National Cup - 03/14U

Are the wc parents complaining about losing in extra time the same ones whose team brought half the ecnl team to nc. They played kickball just trying to get the ball up to their ecnl studs. That's why after one of our girls would lose the ball up top, our coach would yell "hurry up and get back you know it's comin". And then their parents would cheer like they were at an ayso game because they just kicked the ball 40 yards in the air. I would rather my dd's team lose playing with her own team than playing like that. Good luck to all the original teams left in the final four.

I'm not surprise that it occurred seeing that Carlos was the better coach and the girls played their hearts out. Carlos is open minded and a National Champion coach...he really developed the team seeing that he had the team less then a year when he put the team together vs Cris having the majority of the team for several years. But what really helped Cris was the fact the girls on the team were already talented and have great attitudes. Good luck to the remaining teams..games going to be epic.

Not agreeing or disagreeing with what you're saying as I don't have a dog in this fight...but the bolded portion seems to fly in the face of conventional logic, no?

I'm giving credit to coach Carlos for his coaching methods but also giving credit to the girls in Legends for being very talented which is true. I wish the girls the best with their new Academy coach and for the parents really cool peeps as well.

Deadpool, do you have personal experience with Carlos as a coach? Understand there was a group that left after the 1st round of NC because they were unhappy with the team. Maybe they thought the team underachieved all season? My understanding is they played with only 12 players the rest of the tournament. I'm sure their success was part of his coaching style but also the talent he had left on the field.

From my understanding was that there was a lot of drama between some players and some parents. Unfortunately it happens, this has nothing to do with him from what I heard speaking to some of the parents and clients. If some of the parents believed that they were underachieved, I would have to disagree considering that he put the team together in a short time. They did what a lot vs teams that have been together for a longer period time have not achieved. How many DD would like to be on a team that played CRL? How many would have liked to have played in NC on gotten as far as they did? I'm sure everyone can agree that there is always some sort of drama in a team whether its the coach, player or the parents. It's normal because we are all humans and we all have different mind sets.

You're right reference the drama. I was just wondering if you had personal experience with Carlos as a coach? You seemed to credit him with his team advancing as far as they did (dismissing the talent) and on the other side, giving credit to the Legend girls talent (dismissing the coach). That's all I'm saying. Maybe you're right and he is that good.

Good luck to the Final Four teams!

Lots of good teams came together this year due to the age regrouping. Quality coaching abounds. Hopefully the players (parents) stay the course and don't start jumping ship. DA grass isn't always greener.

A lot of the 2nd team Coaches today will be the Ecnl coaches next season at the 03 age group. I would anticipate most Team's staying together and will choose between ecnl and da based on their DD's skill set and desire to play hs soccer.
 
Not sure if the game was decided by better coaching & I have respect for both of them. Both teams had a short bench and I'm aware of GS player situation. Legends became a MASH unit leading to this weekend with 3 starters sidelined due to injuries & sickness. Yes both teams played their hearts out and plenty of scoring opportunities. GS converted a beautiful free kick about 30 yards out. Congrats to GS and it sure was a great match.
