Wow Hello Peter! I wish I was made aware of this page sooner. This is an incident that happened last year at Greenpoint facilities once after Mark, a managing coach and father to the kids was forced to transfer under accusations that is not my business to discuss. But I have the right to discuss an incident that happened in front of me to many times and when I brought it to their attention via text I was attached. I should have removed my son when the kind coach left cause since then the toxicity at that club became more revealed. Toxic coaching can leave scars on these kids and if coaches like Aziz aren’t educated on how to prevent an abusive environment this can give a bad representation of Fives Futbol. He has on a number of occasions made insinuated gestures to the young boys on the team when he greets them, “ where is your boy friend? / is that your boyfriend? The reaction of the kids was always shocking to me but of course he took no note. It’s one thing to poke fund an adult but there should be lines that you do not cross with kids. He would never say that to a man he just met or another man in passing. Not only did this leave a child hurt but it triggered what teasing he already deals with in school. After I brought this to his attention about the kids reaction and what his solution was. He not only dismissed the kids feelings but threatened to have them not let into the property, because of something HE did as a coach, nothing the adolescent did, as an innocent by standards. This entitlement is unacceptable under all circumstances especially when not being accountable of his own actions only escalates to confrontation, disrespect and abuse of authority. Do you know how humiliating that is at that age, while they go thru their own identity with todays issues? The child lost his mother a couple years ago and Aziz doesn’t take in consideration what kids in general have been through. He completely jeopardizes trust as an adult that they already have to face from peer pressure in schools. When I told Aziz the kids reaction he rep**** saying “HE should grow up”. Aziz feels being humorous thru disrespect is ok, when it’s bullying and patronizing. He should keep that humor with his own buddies. No kid should have to tolerate being belittle and have to figure out how to answer an adult the right way. I’m sure you wouldn’t appreciate another man speaking to you or your son like that. When we put our kids with these coaches we expect to build confidence and respect. A simple apology when I brought it to his attention in text would have been easy, but his irrational reply was the best way he felt it should be handled. He took no responsibility and was unprofessional on all levels. I would be doing a disservice to our values and raising mentally healthy kids by condoning his immaturity. He will not have to worry about seeing this family as he insinuated in the text but these matters need to be fixed and educated so other children do not have to be abused in that same matter. Coaches play a big role in the development of these kids especially the boys when sports is everything. If it doesn’t pertain to soccer than what do they have to say to a child you are l getting to know? It’s sad to find so many men here don’t see the value in that when they were young boys before too. But says a lot to who they are today. Adams team forced him to apologize as a representation on FiVes but he already told a parent he owes me nothing. He is right, it was never about me. And then Adam offered me a free t-shirt as compensation. A “free T-Shirt” What a great offer to represent a business that only cares about the money not just the physical but the mental development of each child. It’s been made clear to me Fives soccer morals and values are not established and that comes out when other coaches who represent the brand do not feel at fault making a child cry from inappropriate gestures. The irony is, an adult will say they care about children and there is no denying witnessing, a child’s innocence brings pure joy, but when the adult shows carelessness to their own actions in regards to what is said to a change child , it proves it’s not about the child , yet clearly about themself. Bottom line is we used out the rest of the term because of how much I paid which is over priced to get that treatment. But he intentionally made it uncomfortable to say the lease and gave my son no attention in training. The other soccer club we went to offered all around needs, actually unskilled my son and not mention more for my buck.

I recently tried to setup training for a group of my own team of U9 players. The Fives Futbol academy rudely asked me not to train my own kids as they have their own academy and it conflicts with them, sadly no proper consultation either just a bad attitude. They are unable to train my team at the time slot required and charge an exorbitant rate relative to the quality of coaching given. I don’t think they even have basic coaching licences. I’d love to know how this institution/academy helps to advance the skills of young talented football players. I would suggest the indoor sports arena at Brackenfell.

We attended the Fives Pinehurst today, it was a company event, some played padel and some played soccer. With it being a company game I was told to purchase water for everyone playing (not knowing the rules of the venue, as I have never been there, this was only the instruction that I was given). While taking the water out of my vehicle, a guy approached me, extremely abruptly, no respect at all, not an ounce of decency. Told me very rudely to put my water back in my car. Which I did, without reacting to his ugly manner. I went inside to purchase food and snacks for my 3 year old. When I came out the guys were taking water from my car, they did not know at this moment that it was not allowed. This same guy came up to me and again, extremely disrespectful told me to park my car outside, not on the premises. While pulling out, he was standing and watching me the entire time. The security even took a picture of my vehicle. This level of disrespect I have experienced from your club put a very bad taste in my mouth. Due to POPI, I am sure you know how ******** this is. The club itself is amazing, clean and organized, but when you have people who has absolutely no respect towards the next person, it gives your club a bad name. The rules states no dogs and no bringing your own food in, but there was someone with 2 dogs, braaing and carrying meat from their boot. Nothing was said. Should we call this ******? I have no idea. All I could recommend is teaching your staff to have respect and to treat people equally.

If you want a Five-A-Side experience, I'd strongly recommend Fives Futbol. Look, some areas of their service could use some work, for example, the Century City branch has ridiculously high prices, however it is made somewhat worth when dealing with someone like Derek who for years has had a trusted, friendly and honest service. If you're booking a game, make sure you speak to him, he'll make you feel more than welcome! All in all, if I could ask for one improvement it would be to have more consistent prices all round, as I could go to Bayside Fives and pay significantly less than Century City Fives for pretty much the same experience. OTherwise, I would strongly recommend them, no better five-a-side service in Cape Town.
