These coaches have no business coaching kids. And if you’re wondering if my kid was one told to “leave, just go”, no. My kid was invited back but after seeing that and also having some very questionable things said to her by the coaches during the session, she will absolutely not be going back again.

i hope this is a lie. Pretty sad if not

This just did not happen. Sorry. Not the way it works.

2011G toxicity is well known. Great team, difficult crowd of players and parents.

Arlington 2011s like if they won the ECNL finals. lol. Too much glazing. Wake me up when they beat San Diego surf 🥱

I hope these Arlington mean girls are just not a bunch of air heads focusing too much on a ball inflated with air. They need to know that if they don’t cut it academically, some mean boss one day will boss them around while they are working some lame 9-5 job.

Half witted soccer parents but generally accomplished and well read professionals. Their kids are gonna be just fine.


Agreed otherwise- beat somebody relevant in Richmond this summer then come talk.

What are “some very questionable things” said to her during the session?

Will not share as that would identify her to the coaches.

I posted about what my DD experienced and witnessed at the ID session - particularly from the coaches - for other’s sake. I don’t condone the name calling of dads or other girls on this forum. Isn’t necessary. Just saying so my post isn’t conflated with those going after the dads or others at Arlington.

Arlington Dads need to go find a decent job so they can afford their kids tuition instead of fighting over in a kids team trying to find someone to pay for college. Lame

Stop. I've watched more than one match and the "strategy" is to boot it long to the right wing and hope she could out run the girl marking her and corral the ball.

In case you were wondering, she could not effectively do either. And yes, this is an ECNL team.

Lol, depends on the right wing!

The one some guy was bragging about yesterday, probably his kid, and how skills could be developed (they clearly haven't been) but speed can't (other girls are just as fast now).



One super fast and the other super slow. You decide

The fanatic haters at every club have the same thing in common. They have some sort of parent issues, their player has issues, or both do. The problem is they can’t read the room and blame everyone and everything else.

The rest of us on the sidelines know who they are but they don’t care to change.

Keep on hatin’ and keep on being miserable!

I agree with the comment on the 11's. seems like the only good age group in the club. The rest are ranked in the 50's and beyond. Probably kids leaving at the older age groups for the more successful ecnl clubs (top to bottom). My daughter was in the same situation (one good age group in a bottom feeder club). If she can make a team at the better club I would switch. Odds are the coaches and directors are using this age group as biat to either hold players or bring in players but either way, their level of play is most likely not due to good coaching.

yep, just checked the standings in each age group and have probably nailed it. 11's are the one loaded age group, and doing well, so all the parents are riding the wagon of "we're taking over as best club in the state." When in reality it looks like all the best players go play for VDA in the older age groups and seem to dominate the conference. This is actually pretty common throughout the other conferences as well. You're better off leaving now. Plus, odds are you'll end up getting waxed by Eclipse in the playoffs and then you'll really see how far off the mark you are.
