how are you so sure soccer will be at St.James and not stay out in Loudoun?

I don’t think OP is sure of anything? Asking what soccer is like there and the answer might be- might be a different club using the facilities next year.

But I agree- it is a nice place.

Does anyone know which teams practice out of the St. James? That is what I am asking

If looking for DA, it is in Loudoun.

STJ has some U12 teams and younger.

They currently only have a full 08/09 Boys team. There are some 06/07 kids training there but their "full" FCV teams practice in Loudon. I am sure StJ is trying to grow their Fairfax player footprint.

I think they have done "clinics" for other teams but I am pretty sure only StJ soccer teams practice there.

We are going to look at their futsal squad for the Winter NCSL league - looks like Gus Donolo leads their academy with five other coaches.

Who else trains futsal there besides Gus Donolo?

If you are interested in giving a lot of your money away then futsal with these people is the right choice.

Gus is pretty busy during the winter.

Practices are not 5 nights per week. He uses the entire week and staggers sessions.

Puma Elite = Soccer the Brazilian Way --> Both feed off of FCV.

DCU is closer to home for him. He also has some teams he works with up in Md that are not listed here.

Gus knows his stuff and is very good.

We've heard great things about Gus and his futsal training but with that much on his plate, he must have other coaches who work with him. Any of them any good or is it just him?
