8 Wed, 11/06/2024 - 14:33 Anonymous 209.6.138.75 Parent Carolin Fuchs Porto Fall 2024 FYI - I could not select two teams in this form. Our son played on both Porto and NEFC Academy.
But I greatly enjoyed both seasons.		 I know that this age group needs to work on technical skills before really getting into the weeds of game moves. But I would probably try bringing in the sides/wings more - to see if they are ready. There are so many dribblings through the middle until they get stuck. Last year, on the Fulham team, players attempted some passing from right-defense to right-mid and then a run down the lines to pass it to the forward in the center.
 The amount of practices! The technical skills on Tuesdays.
Thank you for purchasing the lights so the teams could practice longer.		 The change of times for the different teams with the lights - it messed up our Runkle School carpool because the boys were on different teams. So we had to recalculate for every practice. But, of course, we were grateful for the lights! :) The evenly distributed playing time. I also liked that those who were sitting out were asked to run or play with the ball to stay warm. Nominations for most inspirational player. Great idea to do a social after one practice. Thank you! Yes I have used it throughout and am quite comfortable with locating information. Excellent - very quick response time. Both email, texting, and SE. All worked great.
7 Tue, 11/05/2024 - 19:15 Anonymous 209.6.135.117 Player Nawar Alnuaimi Fulham Fall 2024 I enjoyed this year’s fall season, I had a great time! I don’t think there is anything the coaches should change. I loved soccer tennis, it really helped with my aim. I also liked the ladder we did one practice, it really improved my headers.
I did not like how when I sometimes missed a shot, everybody would start trash talking. I loved the support from my team when I scored and even sometimes when I didn't score. I did not like how some of my teammates sometimes said I was in the wrong position, but I was in the right place and they weren’t. I thought they were fun and I really enjoyed them. Yes I liked watching and looking for things I could do to improve my soccer skills.
6 Tue, 11/05/2024 - 16:56 Anonymous 209.6.131.129 Parent Nina Daly Roma, B5 Academy Fall 2024 It was great! I wouldn't change a thing. My kid loved the season so much that he attended every single game and practice, even the optionals. So really that says it all. It was nice to have the kids practice as a grade as well as on their individual teams. Absolutely loved having the optional practice on Tuesdays which I heard were a lot of fun. I felt like we were getting as much play and practice time as the other clubs. Nothing The games were great. Everyone seemed to get a good amount of playing time, the kids played well together, coaching was great. The rule about not scoring after a certain point was pretty tough for Roma. Perhaps they could just stop keeping score instead of not being allowed to score after a certain point? Pizza was fun but I'm not sure how much the kids connected over it. Snacks after games seemed to work a bit better. No I did look at it at first but have a lot of things to keep up with kids school and whatnot. Sam, Padraig and Anna were great communicators and having SE up to date and synced to my calendar was a godsend. Sports Engine and email
5 Tue, 11/05/2024 - 15:18 Anonymous 209.6.130.215 Parent Amol Yajnik Roma Fall 2024 Enjoyed the season overall. Kids had a lot of success on the field, which definitely helped their moods throughout the year. The camaraderie of the kids was also great to see. At the start of the season, we were told that the kids would play the same position for 3-4 games and then move around. However, my son basically played either goalkeeper or defender for the entire season, with a very small amount of time at defensive midfielder. While not changing up the roles definitely helped the team perform better because they had pretty consistent positions, it was a different approach than what I thought would happen. I liked that the entire 5th grade was together and the kids got to know each other better, and also practice with different groups of kids instead of only practicing with their team all the time. The parking situation when practices were at Cypress! But I realize that is out of your control. Games are the most fun part of the week for the kids, and they played really well, so seeing their enjoyment was the best part. It was also good to see the kids adjust to the larger field and team sizes. No complaints. It was nice that people would provide food after some practices and games. My son doesn't eat pizza so he would sometimes opt out of the activities, but I understand that he's definitely in the minority on that one. Yes Watched the videos with my son, but didn't use it outside of that. Padraig is always great with his communication, and that mainly occurs through Sportsengine. The combination of Sportsengine and emails were sufficient.
4 Tue, 11/05/2024 - 15:07 Anonymous 209.6.130.215 Player Cole Yajnik Roma Fall 2024 I enjoyed the season because it challenged me because there were more players on the field to cover. If I were a coach I would have one individual practice to work on something just for your team. I liked the short scrimmages because it improved my short passes and touch. I feel like the practices were somewhat repetitive as in we did the same stuff a lot. No I liked that we had a new formation so I got to try new positions. I feel like we stuck with the same game plan the entire game even if something went wrong. No I liked the social activities because it helped me make friends on different teams. Yes I liked the tactical videos because it helped me learn strategy. No No
