Truth:
There definitely will be girls' parents on the new board and I am sure that they will work to ensure there is sufficient focus on the girls program.
When I was on the NECSA board, we had a VP of Classic, a VP of Recreation and a VP for Girls. We found that the role of the VP for Girls was difficult because it over-lapped with the two program VP's. It was difficult to establish lines of authority, etc. Was just not organizationally efficient.
My own opinion is that soccer players are soccer players and as long as a club focuses on serving soccer players, the gender issue will be irrelevant. [My opinion--not saying that this was the thought process for the new club--I have not spoken to anyone about this.]
