"ML knew what he was working with" While ML may have a certain level of education on paper, but sorry, I have to respectfully disagree with the idea that he knows what he's working with. It's clear that he struggles with coaching, particularly when it comes to connecting with and effectively communicating with kids. One comment I see above saying that 'kids can’t take or make a pass.' Passing is a fundamental skill, and if a coach can't teach that after six months, they likely aren't qualified to coach at any level, let alone AAA. Unfortunately, it seems that ML doesn't have a clear coaching system, nor does he seem to understand what his players need to improve. I truly understand that anyone considering joining his team will give it a chance, but I think you’ll start to see what I mean after just a couple of weeks in his training sessions.

Reps/NYR/MM/TRW/Rebels
When trying to decide which is the better team, its like asking what's better chicken sh!t or human sh!t or bull sh!t
Get where I'm going..

MM have a parent culture issue. “Little Johnny is a star” as seen by crazy best player dad on this thread. Kids can’t take or make a pass. MM will be fine. New team next year. Likely little to no kids returning and most probably won’t even make another AAA team.

Sounds like the KS AA dad coming in and acting like money can buy talent.

LOL came mid-season, can't be that bad. Bench is the common denominator for 2 failed seasons back to back.

You all need to get your facts straight. ML came in for U10 with a team already picked - he inherited it, and couldn't make any changes after the coach who picked them all up and left on a dime last minute. Good group of kids, but couldn't compete at AAA. Not their fault.

So - ML tried to rebuild the team that he didn't pick for U11, when most kids were moving and committing early - took what he could and knew where they would stand. Team went from 2-29-2 in U10 to 6-27-0 in U11. 4 more wins is a small step in the right direction. Plus, didn't account for the fact that some of the parents are insane losers. 2 nutcase goalie dads and a bunch of parents who think their kids should play for VK but 'politics' is the reason they arent.

ML knew what he was working with, and is making changes again to move forward in U12. Stop the nonesense.

ohhh juicy, here with popcorn... is that you ML?
