| The Herndon - VDA pathway has provided VDA with numerous strong players. It was a great move by VDA and the as a contributing factor that led to the ruin of multiple Virginia Union, Fairfax Brave, and FVU boys teams. |

i We went to a practice last week and there were four teams on one field: two older teams on one sode (@40 kids) and two younger teams on the other side. Is that normal? It was cramped. |

| Yes that is called club night. They do that one night a week. |

No that is how most teams practice every night. My kid played through U19 and even the older teams are sharing fields. The younger teams get it worse - most times, each age group only gets 1/4 or 1/3 field to practice on. |

My son was doing a trial practice with a team and they had 1/4 of the field, another younger team had 1/4 of the field, and two older kids teams (maybe u16?) had the other half. 1/4 of a field for the older teams doesn't seem reasonable. Is that the norm? |

At another club and that is the norm. Sometimes even less. We are lucky for the day that we get a 1/3. |

| Herndon is a good, competitive club that specializes in developing players and sending them to the next level. (ex. ECNL-RL to ECNL) They should focus on building a strong alliance that is convenient so their players will improve there. |

| Does anyone have info on the supposed national pathway closer to home that they apparently mentioned in a message to current families? |

| Non sense. Herndon, Sterling and Great Falls will merge in the fall. |

Hmm.. will NVA become an actual alliance again? With Sterling? I see Loudoun is trying to expand into Sterling with its Loudoun East... |

| What a cheap cop out to join FVU. Lazy decision making by the TD. No one from Herndon is making FVU to compete with 5+ clubs. Dumb. Sticking the girls in ECNL RL or GA would have been the smarter move. |

The girls can't handle ECNL RL or GA they are 3rd division NCSL at best. |

| Why even join FVU then? |
