Albion SC (East County specifically)

[East County Soccer Dad]

Is that where he fled to?

Yeah.
Has 2012 playing spring league.

Not sure where the Chula Vista director ended up

 

[Erasmus]

Yeah.
Has 2012 playing spring league.

Wow, that was a short "retirement" (how he framed it to his remaining Albion teams when he abruptly resigned).

 

[East County Soccer Dad]

He is an older. Most of the team has already been added to EA or higher for next year.

Sounds like some good 11s have been added.
Any word on your son?

MLS rosters still a lot of room.
Banking on outside players filling them I assume

Thank you for asking. No offer received yet. WE will start looking for other options.

Sorry to hear that.
Sounds like You expected otherwise.

Yes, he has performed very well for the team.
And his skill is in the top half of the team.

The coach seemed to feel he has a lot of potential as well.

Not sure what the disconnect is, but we will move on and hopefully it makes him stronger.

Hearing EA will be their top team for the U14 age group. They won’t field a u14 MLSN AD. Can anybody confirm?

Albion won't have a u14 MLS AD? That sounds insane.

The current roster of 18 players will be shocked to hear that.

Can’t see them not having that age but having all the other ages

Roster spots aren't always given purely on merit. A coach has a lot to balance and some of the roster decisions may not even be their choice. In addition to normal parent & player politics, there's always the coveted coaches kid spot or the friend/family of the DOC spot. Not saying that's the case here, but the age matrix is really mixing things up. It's hard as a teenager but hopefully your son doesn't take it as an indictment on them.
