Not a big fan of this..If you coached three or four teams which team is going to find themselves sitting home to many weekends because of scheduling conflicts..Pooling age group practices..This to me means scrimmages..Who stands to gain in this scenario? The 15 group or the 17 group..That's an easy answer..So coaches are paid to coach several teams but the practices are held together? Does not sound like everyone is getting their monies worth.

Agreed 100%. No way a coach can do a credible job with 3+ teams. Two is stretching it. It's all about the $$$.
You obviously don't know Solomon. It's in no way, shape or form about the money. Coaching is his passion and not one player will suffer. I can vouch for that and for his dedication to each and every player on each and every team he will be coaching this Fall.

Don't know Solomon..I just commented on my experiences with coaches that coach mutiple teams.. Solomon will get stretched thin and he will have to make a choice on what might be best for one team..might not be for the other.. It's not about money hungry coaches..It's about getting what you pay for and not something watered down after the season is done and you're left with that bad taste in your mouth
Yes, RECCOS he's a volunteer... get real. Did I say that? No, I did not. I SAID it's not about the money with Solomon. He steps up where he is needed and he is a very effective coach no matter how many teams he is coaching in a given season.
Soloman's name is listed as to encourage players to tryout and not to start looking en masse for another club. We all know he can't coach that many teams but it will not be addressed until the checks are stroked and the names registered before they can change their mind.
This is the part of club soccer I am glad I don't have to participate in anymore. Sparking interest through one coach's name just to get numbers up and playing at one specific club knowing darned well that getting trained by the actual person is a long shot unless you are on a premier team. I've never understood the concept of "B" and "C" teams in youth sports, especially when they all live under the same umbrella.
Now to answer the main question: Try-out results for u-16 thru u-18 will be posted by 12:00pm 5/12/10 per the cesa website Premier/Challenge will be in the form of a pool and the Classic will be a roster.
