[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am an FCV parent in the know and here is what you need to know.

This is last year at Evergreen.

No fields have been secured for next season at this point.

Hanson Park will not be available for FCV but I'm not going to comment on why.

Bles Park will be beginning construction soon and will not be available for next season.

Western Fairfax is the most likely outcome.

BP has offers from other clubs but has also had offers in the past from ECNL clubs. Nobody knows what he is really going to do.

MP will not be a TD or full time coach.

At least two other FCV coaches are likely to follow CC to VRSC.

CC has told multiple parents he believes VRSC will have GA next year.

STJ makes money on non-GA teams but is losing money with the GA teams.

STJ ownership are not on the same page and lack communication with STJ Sports Management.

Many players and families are considering a move accross multiple age groups if no announcements made by February to clear up this mess.

As for us, we have been very happy with our years at FCV. BP has been extremely organized and we have never had to worry about fields, schedule, etc. DD has developed under FCV greatly. We will stay at FCV if BP commits to next season and another quality TD is brought in to replace CC.

We will leave if BP does not make an announcement by Feb. 1st of some type for next season. There is no point in staying when the draw to FCV is college placement headed by BP and former CC.

Honestly, despite all the hate FCV gets, we are really disappointed about what is happening. Words can't exactly tell you by how much. Our understanding is the STJ Ownership is the biggest problem right now. I don't think they really care about the FCV program.

Yes, NVA will benfit some from this disaster but mostly at next years 06/07 team. Not many people feel good about the coaching there at other age groups. Many parents also do not consider Union due to politics and favoritism. VDA will probably be the biggest benefactor of all of this. Brave will probably get the players who don't make VDA or Loudoun top squad.

Bottom line is, if BP leaves, FCV will lose the majority of it's top players. I don't see STJ investing heavily in new directors or coaching based on what I know.

Good luck to everyone in the same boat as us.

Thank you for an actual answer. My daughter played for FCV many years ago and its sad to see what is happening at the club. Just a warning about Loudoun ECNL and RL, their rosters are huge and getting bigger. With the new NVA "merge" of 3 teams it made the rosters enormous. If your kids isn't a favorite they won't step foot on the field.

Best of luck. I really hope BP can pull a rabbit out of his hat to save the club. Best training in the area on the girls side by far. [/quote]
