Don’t laugh, their teams are patented. |
They are all like this. Just have to learn to navigate and move around if you don’t like a coach or program. |
Likely leaving McLean here as well. Have been unhappy with coaching, development and competition on the boys side. Going to check out Arlington like others. |
Commute from McLean to Arlington is not that bad, but Arlington to McLean during rush hour can be 45+ minutes. |
Depends on where you live. We live in 22207 and it takes us 10 mins to get to Lewinsville Park where our MYS player trains. It takes us 25-30 to get to Highlands or Long bridge. |
That’s not bad either way. Nice spot to be for this. |
OP here: The above is true. We'd only consider making a move to go to MYS Green which I understand is ECNL-RL, correct? Are there spots still available? |
McLean is not doing ECNL nor ECNL-R next year. |
Why do you keep saying this? |
Yes MYS Green would be their ECNL-RL team. Believe they are currently holding tryouts but would check the website as well as email the current coach. |
Not true. |
Isn't the arrangement the same as last time? VA Union played in ECNL, McLean played in RL. Brave/Union are going to play in ECNL, MCLean are going to play in ECNL-RL, no? Don't they have the same arrangement? |
Last tryout was Thursday and there were plenty of strong players from all the clubs trying for MYS Green. The top players from Vienna and Arlington were there. CW will be the coach moving forward with DB leaving. |

Interesting. In ECNL-R girls, the 6 MYS green teams have a combined goal differential of -52, with not a single team having scored more goals than they’ve allowed this season. The boys’ ECNL-R teams have a negative 75 goal differential, but to be fair, almost all of that is from the youngest two teams (-63). Their 07s and 09s have very slightly positive GDs (+4 total). Meanwhile, Arlington girls’ ECRL has every team with positive goal differential, for +76 GD overall (+50 coming from their excellent 10s and 11s). The boys are +92, with none of their teams having negative GD. For Vienna, girls are +16, with most of that coming from the 10s and 11s. Boys are -95, with all teams having negative GD. I wouldn’t expect to see much movement, except maybe from Vienna boys to older age groups. If anything, the results would seem to indicate Arlington has recruited players away from MYS. |
