Its really unfortunate that people here can't read a press release properly and have literally gone and made a heap of s$$t up.

The press release states that its a strategic partnership to work together on continuing facility Improvements and likely some sharing of the facilities (lakes have a 2 million dollar facility redevelopment that is not far away from beginning and 500k in the bank for raising the pitch), in return the jets will share their coaching knowledge and expertise - maybe coaches will go sit in on a session or they will share session plans and education or something.

It has absolutely nothing to do with the local competition and the players (or youth players) in it.

so instead of taking the time to read something and maybe ask the club some actual proper questions, people have decided to get on some conspiracy theory world is flat train wreck and bag the club out instead.

I cannot facepalm this chain of commentary enough.
