>>[Big Daddy] Comeon now Chico, you can do better than this.
I never said anything as fact about CASl/ CASL VA. I said I was told something.....if its not so its not so. IN any case, what is the relevance? <<
That you tend to have what appears to be a high error rate.
>>"Depends on where they move and how far they want to travel. I know of ODP kids in the upstate that play at CESA...but also that play at CFC, USA, CASC, and outside of the state in Atlanta."
Yikes...before you didn't want poor kids from Raleigh to hav ot dirve to Greensboro? I assume these CLubs exceed 50 miles?<<
Actually, they don't. How much do you actually know about South Carolina soccer? No, never mind; however, you might want to remember the old saying about the term "assume" -- it makes something out of you and me.
>>Look.....there are always good reasons for doing different, but typically a parent will choose a local option over a distant option. So a kid within 30-40 miles of Greenville will in fact likely choose CESA, his only choice.<<
Breathtakingly untrue. I know of no recreation kid that will choose to drive 30 miles from Spartanburg to Greenville. I know of no classic players that will do it. I do know of some challenge and premier players who would do it; on the other hand I know of excellent ODP players that choose to play at CFC and USA who choose not to do it.
>>"I actually want two things. First, I'd like Columbia area kids to have more choice than they have today"
What about us po folk in York County? We don't get mo stinkin choices? Right.....<<
You have at least two SCYSA soccer clubs serving a relatively small population. On a per-child basis, you have more choice than Columbia children.
>>And before you play the race card and the class card....make sure every poor minority kid in your backyard is taken care of before you try to help your reach out to Columbia
I ain't buyin it cuz. <<
It's hard not to talk about race and class when the subject under discussion is the forced dissolution of a partnership designed to go after underprivileged/at risk childen, isn't it?
Okay...and since my backyard actually is Columbia, I think that you've really accomplished something with this post...an absolutely perfectly incorrect post. Wow.
