Message to the Members of Placer United Soccer Club

Posted On September 1, 2012 by PUSC

With the Labor Day weekend upon us, our kids back in school, and older boys on break from Club soccer to represent their high schools, I know most members are not waiting on the edge of their seats for another communication from the Club about non-soccer items.  Trust me, I get it.

However, we have had several members request disclosure of the minutes from the July Board meetings so they better understand some of the recent club challenges.  Out of respect for those requests, the minutes of the July 17th and July 23rd Board meetings that were approved last night in a Special Closed Meeting have now been posted to the website and can be accessed at this link: Board Minutes

At this same meeting last night, as you might guess by the fact that I am communicating to you as the new Board Chair, we reorganized the Club officers as found here. The Board leadership is committed to moving the Club forward and to being the most competitive club working to produce the most talented soccer players in Northern California.

I believe my mandate is to represent the vast, silent majority of members in this Club who care less about soccer politics and just want the best competitive soccer experience for their kids who play for a Club that aspires to be the number one soccer program in the region. I hope this is the last email I have to send about these side issues and that we’re ready to move forward again.

It is an honor that the Board selected me for this position. I assure you I will never forget that no one brings their kids to Placer United Soccer Club because of who is on the Board or is the appointed Board Chair. We are about our DOCs, our coaching staff, our training programs, our facilities, and our complete soccer environment.

If you ever have questions, comments or concerns that you think I can address, please email me at jeff@flintfamily.com or call me at (916) 320-9574.  I will respond as quickly and best as I can, though I will likely refer you back to your coach, or to one of the Directors of Coaching, if your question is soccer-related.

Thanks for being a part of our Club. Go Placer!

Jeff Flint
Board Chair
