How’s the 2023-24 season going?

You don't see a bunch of players who move the other direction, trying to get playing time?

We see a decent number of those up here.

Yes, what you described is the direct result of talent consolidation, it reduced their playing time in their original team and forces them to look elsewhere for more play time.

I'm hearing it has to do with the coach and the players burned out. Starters are starting to look elsewhere. They may have to bring up their RL players to NL now.

I hear new blood at blues in terms of players and some top departures making other teams bloated and players anxious. Some looking for spots fearing cuts some looking for a promise. Some coach complaints - welcome to May across the board. What happened to Pats moving down? Anyone hear of coaching changes there?

Is that a thing? I’m always seeing NL to other NL unless being brought up on merit. I know koge has signed a few RL as well and it’s nice to see this pathway being realized!!! Means coaches are doing the training !

Just like how if the 2010 blues team would have stuck together and not been split between the slammers and blues current 2010 teams I’m pretty sure that blues team would still be dominating the surf team today like they did the sdsc team back in the day.

Big shake up going down fellas and someone is about to take over #1. I got PM breaking news, but I never share PM unless given permission. If the father allows me to share this grape vine rumor mill breaking news, then I will. Stay tune for big news for a new #1 in the 2010s for 24/25 season. Surf and Slammers will have their work cut out. This coming season is all about time to position your dd for best opportunities. Time to prep for YNT, College or the Pros. Good luck you guys :)

Amazing. Haven’t gotten the call up yet - just looking for the right coach … anyone?

I heard some big moves about to take place and possible coup for one club. I don't want to let cat out of the bag, but it might be the biggest haul of talent since 5 top Blues players went to Surf to go win the Natty in 2017. It happens right around this time. I had not heard from this dad in a long time and then he drops a big MOABs. My source said the deals are all but done but need the signatures (verbal don't mean squat in club) and all of us in sales were taught naught to count chickens before their hatched. 2010s will have a very competitive year for 24/25.

A coup! exciting! planned by students ? parents? professional organizers ? Creating the next blueprint for how to get things done in soccer! That’s a true “game of throw ins!!”

Crush, you are trying to get me in trouble! I can offer up a few items. First red card was on koge, called for a “last man” foul just outside the box, then a similar call on Surf just outside their box. Neither resulted in a goal. Surf could have scored perhaps 3-4 goals in the first 15 minutes but due to an offside goal called back, numerous shots over the goal from relative short range, etc. Koge’s goals were quality efforts, first being a 1v1 with their forward (who is big and strong) getting through Surfs center back and I can’t remember the exact circumstance of the second goal. The impressive thing about Koge is they are a hospital/patched up team with many players playing hobbled or not playing at all while Surf was at full strength. A great win for Koge. All the national camp players were there.

The second one came off of a free kick from their center mid to one of their defenders for the go ahead winning goal.. great game.

Contract talks are stalled at this point from my source. One club might get 8 players and one might be left with no roster. Transfer Portal is now open. Big negotiations going on. Carpooling is in play and all those toll charges. If carpooling is covered by a certain club, you might see a mass exodus. Someone once asked me, "was it worth the drive from Temecula to OC two days a week to play for the mighty Blues and great TB." I said, "yes." Two years my dd was coached by an honest and trustworthy coach and I appreciate that 100%. I was told to always play for the best coach, not the team. Best coach usually has the best team.

Take it with the grain of salt.

Blues is toast.
Legends is looking break roster size records and create a royal rumble atmosphere amongst players (they'll be able to scrimmage themselves 11v11 and still have bench pieces available to both sides).
Beach small roster tweaks.
Slammers small roster tweaks.
Koge, waiting on a couple of trophy pieces.
Surf, no clue.
Sporting in the toilet.
Pats signing several new faces.
Breakers, no clue.
LAFC, roster tweaks and waiting on a couple pieces.
Eagles, on an island to themselves. No clue.
All others, no clue.

We must have the same news source. Insane what's about to drop. Good luck to all the rest. I think Surf & Hog will be battling for 2nd place.

Legends and Koge will have big rosters - but isn’t it the norm that these teams start to collect players now due to injuries? They will want to have a backups esp 10s, CBs & FWDs players. If the backups are very good even better when one gets injured!

What team at Blues is toast? Are coaching assignments out yet?

Pats with new faces could be a game changer for them / the 10s looked strong for a bit.

Beach plays beautiful soccer like mvla.

AZ and Royals for 09s at least are impressing and mixing it up . Surf and koge and Blues 10s same 3 as it ever was.

Movement is good - new faces better.

You're trying to convince us that Legends having a Record Roster Size is going to be good? Which kids on that team are you willing to bench for 60 minutes? How many injuries do you see that team having?

Koge - has a very good reputation of not having a very large roster because they care about their players
