SC Soccer Forums SCSoccer.com Forums Girls Varsity Soccer Effect of ECNL on Viking Cup

These are about the dumbest posts i have ever read. The bottom line is all of the teams played and played well at the VC. One team won and the rest went home losers. Some players went to play on the national stage based on their abilities, but all of the players should be commended for their efforts and none of you has the right to pass judgment on any or the girls for your own selfish reasons regardless of where they played. These girls are all winners in my book,

Thanks for making my point.

You say "impacting VC not part of the decision".

Club has gotten so arrogant and has such control over many parents and players, it snubs it's nose at HS.

Perspective...and practicality...could a national league, scheduling a tournament for 110 teams from 32 clubs from multiple states all over the U.S., possibly take into account every "important" HS tournament in every state in their membership when scheduling an event?

Or does it seem just a little bit more "arrogant" to assume that everyone in a national league needs to schedule around OUR particular season, and OUR particular tournament that WE consider "elite" because it affects US?

I'm just sayin'. All I ask is that you take a serious look at what you're saying before you start the flaming. If what I said still seems ridiculous, then flame on. I'm a HS coach and I'm wearing my asbestos long johns.

Well said....COACH.

I thought it just gave you cooties? o.O

Chass,
you got cooties?

Sshhh...I've got them under control!

I hear they've got a vaccine for that.

I have a question for you coach. Why are not other HS sports
venues going through these scheduling conflicts. Just soccer. Do you think that it's because non interscholastic sport like soccer is a business first and they need to run year round to survive? Because non intersholastic teams like basketball, baseball, softball are not looking at the money,more about development. These non soccer athletes do play year round, but they play 8 months of club, and 4 months of high school. why is club soccer 12 months now.
