You must be living under a rock with the Wikipedia parent. It’s not the first time he’s been the coach for the 13’s. They love him. I’d put a fork in it or better yet, maybe get some therapy for your anger issues. |
I love how they only reference the 2025-26 season/coaches on the website and have scrapped any reference to 2024-25. A season to remember! |

This is soccer. You will always find players leaving and others coming or sometimes while teams getting rebuilt even in the pro world (Man Utd, Barca, even Man city-next year releasing a whole bunch). Most importantly is if the coach is good, he will rebuild the team. If you look around, even other ECNL teams have 6-7 players leaving or getting cut. Surely, some top players may leave but there is enough talent in the area to refill their positions. Everything will be fine. |
this is the way. Sucks when it happens but it comes with the decision made by NVA. Its all about MLSN anyways. The NVA GA teams will survive. Has to be a bittersweet moment for the coaches. Mixture of being proud and sad at the kids trajectories. |
I think NVA GA teams still have enough quality to dominate GA. And if they make the champions cup then it the same outcome as ECNL playoffs. So everyone will be fine. Not sure why is everyone is pessimistic because NVA switched the GA. After all not too many ECNL teams in the area unless families are willing to go to Richmond and NC. |
Why do you think that? They weren't great to start with. They are bleeding some of their better talent. They won't be in Champions Cup next year as they have to earn their way in. |
GA in mid Atlantic does not require a top team to go up on the standings. If SYC can do it, NVA can do better. |
U18/19s: SYC 11th place U17s: SYC 8th place U16s: SYC 12th place U15s: SYC 10th place U14s: SYC 2nd place U13s: SYC 1st place With the resume, SYC isn't getting into Champions Cup anytime soon. And neither will NVA. |
Well, looks like the 2011s and the 2012s can |
Primary path to Champions Cup is for the Club to be successful top to bottom of the age groups, not just a few. Maybe those specific teams get in as a wildcard, but that's not a guarantee. |
glad you mentioned syc 2010 boys team sucks avoid them |
why are you so obsessed with this particular age group? |
Sorry, that's not how they do it anymore. |
NVa parents assume their teams can compete in GA because they e been told that it's a weaker league. . Instead they will find that knocking over a player to tackle the ball doesn't work when a ref calls a foul on them and they loose because of the free kick. This is actually why GA is a better league |
