Breaking news out of the MPSC program: the classic/challenge teams now have a standard uniform for practice. Should your child not have the proper uniform on, they will not be allowed to practice starting today.

Whew....and I thought we would make it through the Fall season with nothing great to talk about out of the lowcountry.

Kickbacks from uniform vendors, or a socially responsible attempt to boost the recession economy by increasing mandatory spending? You decide.

Sorry...couldn't resist.

Man, I hated any attempt to make mandatory practice uniforms take hold. I paid good money for all my tournament tshirts...where else was I gonna wear them?! lol

Personally, I like the idea of the uniform practice look. It makes it much easier for dividing players into teams (only one/two sets of vests needed usually) and has a professional look to it. I think this is a good move for MPSC!

I agree

I think you will find this is standard in many places.

All a matter of perspective...just depends on whether you're the administration mandating the uniforms or the player/parent who has to pony up and buy them. It's easy to cite the benefits of a practice when it's someone else who has to actually pay for or implement it. Just ask anyone in public education!

uniforms....we don't need no stinking uniforms....

we need effort, a ball and kids to play. who cares what they play in.

Heck when the "trio" headed over seas on an all expenses paid excursion/training the kids started playing shoeless. I almost called Tom from Tom's Shoes to see if we could start getting the free pairs sent to Mt P for the soccer program.

MPSC does a great job of alienating parents and kids - that is why 1/2 of Bridge & DISA are MP kids.

Just give them some time and they will be getting some different leaders - one of their DOC's already quit once.

I think you will find that they do no worse job than any other club in town....you sound like someone who been pissed off by someone

Why bring public education into it when we cannot find anyone to spell Flamboyant correctly.
