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!

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.

I think you are the one who needs to focus. Where you think it's about driving and sitting in the car. For my wife and I, the lasting memories as we drove our DD to and from soccer practice will be about talking about life in general, laughing about stories or teasing her how tone deaf she is singing her heart out to a One Direction song. You couldn't appreciate that, because you aren't married and do NOT have any kids and why winning soccer tournaments is what you consider "YOUR MEMORIES". Winning was never the goal, but by focusing on her development she end up winning a National Cup, ODP Regional Championship and earned a lot of individual accolades in the process as her journey continues.

Brand new league, good for you and your club. Girls DA has no barring on my DD who will be in college, during the inaugural Girls DA Fall 2017 season. As for the use of the word journey, do you know who loves to use the word "JOURNEY" at the Legends .....JOSHUA HODGES! BTW, if this is JH how is your Audi A6? I haven't ran into you at the car wash lately.

Mr. Smith,
Right individual, and again wrong team. Which means she will play for the LA Galaxy SD 99 U18 team, yep another name change, not Surf or Blues as you have reported before. And she is attending CU as you pointed out not ONLY due to soccer but mostly due to our roots in Colorado and what it has to offer her and what she might eventually want to study. As for you, I wish Kennedy all the best in her studies and endeavors and I hope she sticks with soccer long enough for our daughter to meet on the field. You usually have good insight in the youth soccer world but your forum obsession is rather disturbing. Again good luck to your dd and your future enjoyment of watching her play.

The head coach and assistant coach of CU gave our DD team a tour of the campus, facilities, and program when we were there for FWR this summer. Just amazing athletic facilities and beautiful campus right in Boulder. Very grateful for coaching staff for accommodating us and the team. Good luck to your DD there.

come on Tugs why would you disrupt the hate with something positive that happened to one or DDs?

Not JOSHUA HODGES haha nice try though. I feel bad now you're pissy. I will stop badgering I'm just glad you have multiple people in the car for your commute so you can be free to post, repost, edit posts, look up people's DDs, put others down, search recruiting databases, search other states forums, promote ECNL (minus the E), bash our federation, figure out who is who in anonymous forums, etc. what a kick! No pun intended :)

You may be tempted but please don't text and drive!

Not pissy at all, I'm actually at the gym.

You're not JH, sure if you say so. You are definately not a parent though. A huge tell is when you posted we put our girls in college. The key word is "OUR", meaning you are a coach at the club. A parent would type Legends puts girls in college or they help my DD with college exposure.

See how this works, I keep replying to your posts to draw you to post more. The more you post the more you unveil yourself.

You are a genius! Not about me being a coach though, nice try. I told you I'm done and I truly am. I just don't like how you bully others on here. There is my truth. Over and out. (Maybe I'm a cop now)

I am more than happy to play the antagonist role on the forum.

Like a Legends coach would ever admit to posting on the forum, but if you must run along, adios coach!
