Next Level Expectations

I'm sitting at work on a Friday afternoon, and a coworker asks me, "Do you want to watch hot girls…read morein lingerie play tackle football tonight?" ...I was offended he felt the need to ask. So, not knowing what to expect, we rolled down to the Citrus Bowl that night and became instant fans of the sport. Let's get that out of the way first. This is a real sport. More specifically, it's tackle football, coached by former NFL players/coaches, it has trades/free agency, and the girls are running real football plays with wide receivers shifting in motion and QB silent counts. One major difference between the LFL and standard football is the teams have to pass at least twice every set of downs to discourage teams from getting too run-happy. The end result is an exciting blend of beauty, brawn, bras, and panties. Our experience at the Citrus Bowl was fantastic. The stadium announcer did a good job of getting the crowd fired up, and they played a constant mix of Jock Jams to keep the party rolling at all times. My buddy and I were remarking that the music at the stadium was better than local radio. We heard songs like Get Ready For This, Whoomp There It Is, The Power, Welcome to the Jungle, Hip Hop Hooray, and Rock and Roll Part 2. Combine that with alcohol and sexy football, and it was good times! After the game, the Orlando Fantasy met with their fans to sign autographs and pose for pictures. The players were all down-to-earth, and that's just one of the many reasons why this sport is gaining in popularity. I'm not a fan of fantasy football, but I am a fan of Orlando Fantasy football. If you want to learn more about it, like the Facebook page for the LFL. You can also watch the games on MTV2 on Friday nights. It's nearing the end of the regular season now, which leads into the playoffs and ultimately the Lingerie Bowl which coincides with the Super Bowl.

The Cleveland Crush are indeed crushed by the Orlando Fantasy.

Before I write this review, I want to put this in perspective, my son was at this academy for two…read moreyears. He was on the top team of 2013 group what they called PRE-MLS-1. My review is therefore very comprehensive and fair which can be a good references for families want to join this academy. Ideasports academy is a stranged academy. Good aspect: Ideasports SA contracted with Disney to rent their facility. This facility is amazing and well taken care of. Soccer level for the top teams is fairly competitive in Florida areas. The number of Coach for the top teams (Pre-MLS) is acceptable. Bad aspect: The communication and management: is extremely terrible. The contract is costly and not clear, the league and tournament fees are not dependent on number of players in the team. Disney filed very strict contract in which you are responsible for many terms. Once you signed the contract, they locked you up. They do not release your kids to play for other teams if you do not pay up front full year tuition fee specifically with the leagues managed by Gotsport system. You must be very careful when you decided to sign the contract with them. Do not believe in the tryout as the actual team may be different from the ones your kids tried it out. In particular, you must be careful when your kids younger than 12 years old, in particular at 11 year old. The reason is from the fact that only one top team called pre-MLS-1 can participate in Florida Academy League which is the top and well organized league in Florida for this age. Team 2 in the pre-MLS program do not have a similar competitive level league. Many parents were disappointed and felt unfair for their kids with this management style. Miserably, they do not communicate with parents who are paying the service for their kids. Your kids maybe happy if you are in the top team or favored by the Coach. Coaches are favoring the kids who were staying there long, probably when this academy was established. It can be understandable as these families help academy to run the business. However, when soccer level and discipline are not the most important criteria for defining the team that may heart your feeling about the unfairness. Also, many parents sending the kids to soccer with the hope they can learn more than soccer (discipline, friendship, health, adaptation, etc.), you may not be happy with what you see in the practice everyday. Personally attack kid: I took my son out of this academy due to multiple times of attacking my kid every time I expressed my concern or suggestion to make this academy better. This is nonacceptable in particular in US. Lastly, the tuition fee is different case by case. Some kids (like us) pay double than other kids even in the same program. Therefore, you should be careful to negotiate to reduce cost before signing the contract. I will continue updating... Overall, this academy is not for every family. This is very strange and biased academy. Also, no guarantee that your kids will become professional or college players after the training courses. Trust is the most important and standard for the kid development. But you will not find the trust at this academy. In particular, you must be careful with the director coach if you do not want to get tricked like me. From perspective of parents who love soccer and kids. Thank you,

The coaches are outstanding--professional, knowledgeable, and genuinely committed to developing young athletes as well as adults. They create an environment that encourages teamwork, dedication, integrity, and a strong pursuit of excellence both in and out of the pool. Both of my children were previously part of another academy where, in my opinion, the focus was more on scoring points than on proper technique and athlete well-being. As many know, swimming is a full-body sport that requires correct form to be effective and safe. Coach J truly prioritizes technique and makes sure every swimmer performs each skill the right way. Joining KSA has been one of the best decisions I've made for my kids. They are happy, motivated, and feel like they are part of a supportive, welcoming family. I highly recommend KSA to anyone willing to work hard, stay disciplined, and be part of a positive and caring team. Come see the difference for yourself!

The wave pool was hands down the coolest feature. Watching those giant waves roll in was so much fun and unlike any other wave pool I've experienced. I could have spent hours just hanging out there.

Pro tip: get there right at opening if you want to snag a lounge chair. They go quickly, especially on busy days. Another perk? Disney provides as many towels as you need, which was a nice touch and one less thing to worry about packing. Overall, Typhoon Lagoon is a great way to cool off, relax, and have some Disney fun.
