[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In watching the teams play, they haven't looked like just a big and fast team.

All of that said, I've seen some incredibly fast girls whose technical work and first touch is so bad that it beats any value to their extraordinary speed. [/quote]

I have watched the arlington 08 top team. This would be the team that becomes their DA next year. They all are fairly fast but not really that fast- elite speed. Maybe that’s why they did this. Their DA team will need more speed to be competitive. The technical side really depends on teams style of play. Arlington is not known for their technical skills. So it should not be a surprise.

Why do you assume they will be the DA team?  If they are simply taking the top Arlington girls team and making them the DA team, they are not like boys DA at all, where there are more non-Arlington players than Arlington players.  If this is true of girls DAs more generally, I am not surprised they are not competing effectively against ECNL teams. I assume FCV is more competitive at least and makes tryouts more meritocratic.

FCV would actually need people to show up to tryouts to claim meritocracy. [/quote]
