[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Another Richmond kid made the team from Kickers/RU. Left to play for another academy, not DCU. Richmond kids going to all other academies accept DCU. Seems like a miss.

Someone may want to tell the kids from Richmond and Richmond area currently at DCU that they're not actually there [/quote]

Are there a significant number of DCUA kids from Richmond? If so, I would like to understand why they are having so much success vs DMV kids. [/quote]

What is this list of successes Richmond kids are having over DMV kids?
Can you post the link or provide the information?

I think the thread was started bc we have kids from RVA on both U15 & U16 teams and no one from DMV or DCUA. The RU teams are on par with most DMV but certainly not better.

The youth national teams are definitely political beasts.  But they also usually get a lot of things right in terms of talent identification. Of course they miss a lot too but they do hit quite a bit.  Maybe the kids aren't good enough in the DMV any more and other regions have surpassed the DMV in terms of talent development.  That is certainly possible.  But also, DCUA isn't doing the kids any favors.  They are not respected by US soccer as a talent machine so politically they aren't getting anyone on usynt consistently.  DMV has talent.  The development of that talent is what is questionable.  DCUA is a big part of that.[/quote]

Are you in US Soccer and giving us insider information directly from the horses mouth about what's said at executive meetings?

Where can we find the objective measurable data and stats on youth talent and development that you're using to say the DMV is behind Richmond and were passed by other regions?[/quote]
