| Let's not create ridiculous rumors because of the result of one weekend's worth of play. |
06/07 game was much more lopsided than the score showed. |
No it wasnt. NVA had numerous shots on goal and looked like the better team in the second half. VDA is a great team and they could have scored more. Game could have easily gone a few different directions. Thats soccer! On to the next |
The NVA goalie kept that game close. She had 7 or 8 really good saves. NVA had a few good chances and should have scored once or twice. Game could've easily been 6-2 VDA. |
| Not a good weekend against a bad Richmond club. |
The Richmond 09s are strong team. |
That goalie (NVA) keeps just about every game close. My DD has played against her a few times and says she is the best GK she has faced. |
Richmond is a good club. |
Not really. They barely qualified for playoffs and then wished they didn't after going 1-2 in Seattle. |
My DD was playing on the other field at the same time but that game looked ugly for NVA. |
|
So, what is up with NVA? Off year? Coaching? Player turnover to other DMV clubs?
Results: 12 0-0 11 0-1 10 1-4 09 0-4 08 1-1 06 3-1 To say RU isn't a strong club is a bit disingenuous. Their 08 and 09 group has had some success. 09s made it out of the round of 16 two straight years and to the final 4 in 2023. Went 1-1-1 last year in playoffs. |
NVA currently has 1 team on track to make it to playoffs, the 2012s. |
Hit the nail on the head.....coaching. |
| 09s going from tied for best ECNL record to not making Playoffs under Coach ____. Gained one player, lost one player from last year but different coach… |
Former coach played former team this past weekend... My DD plays for another age group at NVA, and I know the 2009s have dealt with injuries this year. Not all can be blamed on PL but I think they are underachieving compared to the talent level on the team. They also probably overachieved last year. |
