The False Nine ™

One thing every coach eventually learns:

Sometimes you’ll care more about a player’s success than they do.

You’ll take the losses harder, the missed opportunities more personally, and want more for them than they want for themselves.

That’s one of the hardest parts of coaching.

Updates to District Standings in the Coach Portal ⚽️

We've made some updates to district standings during our beta testing.

- District Reporters can manually add or change points (this helps for districts that have PK wins or losses)
- Card Totals - now you can keep track of yellow cards, red cards, points and suspensions (Cards are not publicly shown)
- You can also view other district standings in your Region/Classification

❌ No more excel or google sheet updates
❌ No more hunting for fellow regional scores or asking other coaches

The coaching portal only needs☝️coach to help report and track district standings during season.

Improving Texas High School Soccer one day at a time
#txhssoccer

High school sports is a uniquely American tradition 🇺🇸

It’s worth saving, preserving and being a part of the development pathway.

Coach Krueger outlines many of these items in detail.

We owe it to our former, current and future athletes to be a part of something great.

No. You’re either in fairytale land or you’ve had minimal experience in this. If that’s the case we feel bad for you.

Volume discounts, minimums and other requirements do exist. We’re not talking about ordering some Gildan 50/50 shirts and wanting a good price for only ordering 7. Everyone understands that specific items like Gildan shirts go up in price when you order lower quantities. In our scenario,the nike keeper jersey price didn’t change nor did the ‘discount’ from BSN. It’s static. In this scenario the price was exclusively listed as additional screen printing from an outside screen printer you have zero business with.

All Coaches FOR YEARS ordered items such as the jerseys, jackets for their teams in minimal quantities and never paid these types of fees.

This is willful ignorance on your part. Stating ‘order the the blanks’ and forcing coaches to do 2-3 times the work, either hand delivering, paying out of pocket or doing 2-3 invoices for a small number of items is asinine. This attitude of ‘either pay the enormous fees’ or go make your job even harder from a fellow coach is unfathomable to read on top of our over worked and under paid profession.
