    State of the Union - PBG Predators

    Many side threads on this club so wanted to start a new, hopefully unbiased thread.

    This is the only club we’ve known but are considering at least taking off the blinders this tryout
    season. Son is of the age where he is now serious about the game and has dropped other sports to specialize.

    We are blessed to have had numerous great trainers with this club who are very committed to
    the players. This in our perspective is the most important part of the puzzle.

    However, in recent years, there was been more discord and along with it inconsistency on the field. My son plays White and deservedly so, but placement onto our team has been
    head-scratching to say the least. Team placement seems more a negotiation between
    parent and DOC rather than objective. But where does that leave the dedicated players who truly want to compete and excel based on merit when they have to prop up the others who would be better off playing in a division down if not for parents ensuring their placement.

    I tell myself it is the same at all big clubs. But I am starting to wonder.

    I will continue to give the club the benefit of the doubt as my son has developed nicely.

    That was a pretty defensive, long-winded email the club just sent out, if their intent was to assure people, not sure if that communication accomplished that.

    Could post this for almost every club. But well written. Good luck.

      Sad but true. The state of youth soccer has become so political and about whose a** you kiss.
      If your son is on the white team without any agreements, I would look around to see what else is out there. Think one of the biggest problems is complacent parents. We are paying after all. It’s ok to expect more!

          We are also long time PBG members.

          While generally happy, ‘locked in’ to our kids teams, the club seems to have made
          a very conscious decision that growth is the priority above all else.

          After tremendous growth in recent years, the club is now having a hard time digesting it.

          The club does a great job of keeping their top teams (white) away from the other teams
          in that age braket during trainings, etc. Less questions that way.
          White teams also received strength & agility training this year, only offered to clubs white teams. Extra training sessions. Preferred practice days / times.

          I’m not complaining, being on white teams we are pretty happy.

          We know numerous families who are newer to the club or for whatever reason cannot make white
          and it’s by far a different story. Teams folding, players quitting, rec players filling in,
          lots of kids playing up just to field a team.

          My advice to you, if you are on white be happy and don’t complain.

          If you are offered anything but white with this club, I would run for the hills.

              The PBG program is a mess and its growth has been based on deceit and moral turpitude. They have not developed the players, they have taken the players away from other programs based on closed door deals and people filling their pockets. (see Damien and Adam) They have pillaged and ransacked the Jupiter program over the years and then joined forces with FCF who also did the same to Jupiter. The city has no idea of the shenanigans and the morally corrupt that have infested their area to take advantage of those economically privileged in the community. Those leading and involved with the program have criminal records and have been arrested for a variety of reasons. Its no secret, google names, request public records, etc. I would suggest to the PBG members to seek other opportunities or options voluntarily before it all comes crashing down and you will be forced to look elsewhere to salvage the season. Wellington is the perfect place. We offer similar opportunities and our DOC doesn't steal as much of the money. He may appear as if he is constantly constipated but PZ is the best of the best when it comes to taking, um i meant, making money. Bring those deep pockets over here ::

                We chose to leave and go to J Petrov Academy for next season.

                    I dunno, we played there this year and it was reasonably priced, the kids had a good time, and they learned a lot. Good coaches and good gropu of parents. Your experience was clearly different.

                      There has been much insinuation about criminal backgrounds with PBG but can’t find a lick of it on the web. Prove it by posting a link or else stop making false accusations!

                        I'm curious, do you have any real reasons for saying this or are you just the typical TS troll?

                        Would love to hear the advantages of being at Predators as opposed to be trained by Jelko. Close proximity does not count as an advantage....because if that's the reason then it tells me your not serious.

                        Are there just some superior trainer at Gardens or what?

                            ‘Kyle Gero, who has been an integral part of the Club since it’s infancy,
                            has accepted a role with a new indoor facility in Jupiter.’

                            Can someone please explain this?

                            What ‘indoor facility’ is this?

                            Kyle will not be with a club next year, just an ‘indoor facility’?
                            Don’t buy it.

                              I am so glad that someone alerted me that my full name is being used on a public forum that I choose to not be a part of. As a representative of youth soccer for Florida, I have no desire to continue having my name defamed by anyone associated with PBG Predators/Kicks. I did not post this and not do I care to have my name associated with this. There are only a select few who know my son is at Wellington to be trained because I am tired of the political retaliation, which is apparently continuing here from this post. Leave my name out of your mouth and posts, leave my son alone so he can continue to receive the fair growth opportunity that he has worked hard on his own merit to earn, and leave me alone to let me continue to help youth soccer being about the kids benefit.

                              Thank you,
                              The real Justin Goldman
