Will be interesting to watch this club next year. They improved this season. Still lost games --- but by slimmer margins almost across the board at every age. Good job to the players and coaches for improving this year. Adding a few talented players here or there can change a team.

OP posted facts. What’s the meaning of the sigh?

Yes, they did improve. Just a weird situation. Only girls DA. No real feeder club (GFR is only an admin relationship). No real marketing or web presence. No real press releases or change in name and ownership despite the cat being out of the bag. Feels like they will be transitioning again somewhere else in the next year. Maybe they can remain the "DA alternative" if your kid can't make FCV or Arlington and thinks DA is better than ECNL? Doesn't seem like a recipe for long-term success, but maybe they'll carve out a niche. For the players and parents already there, I hope it works out for them. I know a few and they are good kids and families.

Why is “couldn’t make FCV or Arlington” assumed? I know a few there who could/did but chose against those two.

Have you considered the thought that MU is a place for those who think the DA model is better and aren’t fans of the other two area options? Because I know that’s the truth in at least several cases.

Parent lie about offers.

I see it every season.

What value does it add to your DD if you are already rostered on a non-Metro team. If you are rostered on a Metro team for next year, then you've been part of the discussion and wouldn't be asking like this.

Maybe coaches from the affiliate clubs?

There aren’t any.

New coaches from out of state will be assigned. Players will have to report to an assigned coach.
Not sure why there is so much negativity re: MU

Spirit VA was a new club so it had initial issues attracting talent, things will drastically improve from here on out.
U14/U15 teams have drastically improved as the gals are getting used to how each other play.

Please stop the MU bashing.

We have newly formed teams in the area qualifying for the playoffs in their respective leagues. Why does MU get a pass? They need more than a year to click?

No. None of the MU people would ever lie about offers. That never happens.

Considering this is all anonymous, there is only one wrong person

I see parents every year lie and tell people they receive an offer from ___.

Well people and coaches talk and it is too easy to find out.

Also, MU will continue to be a doormat.

Much more likely the FCV TD would lie about practice locations and sign players without telling them about an impending buyout by a Springfield Gym.

Stop being an embarrasment to the DA in your posts here.

The more that the FCV parent goes off the rails here, the more I realize we made the right choice with MU.
