This is why no one trusts you or is sticking around.

The communication with the parents has not been good in regards to many topics.

Can't communicate what you don't know.

What do you mean? Adam claimed in the parent's meeting they had a surplus of turf fields.....

If they were going to leave then it’s better they did so now, when the FCV GA players still have the opportunity to go somewhere else for next season. And those players will be just fine, it’s the ones they’ll displace who aren’t so lucky.

So displace everyone? Other clubs won't take more than 3-4 for each team. And we're really only talking ECNL clubs anyway. So 2-3 other clubs.

The FCV coaches are who screwed the players. It's because they didn't believe they could control the process anymore. They never controlled the process and their success was largely due to their ability to get the DA league. Now that's gone, with no ability to develop players and no ability to steal players, they have nothing. All they really were doing was using the league DA and stealing players to form competitive teams. They were ruthless in that ability.

2-4 FCV GA players at each of VDA, NVA, Union, BSC, Arlington, and SYC, with the remainder at VRSC, may not be what those players were expecting a few months ago, but it also doesn’t leave them in a bad place relative to whatever their soccer goals were. The impact on the 2-4 players who are displaced at each of those teams is more concerning.

Are there any FCV players actually staying with FCV? I could see previous subs who would now become starters giving it a look. There may not be that many displacements at other clubs, and then those displaced could go take the open spots at FCV. It’s really just a shuffling across teams there’s a finite number of players at this level.

Why would anyone stay at / go to FCV when it’s completely unclear if they have coaches or fields? Whatever one thinks about VRSC as a club, how is total uncertainty at FCV a better option than VRSC with most of FCV’s current staff and fields?

It’s uncertain now but it’s still February. Plenty of uncertainty at other clubs too. We’ll know what’s happening with FCV and other clubs soon enough.

Call Fairfax and Loudoun County and ask for the assigned spring permits for this org.

Don't worry, he said he knows people in those offices.

If they are for-profit, it should be under the NCS rules basically impossible for them to get permits.

He tried to debunk that by saying that LCPR has already allocated the fields that FCV uses through the county and cannot pull back on them unless they're not growing in size. Sounds like FCV is in for a decrease in numbers soon, wonder what will happen.

It will be interesting to see the turnout for next week’s FCV’s ID sessions (and tonight’s and tomorrow’s at VRSC).

Turnout will be high from current players because they scheduled tryouts the same time as training.

Can’t see many outsiders attending. Not many have in the past.

Other clubs have general ideas about what fields they will have for practice because they've all had the same fields for years.

Soon enough would be prior to when players have to make decisions, which is imminently.

I can see quite a few outsiders showing up from a certain ECNL team which was just merged

Showing up to what? Don’t you need coaches to run an ID session?

Thanks Adam!

Or the GA coaching slate.

You MIGHT get a clue in April. That would be inline with the timeline TSJ put out.

They're HOPING to get an answer out in 30-60 days, but also could mean they have NOTHING in 30-60 days from early February.
