ECNL Soccer teams in VA--practice locations?

[Anonymous]

Hello--Our daughter is interested in trying out for an ECNL soccer team in VA this spring. She'll be U11 in the fall. Where do Arlington, McLean, and Great Falls practice?

Thanks!

Arlington and McLean (via Fairfax Virginia Union now) both have ECNL programs. Great Falls has ECNL-RL and practices at Nike Park (Route 7) and Lake Fairfax.

ECNL starts at u13. Pre-ECNL is u12. At her age, she just needs to make a top team to be lined up. Tryout several places.

Thank you both!! I'm trying to figure out logistics and what is feasible for us commute wise for these teams. Anyone know where Arlington and McLean/Fairfax Virginia Union practice?

As someone mentioned, they don't become Fairfax Union until U13, so you would start at one of the 3. You don't have to be part of the member clubs to try out once they get to U13 though.

Mclean practices at Lewinsville Park, Spring Hill Rec Center, and Holladay fields.

BRYC is Woodson and Robinson high schools.

VYS spreads out a bit, not sure exact locations, but Ken Lawrence Field in Tysons and Luther Jackson Middle School are two.

Arlington is Williamsburg Middle school, Long Bridge Park with multiple other smaller locations I'm not exactly sure of.

And Gunston MS. Also, Greenbriar/WL (when HS fields are available).

Great falls isn't part of nva anymore. they may end up with FVU again.

Great Falls had (and continues to have) ECNL-RL prior to the short-lived NVA "relationship"
