D3 college, right.

That’s cute how former FCV dad and Loudoun Dad play off each other.

Keep explaining to us how we should move to your club. What happens to the starters that get pushed down the roster. Where do they go? Like the other poster said, if no one should be satisfied as a sub, then the rosters should be around 13

No. If you are player 12-18 on any DA or ECNL team and can start on another one of those clubs you should do it. Not complicated.

You need someone to explain how? You contact the club.

Don’t worry, his kid will come and take our kids spot in her Junior year. Then and only then will we understand the awesomeness of being a bench player at FCV.

By then it’s EDP and a gym membership.

Alright you guys convinced me. I will update everyone tomorrow. Sending emails to all the ecnl coaches in the area. Maybe my DD can crack the starting line up somewhere since all the colleges she has been emailing aren’t responding because she isn’t starting 90% of the games.

Pretty sure FCV trains every night and BP wouldn’t be posting here now during training. Mikey on the other hand, he might be in the bushes on his phone typing and grunting.

Smart choice. She won’t make D1 coming off the bench at FCV. Never happens.

D1 Players by Class (excluding players not playing for FCV this time last year)

1 Darrian Burnett GK 2012 6 2019 Virginia Tech
46 Madeleine HayesD 2015 3 2019 William & Mary
50 Kristen Guiney D 2011 7 2019 West Point
9 Sydney Ash D 2013 5 2019 Virginia Tech
16 Kayleigh ShackfordM 2014 4 2019 William and Mary
17 Cassidy Brown D 2009 9 2019 Virginia Tech
23 Lauren Sproat M 2011 7 2019 Christopher Newport

24 Kassidy Borden D 2012 6 2020 Navy
99 Carrie McIntire F 2012 6 2020 Wake Forest
18 Kenna Zier M 2015 3 2020 William & Mary
20 Victoria Haugen D 2011 7 2020 Virginia Tech
2 Lauren Teuschl M 2018 1 2020 Pennsylvania
4 Alexis Theoret M 2010 8 2020 UVA
6 Ellis Wheeler F 2014 4 2020 Penn State
7 Nicole Sellers D 2010 8 2020 William & Mary
12 Victoria Powell F 2011 7 2020 Virginia Tech
10 Olivia Migli D 2012 6 2020 Duke

And why would you exclude players from the list? Are you doing that for the ECNL rosters too? This is a complete joke. You’re twisting yourself in knots to dispute what is right in front of your eyes. Go LOUDOUN!!!

Of course the roster looks great when you combine classes. Not the same back when these players were U14, U15. The benchwarmers on those teams are long gone.

That is the point. If you are not starting on the FCV U13, U14, U15 or U16 teams you won't make it to the roster above. You will be gone and your lack of minutes will leave you stranded.

One of the few in this thread who get it. That’s exactly the right point.

Actually, he probably has Gus or Marvin coaching for him while he interviews for his next gig. CZ would coach but he’s too busy helping Richie coach the Spirit.

In other FCV news, big parent meet and greet with the TSJ folks happening on June 8. They will offer them a “special membership, offer exclusive to TSJFCV families.” Hopefully, they give the parents a coupon and don’t make them pay the standard $20 for a soggy hamburger before they try to sell them a gym membership. Meanwhile, I hear Gus will be coaching the ‘05 DA team next year due to parental complaints about Le Pup. Of course he’ll also be coaching the non-DA 05/06 team and a couple older boys teams, and DCU futsal, and Puma Elite futsal. Not to mention his personal STBW training business. Dude is busy.

Must be exhausting to be this envious of everything and everyone.

The PP was laughing at you. The funniest part is you are so narcissistic that you don’t know the difference.

It is real simple. The soccer talent is getting less concentrated with each rising graduation year due to more and more “elite” options. In a very short period of time it will no longer be enough just to be on a FCV DA team. When it was just McLean and FCV being kid 15 still meant you were kid 30 all of NoVA. Going forward being kid 15 at FCV or ANY DA/ECNL club means you are now kid 100-120 in NoVA. This is the simple product of dilution.

So if your kid is a rising U13/14 and you’re kid is not a top 5 player or at least a starter on the team then you should be thinking about a future change where you can become a starter. DA has not yet separated itself as the elite league either to bail your career sub out either.

Top 5 player is a bit extreme. As long as title IX exists they’ll be plenty of money to throw at young people looking to play college ball. Being on FCV DA is an attractive option for the kids and parents choosing colleges based on soccer, whether you’re player 1 or player 18. Being on another area DA team or ECNL team is also attractive, but probably only if you start or play significant minutes. It boils down to the quality of the player mostly, with some factors such as coaching connections, and team success mixed in. The one thing to be wary about with FCV for the kids at 05 and younger is the coaching and club instability over the next few years. The older kids will be fine. The younger ones are at some risk, but will also likely be fine given their talent, their parent’s wealth, and the ability to switch to a different situation if needed thanks to the numerous options here in the metro area.

You must be a coach if you would say with a straight face that being a sub is better than being a starter. Because that is in fact what you are stating.
