| VDA parent, why does FVU live rent free in your head?You support and encourage your kid, and let us do ours. |
Goal differential is the second tie breaker after head to head, so not really that relevant. The focus in on points, and FVU only got 3 at CSA and 7 at Charlotte Ind. CSA is stout, but the Charlotte Ind results aren't good as Charlotte Ind is probably the 10th best club in the MA. FVU did have a good opening weekend, but they've now played 3 of the bottom 5 clubs, so they are probably a little behind where they should be given who they've played. |
FVU parent is big mad. |
Can’t just blame the GKs when 4 and 5 goals are being allowed. |
First camp of note for the youngest age possible that just happened last week for the beginning of the U15 cycle in Georgia. Anything before that were simply IDs and camp invites. All those girls can play but only 22 girls were invited last week, 21- 2010s and 1- 2011, none were from Virginia nor Maryland, not even that many East coast girls selected so everyone take a breath. FVU is not a national program. |

CORRECTION 23 of 24 are 2010s one 2011 who also played with USYNT at CONCACAF Championship in August with u15s which was almost all 2009s then. She can play! |
But what about all those social media posts from local teams boasting about their USYNT ID players? Are you telling me that is just club marketing and these players aren't going pro soon? |
Any parent who has been at this for longer than a day knows talent ID events are meaningless. Club coaches give them out to their favorites to keep them from leaving or to attract new players. |
Logic is hard to come by when ego's are being fed. |
So are we saying these kids that get invited aren’t good and just marketing tools used by the club? |
Mixed bag. |
| Curious to see how 2011 in the DMV do this year with the invites. Assuming a few if not more from FVU with combined talents |
| With Arlington, i'm sure it will be fruitful, but does it matter? For 2010s it went from 80 2-3 times (not same 80 each time) at u14 to 24 at u15 is pretty telling about who is on the track and who isnt for this highest level at the youngest relevant age. |
For 2011 training center Bethesda, Arlington, VDA 2011 all have 4. VDA 2010 has 1. NVA 2011 has 3. |
FVU 2011 has 1. |
