BRYC lost their best 04 forward to spirit. They’re losing several others in the age group too. After 03, BRYC is not looking too hot. McLean will always have an influx of players at U16/17. Loudoun seems to struggle across the board. |

BRYC 04 team is fine. Everyone is staying. A couple of parents were looking to leave until they realized their daughters enjoy playing HS. All the parents like Mikey and want to continue with him. |

Transition to 11v11 might be tougher than you think. Your goalie won’t be able to punt it to the other goalie. |

McLean and Bryc older teams (03 and above) were uneffected by the whole ECNL to DA exodus. Thats why they are successful. However, you must look at the current trend (04 and below) to see the true trajectory of a club. Hanging your hat on the old guard is short sighted. Larry Best is gone from BRYC. Clyde Watson may retire and leave McLean. Big shoes to fill. VDA 02 and above never took off for the girls. Their 03 group could have been decent but they lost talent when VDA left DA for ECNL. VDA 04 and below is what you should be watching to determine the trajectory. Loudoun will always have a FCV problem...unless ECNL wins out. |

Lots to think about for next year for everyone. You say 03 and above wasn't affected by DA/ECNL divide, but that VDA's 03s were because VDA left the DA for the ECNL? But VDA and Loudoun both have great 04 teams that are picking up talent next year and will be even stronger, so I guess I'm wondering if any of this is about DA and ECNL, or if it's more because people are unhappy with their current club experience and want something else? |

Trajectory means nothing in those leagues, best players will join the best clubs when recruiting comes into the equation, when you have college coaches at the side of the field and you’re team is winning 3 games a year things change. McLean and BRYC at the older age groups were run by the younger generation NM and BL at McLean MW and TM at BRYC this past year, both Clyde and Larry took younger teams. They did and will do well for years to come. FCV will be the top Club in Northern Virginia in my opinion. Awesome teams in every age group. Goodnight |
