I ask again, based on what? Last seasons results only? There is nothing from this season that could determine where a team should be other than the judgement of the club and coaches.

The CMF Div 2 team only had 9 returning players, 1 dropped from Div 1, 2 from out of club and 7 came from either div 3 or div 4 so no matter how long anyone has coached in this age group it would be difficult to evaluate where a team should be with that level of turn over. As they say in...

I think it depends on the what was communicated at the initial selection. was it understood that a player can be dropped/replaced. If a club wants to go down the route of allowing players to be dropped then that position needs to be clear to all concerned at the beginning.

Hard to say the ban should be lifted when we don't yet know the reason for the ban.

I'm curious as to which team you think should move up and why. There is a lot of turnover at the u18 age group so how can you possible tell? I can only assume you are basing that on last season.

That may be a (small) part of the problem but teams being added/or removed after the deadline is usually as a result of a club not being organized and not submitting their information on time. IMO if you miss the deadline you don't play the first week. The schedule should be able to be adjusted...

Is there somewhere where I can find a list of all the club abbreviations that are used on the schedule? I'm having a hard time keeping up with all of the clubs now.

Thanks for the clarification... hard to keep track of all these Surry Clubs

Sorry for the late response...Vacation! They are not following LTPD at the younger age groups where the early stages of development occur. This is pre MSL and the districts really don't look at what happens in U8-10. CMFSC excluded them from their mini-development league for this reason I...

How did Vancouver United end up in 5D? At least in my U18 Div 2 schedule they are there.

Just a quick point. Its Tri-Cities District now and not Westminster. I would seriously question that NCU has started to produce quality programming. Their enrollment seem to continue to decline with fewer teams at all levels unless something has changed for this season. PoCo is really...

I've coached for many years as a volunteer. I've taken several of the "weekend courses". I've attended many coach development sessions run by our clubs technical staff and spend a time talking to our technical staff and more experienced coaches. I watch other coach's training sessions to get...

If you are relying on looking at the end of season standings to see if you have a good coach I would suggest you have it all wrong.

We have that issue in the Tri-cities but the ratio of individual teams are not considered, it is the overall club registration. The younger age groups enrollment is predominantly local so the ratios are easy to maintain.

I believe BCSPL clubs are not bound to districts but register their players directly with BC Soccer

The district chairs are generally elected by and from the club district reps so in most, if not all, cases the chair will be affiliated with one club or another. This in and of itself is not a conflict of interest, unless the Chair has veto power or can unilaterally make decisions without a vote.

I'm not sensitive at all about the issue. I know nothing about it. You seem to be posting about it in several threads. Can't we just have one thread for this?

What is the specific violation that they are being accused of? The club members need to deal with the situation. Unless there is a specific violation of BC soccer rules then they shouldn't be involved.

Can you just start a separate thread rather than high-jacking every other thread with the same BC Tigers posts?

Why would they?
