Then send the links with the records of the second teams on the boys' side. |

A PP said there's no point to being on the 2nd team at BSC.
The next poster said that a half dozen kids from the 2nd team just made the U12 DA. Unless you can disprove that, it seems like there's a reasonable reason to stick with the 2nd team. |
It really depends on the gender and year. I think a lot of talk of "no point" relates to the older years. There's been a lot of A/B shuffling this year in the boys YDP for 2010. Can't speak to the rest. |

BSC 2008 Boys B Team. NCSL Division 1 record:
http://www.ncsl-soccer.com/_element_display/#%2F80738%2Fteams%2F94351814%2F92760053-94352215%2FTEAM.html%3Fdummy%3D1559774138470 Again, if 6 or 7 of their plays are going to DA, there record should be much better. |
| People in this area are such suckers and will pay for anything. So ridiculous. |
So your compliant is that their 2008 B team played in the top division and finished 3rd overall this spring, ahead of several other clubs' A teams? Aren't you just proving the PP's point about the quality of the BSC boys teams? Also, given that you have twice now picked 2008 teams, I wonder if you are that negative BSC poster who is always posting disparaging stuff about the 2008 girls' teams? |
I see a 5-1-1 record with a +31 goal differential in what seems like the top NCSL division at that age. Seems pretty solid to me. |
Common now. NCSL is nothing to brag about. I picked 2008 cause the PP said that 6 or 7 of BSC U11 team is going to DA. Read. |
OK, negative Nancy. If you are going to stick with the 2008 boys, here is the link to the spring records of the top EDP division. https://www.edpsoccer.com/page/show/4792680-2019-spring-schedules Hmmmmm. One BSC team finished first with 6 wins, no losses, 2 ties and a +16 goal differential. Another BSC boys team finished in 4th with 6 wins, 1 loss, 1 tie and a +12 goal differential. Both teams finished better than Potomac Blue, SAC Blue, Pipeline Black, etc. |
You need a life. You sound crazy. - NP |
I think the original point was that Bethesda and Arlington second teams are better than most first teams. I don’t like either club, but this is indisputably on the boys side pre-DA. Most, not all. But certainly most. |
+1 these are 11 year olds! Your poor kids. You are SO that mom. |
Now that’s more like it!! But this isn’t BSC’s Boys’ B Team. Weren’t we talking about BSC’s B Teams being able to beat most other Clubs’ A Teams? |
There is nothing crazy about stating facts in response to statements that are factually tenuous. Why is this crazy? It is their top teams. What is really crazy is that this includes the 2009 team, playing a year up in the top EDP division and beating a lot of the top U11 teams in maryland. Same with 2009 Pipeline, which is playing in the same first division and one division above Pipeline’s top 2008 team. Obviously recruiting has something to do with this but you do not get even top players to do that well without teaching them how to play properly. |
Based on what I've seen in CCL Next Gen, I'd say this is true in terms of results if you substitute "equal to or better than" for "better than". But (1) those results aren't posted: and (2) it really is meaningless at the younger ages. The question was whether your kid will improve on a B (or lower) team at Bethesda, and for the boys side anyway, I think the answer is yes for most kids. As always, you should check out a team and practice in person before making any decisions. |
