Wow Patriot, I hope the Kool-Aid taste good, because you sure are drinking it. It is amusing that when a player leaves CESA and goes to another club, they are ranted with sarcasm and ridicule "took their balls and ran to another club", but when CESA lures one to them from another club, they are met with open arms and love. And when this occurs, who pays the price? Usually the local/Upstate/Greenville player who gets moved down to Challenge or Classic. And often times this is a player and family who have played for and supported GFC, St. Giles and CESA from day one. Why do they get moved down? Because CESA knows, odds are, they will not leave, and will live in hope of getting moved back up. In fact Patriot, your daughter should have always been on the Premier team and she proved that in Seattle. It's too bad you live in Greenville county. You got treated like a second class citizen, when in fact all you did was support the Club for many, many years. As to all the discussion as to why so many left the U18 pool this year, you would have to start with the Coaches and Club, then move down to the money, travel, time issues. It is not that these girls lost interest in soccer. They all are looking forward to their high school seasons.
