[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]is there a 2007 tryout coming up?[/quote]

I don't think we currently have a 2007 team.  [/quote]

Where did all of the 2007 players go? Was it bad coaching or just moving on to bigger clubs? Its crazy that in NOVA a club can't field a single team in a prime age group.[/quote]

All went to different clubs (Burke, BRYC, other places). The coach they had quit in the middle of a season (went to VYS) and it left a bad taste for the 07 parents. FPYC is a good, but small club, with loads of nearby competition, so no it's actually not crazy at all that they don't have a few age groups. [/quote]

After the teams went birth year, FPYC had one 07 team that following year.  The parents and players hated the coach.  He was a UK Elite guy.  The parents claimed the kids got worse throughout the year. After the year, the 07s disbanded.  As someone mentioned, they went to other teams or stopped playing all together.  That coach became the 08 boys coach and they actually liked him quite a bit.  The following year, that coach became the 08 and 09 head coach and it seemed like at least the 09 parents didn't like it and the 08 parents soon followed.  They combined age group practices, so poor player to coach ratios. Kids clowning around.  Everyone got worse.  The coach quit mid year and went to a neighboring club.  The 08 and 09 teams folded after the spring. The club put out an advert on who the coach the 08/09 coach would be but he was already on LMVSC website as being a new coach there for the following year. (Can't make this stuff up.) So it's amazing how one coach was sort of responsible for the collapse of 07s, 08s, and 09s.  I heard that several parents have gone to the club recently and asked them to try to resurrect the 07s and have tryouts but the club says no.  I remember a year or two ago, they did advertise 07 tryouts and kids showed up at Draper but no coaches or admin or anything from FPYC showed up to run the tryout.  Again, can't make this up. It's true that the 07 girls team folded too.  I heard the 06 boys won't be with FPYC next year either. I also heard that the 2010s were going to disband over the winter but they didn't. They stuck it out through the spring.  No idea if they will have a team next year. Lastly, I heard that Reston Soccer/GFR is trying to help FPYC get their crap back together. [/quote]

Wow.  Insane.  They've had some unbelievably good teams in younger age groups over the years.  I think the Joga crew used to be there and they absolutely decimated the top big clubs for a year or two in a couple of age groups.[/quote]
