| Yes, to 7:21, by age 12 you have to be on a first team. Again see the Arlington thread to understand why. The difference over time is real. And cumulative. |
| I second the comment about Vienna. There are a several girls in the Phoenix program dual rostered and we have had girls move up to FVU every year. It's only a few but it does happen. |
Is that only Vienna? Seems like a benefit of having MV run FVU since he is a director at Vienna. |
Yeah and then they all get cut the next year. None last longer than a year. |
| BRYC has had a player dual rostered for FVU but agree that on girls' side it's going to skew VYS on the opportunities. |
| BRYC has had a player dual rostered for FVU but agree that on girls' side it's going to skew VYS on the opportunities. The playing styles at both feeder clubs is very different, and FVU plays the VYS way. |
| Curious what is the VYS way? |
| The BRYC style of play is to kick the ball without pace to the other team’s feet the moment you get it, and to decide never to run, or, if you run, run hard in a meaningless direction. All while being yelled at by Coach Paula, who couldn’t win a game if you spotted her 7 goals and gave the other team a Pug goal. It’s like telling Helen Keller to drive through Times Square. If BRYC is a feeder team to FVU, FVU must be starving. |
| FVU is just a brave 2.0. Can evaporate at any moment. Not a legit ECNL club. |
FVU is just Brave rebranded. You remember right when it was BRYC and Vienna, the worst ECNL team in the MA. Now they've partnered with 6 other clubs that won't provide them anything, in hopes of staying alive. |
They are doing fine. Look at their U13 team now; it’s ranked #1 in MA. |
Credit to CW, the only survivor in that train wreck. Wait until MV puts his magic hands on that 2013 team LOL. |
That same team has been at or near the top of the AG for many years and an outlier. |
| Their U13 team was wholesale imported from McLean. It will break up at U15 because FVU does not care about college. MV can barely tie his own shoes let alone care about a girl’s future. |
So the team you have to point to with FVU is a team that everyone knows came from Mclean?? How many players on that team actually came from Brave (BRYC or Vienna) or any of the 6 feeder clubs in FVU?!?! FVU can last only for so long with their draw being that they play ECNL. All the girls will eventually realize that FVU will not help them get recruited when the time comes. |
