They have a normal coach now. However, a small group left for other teams (I think McLean got 2-3 players) and a few are playing up on the Metro 2008 team. There's no one left. |
Is this the club that put ECNL patches on their jersey and then yell "go Metro" before games? |
| Back to the play-ups with metro, eh? |
Who cares about Metro? They are 08s. This is an 09 Thread. Do we have any other good team in the DMV other than Loudoun? I wouldn't really count Pipeline inside DMV. Somebody posted that Bethesda tied Alexandria so I guess it's not them. That really leaves McLean and they played in our NCSL league which is pretty darn bad. We are thinking about going to Arlington next year but they are currently not as good as McLean. We like the coach at both. Wonder what results would look like between Loudoun, McLean, and Arlington. Hopefully we'll see before tryouts. |
The person was referring to 09 girls playing up to 08s. Everything changes at u13 so a team that might have been great at the younger age groups might not be as good at the older age groups. Why not go to a team that your dd will like and fit in. Maybe they're not that great, but your dd can be a leader on the team. Maybe she likes the girls on one team better than others. It's not just about winning. |
So you’re going to use wins and losses at 12 years old to determine where to put DD? |
| Yeah that is a bad approach...those who live by the W/L also die by the W/L |
| Parents should be concerned about learning new positions and playing on a bigger field, not wins and losses. Success with 9v9 does not guarantee success at 11v11. |
Wow you people are sensitive. I said we like both coaches. I'm not sure if DD will would make either team. There is nothing wrong with wanting to play on a winning team either. Usually, that means you are doing something right. Geesh, you people. |
Well 4 girls left the 2009 Arlington team for McLean. Also another 2009 Arlington player was moved to 2008 so I do not think that team is strong. IMO Loudoun #1 and McLean #2 |
McLean 2009 team is playing U13 this spring. |
You can join Metro they have great coaches only downside is you'll probably lose every game but that's not the point they will try to make your DD a better player. Again by losing every game this will help achieve her being a better player and sportsmanship |
Is Loudon Red the top team? They were beaten by Alexandria. |
This is not correct; 2 girls went to Mclean where their dad has been coaching the age group for years. |
Isn't CW old enough to be a Grand Dad? |
