First and foremost, I am in no way connected with TG or YJ. However, I must say that if this is indeed true and is referring to SL, it is a huge loss for TG. I had the pleasure of playing for him many years ago at West Babylon when he a coach at the boys program there. He is one of the best coaches I have ever played for. Head and shoulders above the rest, inclusive of the D1 coach I played for in college. If he is starting his “own thing” I’m certain that players will follow him and he will draw top talent from other programs.
Anyone know the name and or age groups of this startup? Sounds good
Sounds good? No it doesn't. It certainly is not a option to follow the coach, see how strong his team is next year. He can put together a decent team but will never draw enough talent to beat any significant teams. 2 options- stay at TG or jump to YJ. The 2020 team is so strong because of the talent on the team, was he a good coach? Yes, but he didn't need to do a darn thing except rotate kids. Just like many TG and YJ coaches. The kids on that team play and train hard year round, not under SL, that is the reason they are so strong. Good luck to him, its tough to get new clubs going, even tougher to get dysfunctional clubs turned around.
You TG 2020 parents need a life. You have a good team but honestly the kids are 11-12 years old , calm down. You belittle the coaching so what exactly are you paying the Smiths for, you should all just stay together and stop paying TG if these 12 year olds are so good the coaching doesn't matter.
