[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yeah the VDA is an interesting idea but it will take another year or so to see what they do with it. My child is on the top 
VYS team and they haven't mentioned a thing about it to any of us. [/quote]

What do you expect VYS and VDA to "do with it"? VYS is simply offering up some field space that might work out for a game or two and perhaps a practice location. If you want to play DA then you must still contact the appropriate coach at VDA and tryout. If you make VDA you are no longer affiliated with VYS and you are a VDA player from that moment on.

So the only thing you need to know now are:

1. Does your kid want to play VDA?
2. Are you willing to drive to Howison for practice?[/quote]

I thought they would discuss what it means for the club, they might suggest top players try out, and actually mention it as a next step option since they are affiliated. Instead they have it on their website like it means something and do nothing with it with respect to players. Completely pointless. Yes, if we want to play DA, we will try out for an actual DA team.

Well, the reality of the arrangement is pretty much what I have laid out. And yes, for the most part it is pointless. It does nothing for VYS other than provide a token carrot but make no mistake, VDA is a separate club and program and must be treated as such. Occasionally some VDA coaches may come to some games or practices and ask about a kid or two who stand out but that is about it.

At best they may have some intra club practices where they take a longer look at the overall player pool between VSA, PWSI and VYS but that is about it in terms of any formal gathering. [/quote]
