[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What’s up over there at Fairfax Virginia Union?   Might be time to make some serious organizational changes.  I just checked the standings and all of the teams on the boys side have terrible records.  One team was .500, the rest were all in last or second last place and there was even a team that has a -80 goal differential.

It’s not much better on the girls side once you cut out the 2012 and 2013 teams.

Would be a great boost to the competitiveness in the area if this club could get its act together.  I don’t think it’s a case of too many teams, rather a lack of effort by this club to attract the 4-5 quality players they need from neighboring teams.  Look at Villarreal, FPYC and grab a couple kids.  I doubt anyone drives from more than 8-10 miles to play for FVU.  What they have isn’t cutting it.  [/quote] they are going to lose ECNL.  Only matter of time[/quote]

On the girls side, the 2012s just won the mid-Atlantic after beating Arlington and the 2013s went undefeated and won the mid Atlantic. [/quote]

FVU is definitely not losing ECNL.

Can 2012 style of play win at U15 and older like it has at U13 and U14?[/quote]

In the spring in high school yes. And with a clinical forward and wingers, sure it can work -- you just need 2-3 chances a game to win. But I have to imagine eventually it won't work. The better teams will have the defensive speed to neutralize that style of play. For the U14s though, job well done. They have to win to get into the bigger recruiting showcases and they did it. But the bigger colleges will see right through the players on the team that are nowhere near that caliber of play. No amount of how hard and long some of the booters can boot the ball will impress the scouts. It will impress their HS coaches, though, and they'll make varsity as freshmen. Clap clap clap. But in reality in a few years it will be a slew of low-level college commitments or lack of offers and I'll giggle when I see how many of those will be a tier below what some of the RL kids will be garnering.[/quote]
