Interesting. They must not rely on gym space from Fairfax County-the county only allocates community rec leagues gym space for one hour practice and one hour on weekends for a game per team.

+1. We barely get enough space for our rec teams to get one practice a week from the county. FCC must have its own gym allotment.

How does FCC have the gym space? The number of gyms per kid is the same as Fairfax county- do they just tell other teams and leagues no?

they might get exclusive use of FCC schools gym space and FCC community center gym space, and it might be more gym space than they would get under the Fairfax County formula for the non-segregated/rich parts of the county.

I know in FCYBL, Falls Church teams always had "home" games in Falls Church, and no other Fairfax County team got "home" games scheduled like that.

Fairfax county's crunch is because futsal teams and volleyball teams also use their gyms. Does FCC just give them to basketball teams exclusively ?

Weeknight games are in the rec center. My kids played for years.

I think FCC is just basketball. I have a bunch of kids playing- it does seem like FCC basketball has the gym at Oak Street, the Community Center, Mary Ellen Henderson for their exclusive use all weekday evenings and all day Saturday. They also appear to have pretty constant access to a couple of Fairfax elementary school gyms- Timberlane and Shrevewood and sometimes Pine Springs.

There is a parent who hasn’t coached before who wants their kid to play fcybl. So they are coaching our zip code fcybl team. It seems like I can pay more money and drive all over nova for games to have an inexperienced parent coach, or I can play Rec and have all games at super close by gyms. Dc is very angry with me that I wouldn’t let them try out for fcybl. I don’t understand the appeal.


If the player is talented, the rec team isn't challenging enough, if they want to improve their ability.

Somes kids play both FCYBL and rec. Best player on DD's team last year did both.

Most leagues won't let you play both for the same league. Like if you are on the CYA travel team, you have to play BRYC rec.

That only matters if the league cares. Post covid, they do not


Hoping coach for this upcoming season can confirm whether FCYBL actually requiring teams to submit zip code info for players (SIS, utility bills etc)? Pre-covid it was key part of team registration to help enforce zip code restrictions. At this point, there's no reason they're not back to that requirement. Otherwise, more and more teams will ignore and see what they can get away with....

Don’t know if they enforce at league level but at my kid’s tryouts they were def noting it and limiting it to two
