[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'd assume the OP is talking about BSC...they're the only team other than Arlington with that many people. 
From what I've seen, depending on the year of course, the 3rd teams tend to be around the same as many smaller teams 1st teams, but yeah, for the 5th and 6th teams it's pretty much expensive rec at that point. 
And Arlington tends to play them pretty evenly, so I can see why the OP is annoyed. [/quote]

If its 08 boys, then Blue is playing Arlington's third team - the red team.  The top two teams are, ahem, DA1 and DA2, despite the absence of any DA at the U12 level for boys.  Loudoun is going through the same thing.[/quote]

That makes no sense. You're telling me that the top two teams of 08s are skipping their own tournament?[/quote]

DP.  Yes. The two pre-DA teams are not playing in the tournament. The first bracket has their red team which prior to pre DA was the 2nd team/white, possibly 3rd, because I am not sure how many outside players came in for pre DA.

Different age group, but a little wacky for us too.  I am not sure why we dropped 2 brackets when we were in the semi-finals last year and beat many clubs first teams, yet are placed with their lower teams this year.

I think it's hard to gauge where to place teams with so many different leagues these days and so many teams changing names or adding pre-DA, etc.  It's made it much more challenging for tournament directors to get it right.[/quote]
