Overall Experience with OYSA
The reviewers have mixed opinions about their experience with OYSA. While some have praised the instructors, others have had negative experiences with the organization's logistical issues and prioritization of profits over the love of the sport.
Logistical Issues
Some reviewers have reported issues with OYSA's management of games and facilities. For instance, one reviewer's game had to be postponed due to the lights not coming on, and another reviewer's game was cancelled mid-game due to the same issue. This has led to frustration among parents who have to invest time and money to have their children participate in OYSA's programs.
Instructor Quality
On the other hand, some reviewers have praised the quality of OYSA's instructors. One reviewer particularly mentioned Robin aka "Canelo" as an awesome human being and instructor.
Prioritization of Profits
Some reviewers have criticized OYSA for prioritizing profits over the love of the sport. One reviewer felt that the organization is more interested in making money than in encouraging a love for soccer among its participants. This has led to absurd rules and fine amounts, which has driven some families to consider alternative options.
