12U Fans and Coaches,

Does anyone have a good email for the San Jose Sting 12U manager or coach?

[Iluvblue]

go to their website and get it. Be shocked if it wasnt on their site.
And if it is not, Im sure an email to Bob Perales will get you what you want:)

[norcaldude]

12u coaches I have received 10 polls back so far. I would appreciate it if I can get the rest back soon as possible.

Thanks

I have been reading all of the fans complaints about the rankings and everyone is entitled to there own opinion. Most fans are going to lean toward there own team and organizations, I have been in touch with SoCaldude who has been real successful with the rankings down south and I have gotten his formula on ranking. I will be sending out some information to all of the 12U coaches and will be give them a week to give me there input. I truly believe that all of our NorCal coaches will give there honest input. They are the ones on the field every weekend and see things fans don't see. If I receive all input I am hoping to have the ranking up by next Friday. I wish all of the NorCal teams a great season!!!!!!!!

If you are a coach and have not received my email please email me at norcaldude1@gmail.com and I will get it to you ASAP.

I look forward to the results of your coaches poll! My feelings are they will look alot like the ones I have posted. The fan complaints you mentioned are posted by parents/coaches that feel their team should be ranked higher than I see them. I watch games of all age groups and I feel I have the experience to know the better teams. I haven't seen your team (Elite) play yet but I hope to see them around.

For sure. Any predictions on who will be in the semi-finals? Finals?

What does the coaches poll show? Might be a good way to test its predictive powers.
