[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]All of Arlington soccer. The club is run on politics.[/quote]

Really? 
[/quote]

The DAs (meaning the actual DA, not what they are calling U12 “DA” teams) appear to run independently of the club at large and well. The rest of the club reflects exactly what its members want. So yes, hacks, but very responsive to their parent members. [/quote]

Are you saying Arlington DA is mostly free from politics, but the rest of the club is politics driven?  [/quote]

My only experience with Arlington is in the DA (came up thru another club) and i haven’t seen politics on the DA side.  [/quote]

Their 03 Academy finished last in tournament bracket (BRYC beat them 7-1) and many of their younger teams finished in bottom of brackets this weekend.  The Club never seems to do well against MD teams, or outside of the same few CCL teams they play over and over.  I think the overall quality in the Club has been going down for quite some time.  Maybe some of the things mentioned are the reason why.  Or- maybe there are now so many other Clubs with better development/coaching that relying on numbers/largest player pool alone is no longer good enough in this area. They lost many good coaches over the years that couldn’t stomach the system.  The reign of the big boys like Loudoun and Arlington really doesn’t exist anymore. That is what is promising, better soccer vs kick and run is becoming more prominent with more options for players and coaches that don’t do politics and are more concerned with individual development.  Too big to fail...[/quote]

Arlington girls does not do enough technical training in the u littles(u12 and below). They are athletic enough but lack the ball skills of some other programs. They seem to work on speed of play before a lot of players have developed enough individual skills need to play that way. In the top brackets in the bigger tournaments every team is fairly close athletically, the difference is usually technical skill. Good technical skills allows faster speed of play. [/quote]
