Thanks for the input. You are right - an ex anything is usually not good. In this case it is a VERY good thing - though I shouldn't have referred to him as Ex.
Matt Job is our Executive Director. And no its not just another salary. SCU/MP has grown and needs to keep up with its growth. The two DOCs who have been around for several years coaching R3PL, Academy and Jr.Academy teams have been largely running the club. I'm sorry that some may not know them - but I think you will find they are pretty well known around the state and region.
It became clear that in order for the club to meet the needs of the players we needed to have a true chief/grand poo bah. Matt brings not only a very good knowledge of our soccer culture, but a very successful business background. In the 45 days he has been on the job, the club is more smooth running, relationships with coaches, parents and players are improved and our ability to provide an even better environment for our players in occurring.
If any of you are involved in a club - you know how important it is to have someone (Exec Dir) who can let the DOCs do their job and get on with running of the club.
Please welcome Matt and offer support as it will ultimately be good for all soccer no matter what club you are from or support.
Best,
Bunky
