Okay you've got a ton of false statements that I want to rebuke.

First, JH is the Kanye West of SoCal youth soccer and is all marketing no training. He is a great salesman and he apparently has got you.

Second, they have never slighted me or my daughter. I did my research once I decided to move my player and believe me Legends wasn't even considered. They would kill to have a player of her quality.

Next, there are plenty of coaches in SoCal that are AMAZING developers of talent and the coach that my player had for most of her time from U14-U18 did amazing things to continue her development so you are way off on that.

Finally, my daughter trained with the Bakers for a year and she chose to stop due to non-soccer issues. They are good skills trainers but if my daughter was in the age groups that they coach I would absolutely never consider letting her play for them. I can't even see how the Junipero Serra HS parents put up with it!

whoa. Someone get into the Scotch a little to heavy last night? U need to reread the post I made. I didn't say anything about you other than you had an issue with JH which is obvious to everyone but you. I don't care one way or the other. I never said you were slighted . I said like many in here. You said continue her development I said talent developers that means at the early ages not u14 and above. The comment about the Bakers is true whether you like them or not . I know your smarter than me and amazing judge of talent (I am referencing the comment about the amazing luck any club would have if they landed your daughter) so please just let it go. You win your right.

BTW, do you like eggs? Because, it's all over your face for totally putting someone and their DD on blast :eek:

For the record, the snapshot I posted of you and your DD was public information and I never had to type either of your names. You have to admit it was pretty clever ;)

I would like to encourage NoGoal, 3thatplay, MAP as well as other members to stop posting information about other people's DD's on this forum. No good thing will come out of it in the end. It only makes you a cyberbully and creates needless stress and animosity. If you feel the need to be negative please keep your cross-hairs aimed at forum members, coaches, clubs, and teams (if you can't help yourself). There is no need to go after children.

Posters are allowed to post positive public information about players, such as...YNT, ODP, ID2, and college committment lists. There is nothing negative about posting a snapshot of the Google committment spreadsheet. Neither is posting factual information about players transferring from a university-which is also reported on the Google committment spreadsheet.

As for 3thatplay, he totally botched his post! Bigtime FAILURE!

Another stellar United States Development Academy clubs match-up today:
Legends G99 2- CUP Gold 0

At this level and point in the season, it's about the result. Legends bounced back in a must win with character and class. The excellent development of players has the team competing for a national championship as the defending national champs.

You see this is the true national championship, the others are merely league championships.

No update after the Legends U16 and U17 teams were eliminated from group play? Here let me post it for you. The girls played their hearts out, did everything that was demanded of them. Unfortunately, it wasn't their year. We will continue improving and look forward to returning to this true national championship next year.

I believe, I believe, I believe that we can win, I believe we can win......next year!

The level of parent sh*tiness on this thread is epic. I can only imagine what your daughters would think if they read this thread.

Some have dedicated their life to this and are down to the last months, then even less people will care. A little sad.

But, there is a women's college soccer forum on BigSoccer.
http://forums.bigsoccer.com/forums/womens-college.66/

CaliKlines, they even post about NC State's head coach being on the hot seat, if they have another poor season.

3TP, they have a Colorado thread just for you. You should catch up on the reading.

Legends bows out early in order to get ready for DA. Yes NoGoal, our girls are going to college just like yours, but we have a lot less miles on our cars, have saved quite a bit of gas, were able to enjoy these great teenage years without long commutes, and can talk about multiple national championships won. What great memories! What are your memories? From the bitterness of your posts I can only imagine.

Is that all you GOT! I can afford to buy new cars, so driving and gas was never an issue, especially being self-employed and the ability to schedule my own client appointments. I thank GOD for putting my family in a position we're in, so distance was NEVER an issue like for so many other families having to settle for IE clubs.

Winning multiple Championships maybe for the U16 team. The Legends U17, now U19 team is average at best. Now lets get into the nitty gritty of the U19 Legends team who lost the following players over it's age cycle. Player who eventually went on to commit to; Stanford, UCLA, UDub, San Francisco, LMU and USC. That doesn't include the other players from the IE who commute past Legends to play for OC ECNL clubs. Hopefully, with Legends getting DA that changes now...especially with the ulittle teams unable to qualify for USYS Championships this past season.

As for winning, that is where you FALL short and sounding more like a DOC! I knew back at U11 when my DD played for Legends that the girls side of the club was NEVER about development and more about WINNING. It was the #1 reason my wife and I pulled our DD from your club. The club goal and our DD's long term goal to develop as a technical and creative player didn't match. Especially, being the smallest player on the team. It was her only fighting chance, if she wanted to be recruited and play college soccer. Goal accomplished!

Winning multiple Championships maybe for the U16 team. The Legends U17, now U19 team is weak with only 1 decent commit to Wash St. That U19 Legends team lost the following players over the years, players who eventually committed to: Stanford, UCLA, UDub, San Francisco, LMU and USC. That doesn't include the other players from the IE who commute past Legends to play for OC ECNL clubs. Hopefully, with DA that changes now!

As for winning, that was NEVER the goal. It was for my DD to develop as a player and play college soccer. Goal accomplished!

So your memories include sitting in the car? Driving to client appointments before practice? You're all over the place focus on the question!

I'm glad you were able to reach your goal. For me it was always about the journey. And what a journey it has been! And we are not done yet! We get to finish it in the brand new league, the DA! Couldn't ask for a better soccer experience.
