When one is lied to, they expect an apology.
Rob Nasser lied to me, my wife, and my two teenage daughters and convinced us to move from Albuquerque, New Mexico for us to swim with Valor.
Because my daughter had suffered a long season the year before, out two months with pneumonia, we told coach Nasser that he would only make her swim 60% of the practices. We confirmed it six times. The night before practice started the Practice schedule said the girls had to practice 9 out of 9 times. We almost went though the ceiling.
Rob Nasser continued to poke at my family even up until the night that my daughter had her award banquet. She was the only freshman, no, only girl to qualify for all her events at state. He never thanked her, recognized her and did not give her the MVP.
HE THEN DENIED EVERYTHING. Rob Nasser is a first class chicken ###.
Rob Nasser is truly a life-sucking swim beast who also tried to lure us to Valor Christian High School with visits to our daughter before high school. He is not a fun coach and swears (curses) behind the kids back.
I did not know Valor Christian High School tolerated such behavior. Way to Go on whomever wrote the above comments. We agree, however, would not choose such language. By the way, our State Champion swimmer decided on Regis.
Too bad you are in such a very small minority. So many (my daughter included), have had amazing experiences with Rob and I would love to see the proof any of you have for this..?
I see I need to re-post what I did a long while back...
This has to be [protected].
Your daughter seems like a great kid from what I have seen of her and what I hear from other kids and parents. I can only hope that she is somehow able to steer clear of the anger you have in your heart for a situation that didn't work out the way that you had hoped. I hope that you can someday see just how this reflects poorly on you more than anyone. It's strikes me as petty and selfish and more sour grapes than anything else. As parents, we should hope to model behaviors that are better than what you're showing here.
I heard a rumor that you were a pastor at one time. I find that so very hard to believe that a man of God would post such a note. If you were/are a pastor, you should be ashamed of posting a note like this!
I don't know what was said or promised to anyone, but I know that Rob and Valor have done very well by my daughter, myself, and many others. No one is perfect, but I know that there was at least an effort to work with Nicole's attendance concerns. I would think that if there was a misunderstanding like you've described, that he would have tried to work it out. I recall hearing Rob say some nice things about Nicole at the banquet, while you weren't even there?
Something to understand about an MVP award. While Nicole had a great season and scored a large number of points for the team over the year, made state, etc. I would imagine that being an MVP is so much more than that. I have never heard of a freshman getting an award like that. MVP awards when I was in sports meant that not only were you scoring points for the team, but you were the "team glue" outside of the sport too. I honestly didn't see or hear about Nicole filling that kind of a role - In my own opinion.
I love Rob Nasser! He was one of the best coaches that I've ever had. I really enjoyed my time with him. Why do you have to be so negative? No one wants to hear your negativity I know a lot of people who like him.
I sincerely feel bad for Rob Nasser after reading this post. [protected] continues to be up to no good to this day. I will not post the details due to a child's privacy but [protected] is absolutely a predator of the worst kind who clearly will attempt to retaliate in any way against anyone who catches on to his lies.
I'd also like to thank those of you who posted information regarding [protected]. You are brave and without your posts we would never have known how dangerous of a person he truly is. It's awful that he stole from you and I hope he has paid his restitution. If not, please post, because someone needs to inform the authorities because he is once again up to no good.
All of the people here are involved her are in slander and gossip! I happened on to this by accident looking for a phone number for Valor. My daughter went to Valor for two years and we would all be ridiculous if we didn't think this kind of stuff don't happen with coaches. Maybe your kids weren't affected but others were -- that doesn't say one person is lying because your kids didn't experience a coach's negative behavior. You are also taking part in the very thing that you're telling Mr. Stockton to not do -- slandering! I don't know any of you people but I know first-hand that this happens. Hopefully everyone can follow the Word of God and pray, forgive, and close this chapter.
i personally loved my first year with rob. we gave him nicknames and he joked with us. he always encouraged us and pushed us to do our best. he was positive influence and the environment he created was fantastic. we worked so hard but it was so fun. he treated us like his own daughters and looked out for us. he was so supportive and a great coach overall. i’m not sure why you had the experience you did but personally i loved him.
