Call it what you want, but not having to deal with b.s. alliances sounds like a win to me in the long run for McLean.[/quote]

Honestly, that "alliance" was frustrating for McLean. MV controlled who gets in and LO (MV was her mentor) was going to rubber stamp whatever he wanted. Thus, VYS got the lions share of slots undeservedly. I would have done the same if I were McLean's management... staying in FVU was a losing battle. Any new member of FVU better have more authority to deal with this control.[/quote]

Sorry your MYS girl didn’t make FVU last year, but you are wrong. For 2012, VYS beat both MYS and BRYC twice in the U12 year, so “undeservedly” doesn’t really stand up. Also, there is only one more VYS than MYS former player on the FVU roster - again, hardly the “lions share.” For 2011, even though LO had been the 2011 coach at BRAVE, about 2/3 of the team comes from old Union. Both teams have worked hard to come together this year as FVU — it’s petty parents on the outside trying to sow discord. [/quote]

Everyone knows the VYS feeder to FVU is horrible. We’ll see how the 2013 does. If they get the big numbers in FVU again they should rename FVU to MVU after MV. [/quote]

What on earth are you talking about?  Multiple 2010 FVU girls that are in pool for the USWNT came through Brave / VYS. [/quote]

What are you talking about? Any kid in the US National Team camp can hardly say one of these clubs really developed them as a player.  All these players are doing an incredible amount of outside the club training with clinics, trainers, private coaches and fitness routines.  It's laughable. We are at top brand team and I swear, the coaches just benefit from which talented and motivated families show up. [b] This year our club's training has consisted of about 80% scrimmaging.[/b]  The kids that are doing amazing things on the team learned none of those things at the club level.   Heck, some of these kids have connections outside the club with USNT scouts.  Clubs like Brave and Vienna Youth Soccer have little to do with it other than providing a platform to play.  [/quote]

And when you scrimmage at Vienna you’re not scrimmaging mid level players.[/quote]

Your kid’s not that good. If they were, you wouldn’t feel the need to bash players that aren’t even mid-level. [/quote]

If my kid were at Vienna then you’re right. They’re not that good. Unfortunately for my DD she won’t have an easy lopsided win against a rec team with a rec dad like Vienna. [/quote]
