Sounds like a high quality upstart club with two mature, responsible, respected, trustworthy and experienced community leaders. Talia and Toumi and Bayern GPS will raise the quality bar in San Diego. I'd trust them with my child to create a smart and supportive learning environment and to hire high quality coaches. No one knows youth soccer in San Diego better than Toumi. Watch this club grow.
@soccerparentsarecrazy you may be right, but how much traction are you going to get from someone that joined the forum today and has 1 post? Not a knock on the coaches, the club or you, but you get that the post comes across as someone with the club - right?

Add to that the awkwardly trying to fit in user name "soccerparentsarecrazy" looks like we got ourselves a coach in sheep's clothing. Sorry for outing you but I have a particular set of skills, skills I have acquired after a long forum career..skills that make me a nightmare for coaches like you...
If it’s a GPS coach, they had better figure out that their DOC’s last name is Taila, not Talia

Every one has to start somewhere. The number of posts, in this case, has no relevance to the truth of the statement. Anyone who knows these two individuals will agree with @soccerparentsarecrazy.
It is interesting that you said that the naming of these individuals was "good news"'on the Bayern GPS thread and above you ask who is coaching the
Everyone here knows that you are a 01 Albion homer who uses this forum to pump your own ego about your son making the varsity team in his freshman year. Yes I have seen you trying to
gloat.
** Reality check- Your son's high school is very small, plays in Division 4 and does not even have a JV team. No disrespect to your son but he is not even on the top team so you need to mellow out as I am positive you know little to nothing about these coaches. You and Defendthegoal are just being good little Albion homers. Move along unless you have something credible to add.

Sorry the system froze. But it was worth posting twice.

Why in the world would anyone who is an ALBION parent support a coach who has moved clubs repeatedly leaving teams before the end of the season?
All of the coaching contracts that I am aware of end after League season(end of November). So any coach that does not plan to sign another contract for another year has no choice but to leave before State Cup. FYI-Let's not exaggerate. Toumi's contract at Crusaders was not renewed after 20ish years due to CSC hurting financially because of Board mismanagement. And while Albion seemed like a good opportunity, he put his faith in an untrustworthy track suit wearing used car salesman. I wish them luck. Any club that can challenge Albion and Surf to provide better service to kids is worth supporting.
I have been on record as more than supportive of GPS - you questioned their "pathway". Anything to improve or modify a blighted system I am all for.
He left Sharks before State Cup. You forgot that and no I do not believe the parents or anyone was ok with that move.
He also left Albion. I know you dislike Albion and that's ok but I don't think you are intimately familiar with all of the issues. If you are please share.
I don't doubt you may be correct but all of this cheerleading is odd to me.

The girls DA and ECNL coverage in OC is not very good, it is stopping kids from competing at those levels.
Let's not exaggerate here. A group of disgruntled parents tried to sell this idea four years ago with a full on assault on CSC. It is just as false today as it was back then. As the ring leader ("San Diego Joe") insisted I do, I have been tracking the 990's of CSC ... and all the other local clubs to CSC, from 2011 through what is available thus far for 2016. CSC was at the time, and still are financially out performing all the comparable clubs in there area. The data is out there for you if you really want to check the "Fact"s.
Toumi ... under performed as ADOC at CSC, in my opinion and from my observations as a long time parent at the club back then. He was not renewed as ADOC. One might suggest that CSC was not getting the bang for the buck that they expected. No surprise that his coaching contract negotiation did not go well (from both sides) and his contract was not renewed.
Four clubs in five years ... time to step back, look in the mirror, and do some soul searching. Admittedly, Toumi is a good trainer for youngers. But, at some point, you really have to stop blaming the clubs and the "untrustworthy track suit wearing used car salesman" and take some ownership. It may be a hard pill to swallow, but the record speaks for itself.
I would suspect that the DA coaches contracts go through the end of the DA season ... which is in the June time frame. So one might ask who is really the "untrustworthy track suit wearing used car salesman" ... in your words. Bailing on teams in the middle of the season.

Albion Homer LMAO.. You couldn't be further from the truth on that. I am a fan of Toumi but also disappointed that he left our team so abruptly. And has a track record as stated of doing it but He wasn't given any support and between DPL being a joke and having to coach 3teams on top of going to US training meetings etc.. he was burnt out and was too much.. do I think DA is a good thing yes.. I am beyond sad to see Toumi go and I think GPS is very lucky to have such a great coach.
I questioned the use of the word pathway in general, not theirs specifically. Of course parents are not happy with a move when they like a coach and didn't a lot follow him?
As for Sharks I did not forget about that but with an opportunity to be the director of a new DA program, would you have passed that up?
Exactly, Surf and Albion because management is not genuine with coaches and parents. You do not see these problems at Carlsbad and their DA teams are performing well with lots of local talent. I wonder why!
Carlsbad teams have always done well and their olders coach turnover is low. They seem to have truly harnessed a nice blend of physical, training, mental strength training. I am also impressed with their social media, celebration of their girls and professionalism.
They are doing this DA right from all accounts and reports I am hearing.

How many DOCs did Crusades go thru back then? Was it 4 in 5 years? Even on the boys side they fired a DO at the end of his contract and left one of their highest performing teams without a coach and thus no National Cup.
Do you know when DA coaches come contacts are up? No and I can guarantee you that if he left Albion under contract they would have no problem slapping him with an injunction to prevent him from coaching. They often use this threat. So do use a favor and stick to the facts.
