DIGC 2019

This isn’t a goalie issue...
61 GA (imagine how many she possibly stopped)
10 GF (in 19 matches...)

2Wins
2Draws
15 Loses (11 by +3 Goals)

My question is how does this team get better?
Talent acquisition?
Coaching change?
Or just accept it?
At this age after 15 loses are you numb to it? Do some loses sting more than others? From a parental stand point, is it ok and do you see progress?

You are wrong AngelinaGoalee! Obviously it is right there in front of you. The goalie should have scored more. I mean... come one. Only 10 goals?

All kidding aside I'd bet that poor kid was thrown under the bus by more than just HighFive. At 61 GA, and adding in the shared assumption AngelinaGoalee made that she most likely stopped a lot of other shots, seems like she was the only one actually working in the games.

U13 12 games 1win 2 draws 9 loses
U14 19 games 2wins 2 draws 15 loses
U15 22 games 4wins 8 draws 10 loses
U16/17 22 games 15wins 2draws 5 loses (6th playoff spot)
U18/19 22 games 4wins 4draws 14loses

That’s not a good look for the club. Bad trend.

Damn that’s 97 games 26 wins 18 draws 53 loses...
Looks like the u16:17 is the crown jewel.

At least they won’t have to play High School and risk messing up all of that amazing coaching they’re getting in Farmers Branch.

The trend has become the norm.

For what is worth, the Texans 07s and 08s are quite good. If they can hold on to them, maybe it'll turn around. The 05 FDL is also excellent and could probably compete in the DA, but those girls seem to like where they are at.
There is hope for a better future, but it's a pretty fine margin that could fall apart easily.

That 05 FDL gotta top notch coach that knows his way around and also had an athlete called up for the National Team so apparently they are defying the odds.

Angelina should know...I heard she only sleeps with coaches d1 and above.

Don’t matter...LH D3 and above

What's up w 15 min halves do we get a refund do we even count the games as legit?

Ha you are thinking too logical. This isn’t the real world and who would have ever guessed we would have weather challenges in April in Texas. That never happens. Well except last year and the did the same thing and I’m still awaiting our refund. I feel sorry for the poor people driving to a turf field in Fort Worth for a 30 min game!

And apparently only those of us lucky enough to have our games at Cox got to play half a game and double a score. The other teams got to play a whole game. Because that’s fair and equal. Whatever. So over this tournament. Had we had a whole game, our score would have been much different. We had 90% possession and the game would not have ended in a draw. Kudos to D’Feeters Composite keeper though. She did a great job.

Seems like a lot of folks taking shots at the Texans, must be some built up hate going on here. There is no question this tourney is run by a bunch of donkeys that have no respect for others time and money. Look no further than last year and the way they handled the situation, I’m surprised so many teams from overseas came back. What were they thinking? I assumed that the FCD DA, Solar DA, Sting ECNL’s of the world didn’t return this year for that reason. I would have never thought the Texans kept them out, never known the Texans to turn down that kind of $$$ for any reason.

As for all the haters on the Texans DA program, I’ll admit from a distance it looks really bad, especially if your just clicking away on your smart phone to Judge their program. It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to figure out the Texans aren’t fielding all their best players at the DA level, if they did, then I have no doubt they would compete with the likes of FCD and Solar at the DA level. However, I know some of these coaches and they are definitely headed in the right direction with the program, the club just needs some buy in on what the correct pathways are for the best players by coaches and parents.

Not hate
Try disappointment
Hell im still with the club
Would love to see it put the energy and professionalism it deserves into the players and programs

Texans used to have events, and weekly programs free to members. But over the years, internal battles and competition with coaches and also what seems to be a lack of concern has yielded these sub par results. There’s no reason the club shouldn’t still be thriving....if given the proper TLC.

I understand the disappointment and it seems to be warranted. I’ve talked with many Texans parents, most that I talk to say “Oh Yeah they offered my DD a DA spot, but we turned it down” this poses a very important question, Why did they turn it down? At the other two big ntx DA clubs it seems like most players and parents aren’t turning down that opportunity, most of them still want to play high school, but the DA opportunities are worth more than just playing high school to them. Is the staff at Texans on the same page when it comes to this? I know the Texans curriculum at the DA level, they offer many training advantages that aren’t offered to the FDL or LH teams. Texans has tried to move girls up from their FDL and LH program and on many occasions the parent and player are turning it down. Again, the big question is why? To build a thriving DA program the Texans need to get answers to these questions pretty quick.

Right
Exactly right
Even coaches turning down opportunities...requests to coach DA for texans

and DA offers suddenly rescinded when LH coach complains

Was the D’feet Blk/Liverpool match vs.  Sting RL a half a game and double score, or a full game.  4-0 win by feet against the top RL team.  The win is not a surprise as Liverpool is the dominant D1 team... but 4-0?   Smackdown.

Get rid of Hassan, he's a joke for the girl's side. Everyone thats been around the block knows he doesn't give 2 cents about the girls side...Texans are just better version of the Dfeeters club. Hence why they get leftover girls from Solar, Sting, FC Dallas.

Now that’s funny right there, I don’t care who you are.

It was a 60min game. score could have been worse, Feet dominated...

Looks like one of the favorites will get knocked out in Quarters w/ Solar ECNL vs Texans FDL at 5. Should be a good one. let us know how it goes...gonna be dialed in to a bigger playoff game. GO STARS!!

That’s a simple pick. Solar should win 2- 0.

Feet/Liverpool are the favorites.  Fever can’t beat them.  

The Texans FDL team has a shot v. Solar ECNL.  The solar ECNL center mid is a special player.  

“Regional League” exposed.

I guess not so simple, right straight talker?

More like big talker.

2-0 was right, but wrong direction.
