I’ll admit first My kid has never played for UFA. Long story short. A friend was shared this info from a coach. Why has this not been announced or shared to UFAs members? Seems like a very strange secret for a non profit group to keep? Maybe it’s none of their customers business - but given the millions of dollars spent by it’s customers seems this information would be relevant. Especially when it involves full time employees of the club. www.monzofc.com/Maybe this was the big announcement that never happened? Maybe it should have been announced. Or maybe everyone does in fact know about this and my coach and buddies were just out of touch. Either way - seems a little odd for this to be such a secret. Given all the issues in America with pay to play - makes ya wonder

Kudos to the founders for supporting soccer development in other countries! This is a great model for others to do the same by utilizing strong corporate parterships in the US and abroad. This is the true purpose of a foundation utilizing resources to do good in the world.
I hope others can do the same.

Apparently. Can you describe it without going into details that might have triggered the hammer?

Please describe your post... I seem to have missed some excitement. I understand the need for deletion of posts, but they should not simply “disappear”. There should be a placeholder that says “this message deleted for inappropriate content” or something similar

Whoever started this and keeps pushing it should be ashamed. Unless they have some information to suggest there is wrongdoing, why is this even here? Is it because the club is in Africa? If Iggy or Deo were involved with a club in England, would that poster be saying that they are doing something nefarious to UFA parents? Take your colonizer mentality and shove it.

There is no pushing or starting. Simple questions asked And given the sensitivity of youth soccer in this country - transparency and communication go a long way.
Some of the this is the problems with soccer in this country - there is no reason to invest in clubs outside of the mls.
I’m sure there are many positives for the ownership group and benefits to the youth game and grassroots level.
Amazing that people jump on people for asking legit questions.
And it’s irrelevant what country the team is in: American, English, Italian or African.
Maybe that is the answer - it’s none of our f***ing business.

I think everyone needs to go back to their respective corners.. I don't think it's appropriate to make innuendoes about who/what/when is going on with the leadership of UFA in another country. I think that is outside of our collective purview. However, I think it is fair for current club members of UFA to ask about how a non-profit entity may be funding a for-profit entity. Additionally, though, I think that is a question that should be directed at the leadership of UFA and not in this medium, since most on here are not stakeholders. Those of us that know how the two co-exist are aware and we're not raising any alarms. Take that for what it's worth and let's just leave it at that...

Given the SSA announcement - why hasn’t this been publicly shared besides in this forum?
Is it intended to be a secret? Seems like transparency here would be vital. Just saying UFA is bringing in over 3 million a year which apparently also just covers costs to run the club - but the reality is you have parents spending over $5000 for their kids to play at this club per year. Thousands and thousands of dollars spent over multiple seasons and multiple kids. Someone spin this as a positive please. And I don’t by it’s none of our business.

Parents are always wrong is the mantra. We left for greener pastures. Playing DA elsewhere.

Methinks parents and society are lazy. Methinks you have to connect the dots for the influential parents who are muted by putting their undeserving little ones on teams the do not belong. Me still thinks the wonder twins are s, sh, sha, shad, shady

Me still thinks the wonder twins are s, sh, sha, shad, shady 1) you have had good comments about things in the past, but it is becoming increasingly difficult to pay attention to you as the methinks statements and other probably purposeful grammatical errors are so distracting and irritating that I am having trouble weeding through it. 2) often people pay more attention to the people with whom they have the day to day interaction and care less about directors. This is similar to paying attention to state politics over national politics. Personally I care a lot more about my children's coaches than the directors.

Aside from the commentary on the juvenile speech style.. I'll gently reiterate what i posted earlier.
I certainly hope that you can back up these serious accusations.

Should be easy enough to verify (assuming the club's financials are documented). I dont think theres any accusations at this point. Pretty cool they've created a men's club team in their birth country (I assume that's where it is), so long as the funds werent take from a nonprofit to pay for it (i have no idea if UFA is a nonprofit).

Methinks you can "finagle" the numbers. Meknows $$$ for club, collected in cash is not listed in books. Methinks a real board would look at cash flow from maybe indoor Hispanic League. Meknows one half of wonder twins is bagman for $$$ from indoor and auxiliary camps/trainings/concessions on a weekly basis. Meknows bagman tells admin not to document cash. Meknows I can go on but like i said, customers/parents do not care

Again speak like an adult and then MAYBE one can start taking you seriously. Sounds like you have a personal issue with the twins, I will make sure to let them know what you said. That's what adults do, they ask questions, not just gossip with half information and spread rumors in an anonymous forum.
