[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The bigger the club, the more coaches they need and it's hard to find coaches who want third, fourth, or lower teams. That's a fact that no club can really get around. Some can throw more money at coaches to take weaker teams than others can but the best coaches want higher teams. Glorified rec teams at the high school ages don't hold too much appeal.

As to VR owning their own fields while Loudoun and the club FKA FCV don't, RavenTek only has a certain amount of space. The bigger they get the more room they will need, so that's going to be a problem I would think?

The one that perplexes me here is Valor. SYA owns something like a hundred acres at their SYA Sports Park. We were there for the Loudoun tournament and the grass fields are nice grass fields, but no lights and no turf? I drove to the back to see what the little road led to and the answer is not much. Are they planning to develop that sometime? Too bad they don't have Revolution's bottomless pockets, because that's a lot of land that they own. [/quote]

Revolution and LS practice at Hanson last year before they took on new members. Everyone acts like their fields are amazing. Yes, it's an okay facility. But, having a couple of dedicated fields for what 40 teams? Hardly something to get excited about. They couldn't even support their own enrollment with last year's numbers, so not sure how that's working out for them this year other than a couple of overcrowded fields.[/quote]

Don't expect Rev to get any bigger than they are now. From U13 and older, the plan is to limit 3 teams per age group. It's not going to be like LS that has 5 or more per age group. U12 and younger may have four teams per age but will shrink as they transition to 11v11.  There's no overcrowding issue with the facility now that FCV no longer practices there. [/quote]
