[quote=Anonymous]On the girls side BRYC is not developing the talent they have. They only develop one top team which is a small group of players from u9-u11.

BN is responsible for overseeing so many kids in that age bracket that he doesn't care what happens to them when they get to u12 because he won't be coaching them after that. So they don't get the attention they need beyond the top level team.

The problem is that all the ECNL clubs in the area are pulling from 2x the size (at least) of brycs player pool. Bryc only draws from Fairfax and burke which are small potatoes compared to Loudon county (Loudon ecnl), Arlington county (Arlington ecnl), prince william county (pwsi+vsa)., Or union (McLean+SYC)

Bryc isn't getting players from Springfield any more because of Union, and it isn't getting players from the south anymore because of VDA. So in effect Bryc is walled in in terms of attracting talent from outside areas.

Bringing in FCV to rescue their ecnl teams is really their only way out to get on par with the other ecnl clubs. BRYC ecnl would do well in ecnl-R but are not ecnl material.

So 3 things have happened:

1)the other ecnl clubs either formed partnerships/mergers or they're big enough to self sustain (Arlington/Loudon)

2) BRYC's historical feeder areas are being cut off except for the Burke and Fairfax area which are small pockets anyway.

3) the coaching staff is used to having superior teams... Sure is Easy to coach when your players are better. When have Bryc coaches ever truly developed players? Never, just pulled large numbers from surrounding areas and picked the already talented kids to form teams.[/quote]
