etc.......my dd has a full ride offer from LAG or Pats, so what can you do?
IMO, Blues players will not go to Galaxy. Especially the 03s and 02s, even with the free price tag!!Already happening- but it was he opposite. Offer at Blues but went to another for a "full scholarship".
Blues couldn't match the deal!
