Re: Boycott OC Dynasty Tournaments and Friendlies
I Can't beleive you would post such a lie!!!!!!!!Coach you were told you would have your money within 30 days and you will with no problem.We the OC Dynasty Organization don't need YOUR money!! We are well funded. In Case you don't know are coaches and players in our organization raise money and give back to our community last year we paid for 120 kids to play for free in our recreation league.We also give clinics to our local girls in rec ball.This year our goal is to sponser 150 girls @ $120 a kid.What do you do?????????? We ( OC Dynasty ) Are a great organization. We are great to our community and we are a very competative organization so we would really appreciate you not throwing our name thru the mud Especially when it comes to less fortunate kids!!!!!!!!!!!If Ther is a Problem Please contact me (Jay Parra ) One of the heads of the organization.(714)394-4612
Jay, you should run for some political office! Not only are you championing causes of the needy, but you also have mastered the art of mis-direction. No one is questioning the OC Dynasty and what they do for the community. I will stand here and now to applaud that.
However, the issue is communication of how the monies would be returned to the winning team and when...issues which WERE NOT explained in any handout or posting on the internet (at least up to and including this forementioned tournament). No team is a profit center and the money is always needed for something. The correct proceedure should be that the prize money for winning the tournament (or any tournament) should be immediately given out following the event. There is absolutely no reason why it couldn't be done. All team fees are collected well in advance. Aren't the umpires paid in cash daily for their games? Why not the winning squad, and for your protection, have them sign a voucher indicating payment received. Done deal... it's simple!
When someone representing your organization makes a statement they will be doing something and doesn't fulfill that commitment, doesn't that reflect upon the whole organization? Perhaps the analogy might be, "we stole these lollypops from the store", but hey, we gave them to all these kids over here...aren't we good really? Finally, you say "you don't need the money"...Fine...pay up and shut up.
