SILVER ELITE
Back to reality...Philosophy & style of play for us youth soccer clubs is very exclusive currently in socal. Coaches in the same club don't play the same formations, train with the same philosophy, or even the same style.
Nice to dream to be like Barcelona but when you play dump it to the bulldozer forward or play long ball EPL style when the games get tight to win, teams can revert to the jungle ball style. Winning, results, and parent pressure makes the kids nervous and some revert. If kids are given a choice most would rather "Win" then adhere to a style or Philosophy. Getting them to change is what we need to work on.
Watch the teams during the close tight games that's when you see their true style, Philosophy, or character coming through. Some step up and keep up with the programs while others revert and come here and try to minimize, make excuses, live in past glory.

Back on topic ...
This weekend is the last of the CRL games until 2017.
CDA Godinez playing TFA and FRAM this weekend, the reminder of their schedule will be the bottom half of the current standings (the two SD teams, CDA Esparza, Strikers South Coast, and LAUFA).
Two dubs for them and the league becomes a battle for 2nd? We'll see.
With that said I'm pulling for TFA to give them a game as Oxnard did.
Will try and report from the fields on Saturday.

Little drama at LAGSB vs. CDA Esparza. SB coach not happy about physical play by CDA and got mouthy, his argument being he wants his kids protected and game us getting out of hand, eventually talks enough that he got tossed. SB has no backup coach, so game immediately ends in a forfeit. Some exchanges between both coaches, and a few SB kids were yacking too, but it was handled ok, one of the cal south officials drove his cart on the field and things calmed. I did see the last play that got the SB coach worked up, it was a slide tackle, in which the player appeared to leave the ground with both feet, I thought it looked dangerous ...
Eventually they get the teams and refs back on the field and game resumes. As a friendly presumably. Took at least 15 minutes before it restarted.

You have wonder why this SB flight 1.5-2 team is even in CRL? 33 goals against 3 for in 5 games is ridiculous. How in the world this team is called "elite", at what? Why does such a big club not have a backup or assist coach around?
