[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Maybe the start of a regional league with relegation and promotion. Maybe someone will wise up and realize that there is not a need to travel to MA or SC for a league game when you have elite teams next door. Does it make any sense for FCV to travel to NY when Mclean, Arlington, Bethesda, MUFC, etc. are within 50 miles. I sure hope this situation forces people to get serious. [/quote]

There are already regional leagues to play in. [/quote]

Get serious. The idea is to keep the top teams locally during league play. There is no need to travel to MA, CT, SC, or NC for games. Create a national league like the ECNL or DA where all serious clubs are members. Follow a format where there is an area conference and the top one or two teams in an area make the regional playoffs. The winner of the regional playoffs goes to nationals. That is one idea. Teams can still do showcases but we get away from having multiple national leagues with different champions. We also get away from insane travel.  [/quote]

Get serious, you know the commitment of the league before you accept a spot. There are regional leagues that are competitive that your kid can play in. I hate to break this to you but the only one “making” your kid drive to NY, CT etc to play soccer is you. [/quote]

The point is to get rid of the current structure and develop something better so that a kid to play at the highest level to w/o breaking the bank because of travel-related costs. [/quote]

The point is there are options. Pick one that works for you and your family. [/quote]

Another point is that youare clearly a moron who doesn't want to admit that you should be able to play elite level soccer in this area without traveling more than 75 miles. At any age group, McLean, Pipeline, Bethesda, FCV, MUFC, Arlington, SAC, Baltimore Celtic, Baltimore Union, Loudoun and Rush, VDA, Frederick, etc., offer competitive games on the girls side. If teams really want to face the bestin the nation, they can do several showcases, like they do now.
