Ladera Surf?? Becoming OC Surf?

From what I was told, it was an olive branch from the Slammers who are just trying to help out those orphaned teams. The South Slammers themselves are being merged into the Slammer organization as a whole and dropping the "South". Glad that these teams will have a home and support.

Yeah that's awesome, let em play!
 
I thought most of the South OC Slammers teams disbanded, or the club was falling apart? Guess it's a win for both clubs (Ladera and Slammers). Ladera gets to stay in SCDSL and Slammers is revived. Still, parents would be smart to look elsewhere next year after all the crap they've been put through. There are better clubs, and the whole Ladera selling point (local teams, kids you go to school with, families you know) is unrealistic at best once kids move into the older's program and want to play for better, more competitive teams.

Yes, we have played a few of their U-Little teams and they haven't been very competitive, but I guess it's been about training locally and with their friends, similar to the AYSO Extra program that Ladera Ranch AYSO has.

Oops, you misspoke. You meant to say..."once the parents move into the olders program and want to play for better, more competitive teams..." Simple mistake. I see it a lot on these boards.

Similar for '07 girls -- they have something like 6+ teams for that age group as well.

Can you please share how your parents handling switching uniforms 3 years in a row?

Can't imagine a logical parent putting up with this type of foolery. Changing your club name 6 or 7 times in less than 10 years might give a person cause for concern. Rumor is KT had to rent a larger storage space to house all the old club jerseys - given he has a hard time letting things go.

Old topic rehash. No club gives free uniforms out. They raise fees and “give” them basic kits. Then require jackets, backpacks and nonsense package that requires buying a cheap ball. Can see the new Liverpool case where new kits are to be handed out but fees will increase at least $500 to cover it all. Some teams even require “special” training gear at additional cost. Some parents will put up with nonsense and not care if kids better as long as it is convenient for them. The ones driving to OCGP for training are really hard sold with extra training days - unfortunately not helping development of the coaching is still bad
