Yes, I know my contract is for one year, and yes I know the year is not over, but my contract was for One year of training and guidance, NOT a year of humiliations and verbal abuse.

You broke the contract by cussing and denigrating me and my friends. Yes, you broke the contract, not me; now please release me from your team so I can go and do what I love – play soccer.

Parents from Titans’01 West please talk with Coach Renato Sampaio and ask him to sign my release, I never offended anyone and is not fair that I should have to pay for his bad behavior that you all have witnesed these past months.

Wow, I don't have a dog in this fight, but if I was a parent on the Titan's team I would probably call a meeting and talk about giving this family a release assuming of course what they are saying is true. This type of negative comment not only hurt your team today, but is a killer come recruiting time. Good luck....

Yes, you need to go to NTX

I AGREE - Parents should do something.

11.1 NTSSA CODE OF ETHICS FOR COACHES
This code of ethics has been developed to clarify and distinguish approved and accepted professional,
ethical, and moral behavior from that which is detrimental to the development of the sport of soccer. (The
term “Coach” shall include, but is not limited to Head Coach, Assistant Coach(s), Manager/Trainer and/or
Team Representative.)


ARTICLE I - RESPONSIBILITIES TO PLAYERS
1. The coach must never place the value of winning over the safety and welfare of players. Winning
should be the result of preparation and discipline with emphasis placed on the highest ideals and
character traits.
2. Coaches shall instruct players to play within the written laws of the game and within the spirit of the
game at all times.
3. Coaches shall not seek unfair advantage by teaching deliberate unsportsmanlike behavior to players.
4. Coaches should not tolerate inappropriate behavior from players regardless of the situation.
5. Demands on players’ time should never be so extensive as to interfere with academic goals and
progress. Motivation for excellence should include academics as well as athletics.
6. Coaches must never encourage players to violate NTSSA recruitment, eligibility, or guest player rules
and policies.
7. Under no circumstances should coaches authorize or encourage the use of medicinal or performance
enhancing drugs, or supplements of any kind whether legal or illegal, prescription, or over-the-counter.
Medication and supplementation of any kind should be the responsibility of the parents and/or legal
guardian. Players should be directed to seek proper medical attention for injuries and to follow the
physician’s instructions regarding treatment and recovery. At no time should a player be put at risk by
returning from injury prematurely or by being forced to play while injured.
8. A coach's dealings with players and parents must be upfront, honest, and forthright. Coaches must
always be honest and refrain from misrepresentations to players and parents.


I am not sure this helps, but it is an interesting read

Yes, is time that somebody put a stop to this. My son himself was suffering of all this abuse thanks to so call "COACH" RENATO SAMPAIO.so glad my son is no longer playing for this academy and coach. He is a great COACH HUMILIATING the kids.

The fact that it is on here and not in an email to NTX raises a huge red flag on this one. Once again we have the "somebody" should do something. Dude YOU are "somebody".

but if the bb's won’t play with that coach any way... there is no sense on denying the release (they are just filling your roster) … No?

This coach has a bad reputation on this board. I've seen his name before. He must be a fantastic recruiter if he's still fielding teams.

Last time played Titans'01 they had one boy in the bench only

Parents should meet and decide what the best for the all bb's here... this is just sad.

All clubs should address the language issue their coaches.
If you can't use the language in the corporate workspace then why should you use it with kids.
This isn't the only coach that uses this type of language and I applaud the parents for not standing for this.
I see parents that will allow a coach to curse on a daily basis just for the sake of, "I'm on a top team."

Way to Go Parents for standing up!
We need to set standards for our kids.

If the parents want to send a message and get him fired, get enough of them together, behind the scenes of course, and boycott your first CL game next month. Make sure you have enough whereas he can't field a team. Classic league does not take lightly teams forfieting games and the stink they will make with the higher ups with the Titans should be enough to start the ball rolling in regards to sending him on his way. (Yes, I know he's reading this, that's fine)

......and no, my bb doesn't play for the team Titans plays against in the first game. He'll see them later in the season.

You do not need the coach to authorize a release. You can go between now and January 31st to North Texas Soccer and request the release. You will still be obligated to pay off your debt with the club, but you and your BB do not need to endure this type of actions.

I am 100% positive of this.

Call Ronda at North Texas...972-323-1323. NTX will grant you a release, but only a release to rec (which means you can practice and guest play with other teams until July 1). In order to transfer to another competitive team, you would still need the permission of the coach...in addition to the signed release granting transfer, he must send in a letter giving his permission for you to transfer.

Once you are released to rec, you can guest play and practice with whoever you want to. If you are guesting, North Texas will sign the guest player release form for you...it all goes through Ronda. She's very easy to work with and quick...especially for releases to rec. Haven't been through this with my BB but have been a manager for 4 years and have had plenty of experience with this in both receiving players and releasing them from our team.

Titans01 Parents, teach something good to your boys out of this mess; “man up" and support this family. There will be a stain associated to this team’s name, if you turn your eyes away and pretend there is no problems within your team.

Everyone will be watching you during the Winter Fest Tournament... good luck.

After all, it could be your bb next time…

This poster is exactly right. But you need to "call" Ronda. They get tons of emails, and tons of correspondence/letters. She is extremely nice, and helpful, you will get it resolved in 1 or 2 phone calls if you call her. Good luck.

Good for you.Follow up. Quote specific bylaws by number that he has broken. Site specific instances with dates locations etc and get written statements from as many parents as have the cajones to step up. Just some advice from a former A&D Chairman.

Ronda is very nice and extremely helpful. You will have to call her as she gets alot of emails this time of year and if you call you will be as someone who is serious.
