This has been going on for years. Games always start late and the quality of referees have led to many player injuries, including women.

My team has been in NYC Soccer Collective the past 6 seasons or so, a bit more than 2 years. I…read morehave played in a variety of rec coed leagues around the city, and it fits the best for me. The good: I play in the coed rec league, so we play on any weeknights during the week, and almost always at Chinatown's Nike Field. This is good for me and my schedule, I don't want a game EVERY Tuesday night or whatever, and the field is the best size for small-sided coed. - The refs are a bit hands off, but I think they are smart - they aren't like some of the wackos who think they are reffing the World Cup. If there are any scuffles, hard tackles, they remind players of the casual nature of the league. - The teams are slightly more competitive than some of the beginner leagues, but not out of control. - The league is very good about almost always getting the games in - I can't remember a forfeit. Its not perfect - some of the annoying things include: - It always takes a few weeks between sessions/seasons to get the schedule up. Similarly, it takes a game or two to get your league shirts. - There is often one (and usually just) game a season that gets rescheduled for dumb reasons, like not knowing the field was going to get resodded, etc. - Sometimes the divisions can be unbalanced. Our team is pretty middling, so about 2 times a season we get creamed by hyper competitive, steroid infused college player squads. Finally, while I understand some reviewers (one reviewer) frustration with the league owner - it can be frustrating - for the most part she is responsive, she cares, and works really hard to be accommodating.

While I'm sure that this is a great club, especially during the school year, I have found that…read moreduring the summer, joining this club is a waste of time and money. To give some background, I'm a sabre fencer and have been fencing for four years and thought that before fencing at the college level, I would like to train this summer. I did not get the opportunity to do so for long: June was great! There were classes almost everyday so I got to train my heart out, however as soon as July began the group classes ended and I had an insanely difficult time with contacting the coaches for private lessons. One of the two coaches was out of the country, which is understandable, but the other coach would not respond to my emails to allow me to schedule lessons! I am incredibly disappointed with my experience with this club. Perhaps it is better during the school year, but should anyone be in the city during the summer, I would suggest that they try to train elsewhere.

I also feel confident that the school is ran by a reputable professional soccer player, Felix Abramovich, who is respected and known in the soccer community. That is actually how I found out about this school. If you want your kids to learn the art of soccer, stay fit and have fun, this is the best school in Brooklyn and prob in the tristate area.

Instead of accepting defeat respectfully, he tries to exploit loopholes and fabricate rules that don't exist within the league. He previously obtained a forfeit win against another team using similar tactics, and after losing 7-0 to us, he again attempted to lie about our roster numbers to force another forfeit. Given how blatantly he is willing to lie and cheat to gain an advantage, I would seriously second-guess sending my child to a program led by someone who displays this kind of behavior. It reflects very poorly on the integrity of the team and the spirit of the game.

I stopped playing for a long time and then came back to it with with Frank at Soccer Beyond. It was perfect for me as I had some foundation for playing but was extremely rusty. With Frank, you get to play lots and also scrimmage a lot. You work a lot on foundations, passing and dribbling skills that are designed to help you develop those skills. Even if you are advanced, there's a benefit. And you are a beginner, this is perfect as these are the type of drills you do as a kid. For someone who's more advanced and may say "why would I need to do that?" the answer is that even the pros still do the same exact drills. An as for beginners who might be put of by the previous reviewer's comment that "many of the drills seem to advanced for the absolute beginners" the truth is that this is exactly what we did as kids in school. Exactly. You'll get better just by coming often and working at it. (and get your own ball too) The group of people are also really cool and they generally come back again and again. And Frank is a really good coach and a very nice guy. To get this kind of instruction is really difficult. There's another guy in brooklyn that runs something similar and while I like him, he is simply no where near as good or as qualified as Frank is.

It's true that drills can be a little dull, but Coach Frank chooses them well, changes them often, and my touch has benefited. The sessions are welcoming and cordial. Many people return week after week. Skill level is skewed towards the beginner.
