Loudoun will always be a step behind because they don’t take the time to develop their teams. You see it from the u littles - all they care about is winning that’s why these teams struggle when they get older. They moved on from ECNL because they can’t stand being the small fish in a big pond.

You are clueless, Loudoun has some of the most competitive younger age teams in dmv.

Very true, solely from a HUGE pool of young local players. It's slipped in qualify recently with the influx of other clubs. They don't develop their players they just grab the meanest and fastest kids and run them into the ground by u14 when you have to understand how to move the ball not just blast and chase it

Tell me which ECNL does develop their players. They all recruit and import players. VDA is exhibit A. Sure, clubs will have some players who have been with them since U9 but that’s not development that’s just luck that a talented player happened to live nearby. There is not a single top player at these clubs who wouldn’t have been just as good had they been born 20 miles away and joined a different club at U9

No development without risk.



If your kid is not willing to take risk and learn to play better they won't development.
I don't think it's all on the club's fault for developing players. The player has to be willing to take risks and change the way the play. If a coach tells a player to work on their left foot at u13, if they keep working on it, maybe the next year they will be good with their left foot. But if the player doesn't take those risks or doesn't feel like they can take those risks because they (or someone else) wants to win, then they will never develop their left foot.

Messi has no right foot. What’s your point? Lmao

Virtual school is what gambling is. Remember well. No academics= no good career. Soccer is transient although 1 in a million can make it like Messi or CR7.

Gambling assumes you are aware of the relative risks and likely payoffs. I can think of some better words to describe it

Virtual school does not equate to highly selective schools so its a bold choice to go all in on professional route for 98% of kids playing youth soccer

Since my kids are in virtual school, i'd love to see the data and assumptions baked into this statement. Depends on the student, no?

Yes it does so 2% could be your kid, who are we to know? Don't honestly care, just commented that it was a bold choice, no judgement. But touchy, no? Theres a little judgement now. Virtual School is essentially HomeSchool kids which is been in Enrollment Management jargon and data for years. So yes plenty of facts to back up my assertions and even giving you keywords so you can do your own research too!

Not PP but this guy is in the business clearly so unless your virtual school/homeschool kid is Makenna Whitham or Cavan Sullivan the 1% of the 2% you might be in the wrong galaxy Mr. Bold Choices

If your kids weren't playing soccer or another sport would they still be in virtual school? If not then even you don't think it's better academically but have made a tradeoff in the hope that it helps their sport. No judgement you get to make the decisions for your kids. Maybe it will pay off. Just be honest about why you are doing virtual school.
