[quote=Anonymous]Here's the topic:

In NOVA, there are 6 clubs that are considered to have "elite" girls programs... in alphabetical order:

Arlington
Brave (vienna + braddock road)
NVA (Loudon + Valour + Great falls)
VDA (PWSI + VSA)
Mclean Union (Mclean + SYC... not anymore)
St. James

So here is the question:
Let's say every team has 20 players on it, in theory.

That means that in the NOVA area, the 120 top players in each age group are or should be playing on these teams. That may not be the case, but lets say it is.

So we have the top 120 players all competing against each other. These players are going to be the top 120 players in the area, even if they get crap training... they are talented, dedicated, and doing work on their own even with poor coaching.

So are these players really being developed? or is ECNL coaching a black box where we assume it is, but in fact we're just looking at the most talented players already... so it looks like development, but in fact its just crap coaching with the best players?

If these coaches are so good at developing players and coaching, WHY DO THEY NEED TO RELY ON FEEDER CLUBS AND PARTNER CLUBS FOR PLAYERS

I get that there are individual talented players out there who join ECNL... thats fine. but partner clubs implies you can't develop your own players. [/quote]
