[quote=Anonymous]Look, in some ways BSC can’t win on this board. A few years ago people were bashing the girls side and saying it’s a sinking ship and needs new direction. Now, the younger ECNL girls are killing it. 2010-2012 are all in first place in a tough North Atlantic. 2009 is a down year and 2008 is near the top as well. SC and KL coach those teams. That’s not a coincidence.

They are also difficult, loud, and particularly with SC can be full of rage and demeaning. Some find it unacceptable. Some tolerate it. BSC management is well aware from direct complaints and survey feedback. But they’re winning and girls are knocking on the door trying to join the teams, and they’re stacking them 20+ which is more a money maker. Pipeline can barely win a game anymore in ECNL and you’ll see more top girls on BSC rosters next year.

The MLSN teams are generally above average albeit not at the very top. They’re playing at the top levels of soccer in near MoCo vicinity by a long shot.

They’re doing something right. It’s also not for everyone and if GA girls/ECNL boys or EDP/NL is more for you than do it. Or traveling further for another MLSN or ECNL not as cutthroat.

I don’t quite get is some of the 2nd and 3rd teams and why people pay so much and travel so much (ie RL). The name carries something in MoCo from the near monopoly and Potomac’s chronic low performance and failure to seize more of the market. Like a status symbol for some people living in Bethesda.
