[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kid left Vienna for a top club and team before U13 but (1) VYS taught how to play the right way and provided the background that facilitated transition, and (2) the broader point is not about credit, but whether there is sufficient critical mass of talent to support an ecnl team. They have a lot of talent for a small area of about 40k people but need alliance with BRYC, GFR and/or Annandale to support a full and competitive roster. [/quote]

I've had several kids go through VYS house and/or travel, and I agree with this 100%.  In my experience on the boys side, VYS has some great coaches at the younger age groups right now; a few years ago my experience with the older age groups was not so great, but my older kid is no longer playing club soccer.

I do think that VYS is in a prime location for attracting talent -- we don't live in Vienna but there are many surrounding areas for which VYS is the most conveniently located club. Some of my kids may stick with VYS based on their talent, others might have to make a switch to another club if they want the more competitive ECNL league.  It would be great if VYS could find a way to partner with BRYC/GFR/Annandale or whomever to provide an ECNL option, while at the same time keeping the more local option (and very good house league).
