So comparing your daughter to other 08 girls is what's important to you. Sounds good.

"You know, I love you honey, but that fpyc team is a lot better than yours. And that bryc team is incredible. Also, Arlington, Alexandria, and Bethesda. Oh and these other 12 teams. I care about you so much I do research and learn about other girls."

Instead of wasting your time on this, maybe go kick the ball around with her, or listen to her talk about whatever, or do your job so you can keep providing. Just do anything else please,

Sadly, most of these parents - especially on the girls side - have little to no actual interest in soccer, they’re just uber-competitive and want their DD to kick other kids butts in something and to be labeled as Elite in that discipline, be it soccer, lax, etc...really anything will do.

and yet here you are.

It makes you look...much like driving by a car wreck on the highway. It's absolutely awful, but you are drawn into to see for yourself.

I'd like to see each 08s 40 time, please. Oh and indicate if they are pre-growth spurt, mid, or post.

Thanks.

Definitely an Arlington tryout. (Just kidding.). We should start a thread that provides mock tryout evaluation criteria for each of the larger area clubs. All in good fun of course.

How tall are you? (every club). How far can you boot the ball? (Loudoun). Do you respond well to cursing and insults? (McLean and FCV). Yelling? (Great Falls Reston). Are you good with a coach to player ratio that is on par with Brigham Young’s father to child ratio? (BRYC).

How much are your parents willing to pay for extra summer camps, weekly supplemental clinics offered by the club, speed and agility, tournaments with hotel/flights, and international trips (every club that offers those options)

Spain every year, baby. 20-day trip in some local tournament with Spanish rec teams that still beat us handily.
