Re: How did they grow?
It definitely happened because of Hassan. People will tell you Hassan is a lot of things but he's definitely an EXCELLENT recruiter. He also has a clearly defined strategy for the way he wants his teams to play and he's very good at explaining it. He's knows how to share a vision. (I was a '77 that played for him at Storm when he first came to the area. I still remember the speeches about how he wanted the ball to move on the field.)
Early on for the Texans they had a couple really successful teams. (The '88s anybody?) When a club wins national championships they quickly move up the ladder on the local and national club scene. Hassan also made a lot of savvy moves to benefit his club along the way.
With winning and championships and national exposure... parents quickly started migrating their children to the club. The Texans bumper stickers have become highly sought after no matter which team your kid is on. As the popularity of the club increased, Hassan chose not to put a limit on the number of teams in each age group.
People may not like Hassan but he changed the select and academy landscape here in Dallas. The clubs that want to battle him every step of the way are now copying him and the model he created.

Re: How did they grow?
It should also be noted that the Texans were one of the first, if not the first, club to field multiple teams in each age group. Before the Texans started doing that each club had only 1 team in each division. (Back then there there were just a lot more clubs. Some were good. Some were bad. But there were a lot of options on the club level to pick from.)bigtex75081 wrote:I'm not a Texans-lover but it's hard not to be impressed with what Hassan Nazari has done.

I guess it takes a while to explain how to play kick ball up to your fast forward.

People may not like Hassan but he changed the select and academy landscape here in Dallas. Yes, he taught his teams how to foul excessively, hired David May and came up with bling t-shirts. There is a special place in heaven for this guy. and get and The clubs that want to battle him every step of the way are now copying him and the model he created.

If only to be accurate, DM was training kids well before he went to Sting (probably started around the time his dd started soccer). The majority of those kids went on to play, as a team, with the Texans at U11. Then he went to Sting (when the 95s were U10) and then eventually back to the Texans.
