SC Soccer Forums SCSoccer.com Forums Club Soccer & ODP U14G Lowcountry Challenge Team for Fall 2009

Numbers has always been a issue for girls in the lowcountry.Not just this age group..How many U16 teams are in the area? Very few...if any. The 17 group started having issues when they where 13s also..The reality of it is..numbers are going to force some of the present U13 teams together sooner or later..The question is when and who's going to drive across town first..

Good Luck Craig. It will be very interesting to watch how this progresses.

So to “kittens” point, which I liked.
Call to Action was asked:
• Like minded parents looking to form a U14 Challenge in the Lowcountry.
• 3 Nights of training, maybe a 4th.

Craig…I make the Second parent with a kid that fits your description.

Can we get to 3, so we can get to 4….and so on.

As for those offering constructive advice, thanks and keep it coming.

Topside,

Thanks for the support. I only regret that you cannot be the second but you can be the sixth.

Anyone up for Lucky 7 ?

Craig

So you are taking all comers? No tryouts?

I think I have the correct order...... Craig's child, who is a "nice" player has been associated with the following clubs

JIYSC to CUSC to JIYSC to MPSC to BFA (Current team?)

Which club will take the team as assembled by a group of parents..... SSC? DISA? (CESA? and just find a field)

Coach P,

Please re read opening post, looking for likeminded parents.
Any other questions please e-mail, would love advice.

Thanks Again,

Craig

With the numbers we have in the lowcountry..alot of players have played for several clubs..My child has played for three and we are in good standing with all three..Everyone understood why we made the move..I don't believe the parents are going to put a team together..I think they just want to see who is interested in this as the numbers of girls dwindle as they get older..Your team will have the same issues over time..What club would turn a whole team away? How many times have we seen whole squads of kids follow their coach to another club? Happens all the time..As long as they are paying the bills..Don't paint this child or parent as a problem..It's a lowcountry problem

Clinton,

Order is close.

JIYSC from U6 to U10 Boys, club discouraged her from playing with boys the next year.

Went to then affiliated club BFA 94GOLD Girls for 1 season.

Has been at MPSC since, currently 94 Elite.

She has guest played with many teams so that may have caused the confusion.

She is a defending CHALLENGE SPORT 3V3 National Champ.

I am a little proud of her.

I am not sure which club the team could be associated. I do have a fondness for all in the area for different reasons.
I definitely will not rule out JIYSC

I do appreciate the compliment but I do think "nice" is the last word I would use to describe her.

Thanks again for your concern.

Craig
