Top Team (s) This Season??


KFDM COOP

Recommended Posts

now come on Kelly. Please do not start with the beating of lumberton last year. We played you guys in a scrimmage, in fact it was only the second scrimmage for us and it was the first year we were all together -players and coaches. Yes you scored more than us , in a scrimmage. You guys were in mid-season form and we were just getting started. Kelly had a terrific year last year as did Lumberton ,only loosing three games all year. Leave it at that but please do not start in on that we beat Lumberton bc last time i checked a scrimmage doesnt mean anything on a win loss chart. Thanks and best of luck for the rest of the year to Kelly and all SE texas teams--except when they play us  :P

Good luck to all the teams this year. Im going to try to make it to the Southeast Texas Showcase this year. I loved it when I was a player. My junior year I remember walking to the bus after a game with Nederland and Davy A. just happened to have watched that game.... Quite an experience having a pro watch YOU play instead of the other way around. lol

I'm sorry to let you know that there won't be a Southeast Texas Showcase this year.  Practically every team in this area is a part of the same district, no one from Houston wants to make the trip over here, and many of the local coaches wanted to get some games against Houston teams.

After re-alignment this spring, there should be an opportunity for more than one tournament, so the STS might return for the '09 season.

I think what DME means is that Nederland used to be a favorite (or one of them) to win the region, not just the district, and I certainly suspect that they began each year really believing that they had a chance to win it all. 

I'm not so sure that has been the case for a few years. 

you are right... We used to dominate.  I guess everyone else did catch up.

The problem with local high school programs is that the local club programs have lost their  level of play.  Sure they have a great team that comes along now and then  but over all the level of play has deteriorated.  Back a long while ago the club programs were fluorishing and to be on a upper level team meant something. Now the upper level teams are given out like candy.  Instead of having  one team per age group you now have two or three in any age group from the same club.  So there is no way any of these teams will be successful. It used to be the four clubs each had one team in each age group and made for good competition and so the kdis kept interested.  Now look at all the very successful programs in the state and they are fed by local soccer clubs.  And their local clubs are usally extremely strong and so the feeder to the high schools are a big help to the high school.  Without success or teaching the kids to actually play the game rite... the  kids get discouraged and go to another sport thus leaving the number of high caliber experienced players down in high schools.  The local clubs need to teach the kids how to play soccer at early ages and the kids will stay committed to the game until they graduate thus helping the local programs.  To make this point,,, last season all the teams were one and out in playoffs.  Everybody will stumble year in and year out but not all the teams from the same district.  Other areas are strong due to their clubs feeding them.  At kelly out of 36 boys in the program, only 15 played club last year at ANY level.  Nederlands numbers are growing fromclub  while PNG is falling.  I dont know about the rest of the area but I would bet Nederlands district domination could be returning soon and some of hte other schools will start to deteriorate. Its inevitable that sooner or later a program has a bad season.  Locally in the public schools they are finally getting the coaches that have played the game.  For years we all have waited on this and now the kids will be taught by players not by us wanna play... folks.

    • You have more faith than some other WOS fans😂
    • Go live in a third world country then get back to me about the word “poor”…..you ll have a different perspective.  Your right a kid shouldn’t suffer for parents decisions, but that’s the world we live in created by those who don’t teach responsibility as well as handicapping by giving handouts.  Cause and effect.   Now yes there are people who are hit with some tragic unforeseen circumstances who need help to get back on their feet but that’s different then a habitual irresponsible lifestyle  fema is a totally different animal.  And it’s actually  something I’ve never had to deal with…..so I can’t really speak on it but I do know it’s a govt agency and most govt agencies are poorly ran.  Natural disasters have been part of this earth for a long time….way before fema came along and people have managed. said kids get taught by said parents that the govt owes them for their circumstances instead of seeing for what it really is and the lesson that should actually be taken from such a life…..”I’m not going to be like my parent or parents….im going to look at others as examples …..my teachers, my coaches, any aunts or uncles, relatives etc etc that are successful…..I’m going to work hard and smart and make good decisions and what bad decisions I do make I’m going to learn from.” Suffering is a great teacher.  This earthly place is temporary and many will suffer even the righteous and even children. Life on earth is not fair….its not a new concept. The good ole race card.  I’m not surprised. I feel the same way no matter the color.  Whites are just as guilty as any other race.  It’s not a race issue it’s a culture issue.  You have allowed color to guide your thought process…..is that what you were taught. how bout you check out the income of many of those politicians you vote for who care so much about kids.  They go in as an every day working citizens then come out millionaires off of shady deals, kickbacks and taxpayers backs. They keep promising y’all false promises and you keep falling for it….bidens been doing it for over 40 years. i just wasted time on this reply because you are not hearing any of it……..you want handouts with no accountability. .sorry to the posters who wasted their time reading this…..it got off topic.

    • And that was in “deep blue” NJ. 
    • Baseball bat time again. You mentioned two “mental” disorders. That tells me they are made up in someone’s mind. Allowing a male in women’s restrooms and letting them compete in women’s sports makes them feel better about themselves? All they amount to is males who can’t hack it in the real world.
