Boys is not girls. Stop thinking of them as a collective. VDA had boys DA and girls ECNL. Arlingtpn had boys DA and nothing elite for the girls.

In order for consolidation to happen, not everyone can have a ECNL club. Understand? Arlington girls will go back to Mclean and have strong teams.

I understand but don’t agree. Why have 5 local ECNL boys clubs and only 4 girls. I think Arlington girls will get it. They could be competitive right now in ECNL. Have consolidation through players leaving FCV for one of the ECNL clubs.

With all due respect, its not happening. Mclean is a very well known club. Their name is recognized l Arlington kids have always been an important part of their success. Its their home for ECNL.

ECNL board knows this. It's time for you to recognize this as well.

Clearly someone has a vested interest in McLean to keep brining up a partnership from 5 years ago. We all know McLean can’t compete without the Arlington pipeline, but accept the fact that Arlington doesn’t need McLean - they’ll be fine on their own. OTH, McLean’s younger teams have not been competitive for several years. Maybe they should spend time developing players instead of trying to recruit Arlington kids.


BTW, Arlington, much like Loudoun, are the beneficiary of large rec programs that feed travel programs. Arlington is not known for development. Relax


This may have been true in the past. The coaching slate now for both boys and girls is very strong.

But they aren’t. In fact kids from other clubs (e.g. McLean) are coming to Arlington. The boys and girls side at that club are much stronger than the neighboring clubs.

U9-U13 won't leave. EVER. They leave at U14. The didnt leave this ysar because they're giving GA a chance...but that will come to an end and the flow of talent will start again. Once that happens, it's over. Arlington will go back to be known as a "little kid club" much like Loudoun has been for years due to its proximity to FCV.

Nobody left any clubs this year because of Covid as well

Nobody left because they want to see how GA will play out. Its not going to play out well and consolidation will happen. Which is needed anyways.
