BlueBandit is right, Tigres is a fraction of the cost and they are in second place! The difference...it seems that Coach Medina is there to help develop the kids to the best that they can be and strive for more, I wished I had jumped ship when I had the chance, but I admit that I was more interested in the "name" of the club my son would be in. BIG MISTAKE! Lesson learned!

These answers always crack me up. You are saying that the so called "name clubs" do not develope! I call B.S....if you don't like the team, leave at the end of the year or there are ways to get out but don't blame the club because you are your BB made a mistake.

I found it is amusing that all the faults are point to the coach and the club because their BB are not being developed the way the parents want it to be. I am not trying to say anything negative but maybe some of the BB are not trainable?

I would bet it is not the coach, club or players... the parents are probably the reason for this team falling apart/// We parents always seem to screw things up

Really? What's up with these parents?

Parents? They are not coaching the teams, they are paying the money. There are specific rules at each of the these clubs where parents have absolutely NO INPUT to a coaching decisions.

The problem here is that this club is in the Top 2 in the USA and there 98 Boys top team is not performing well over the last 3 YEARS - going from 2nd, 8th, and now 10th. This club will get rid of the kid and any parent that causes issues, right? Hence, it cannot be the parents that determine the performance of this big club at this particular age division.

This club is really down to 2 years left before the Academy level begins at this age level....

I doubt a club would get rid of a parent causing trouble especially mid season... Clubs like money and as you said the Texans are a top 2 club.

I would also say parents have much more influence on what takes place on the pitch then you give them credit. Who has more influence over your kid the coach or you as a parent? I would say the parent... If you as a parent are constantly complaining about the play of the team or how your kid is not getting enough playing time or how you dont like the style of play... that will filter down to your kid, which in turn will effect their play, how they listen to the coach and how they interact with there team mates

Just a thought...
