[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I know the current u12 Pre-mls next coach there is well liked and that team is strong, with several of the kids playing up for the u13s. I believe most, if not all, of the kids hope to stick around for MLS Next next year. [/quote] U12 would seem to be the most relevant data point for someone considering MLS Next, since MLS Next starts at U13; so the 2012 team is relevant. It looks like Alexandria's 2012 "pre-MLS Next" team is strong -- they are certainly competitive with Bethesda and SYC as the other local "pre" MSL Next teams. So much depends on the specific coaches and the mix of players -- whether they are good kids, whether they have a good relationship with one another, etc. And of course, the quality of the parents plays a role in all of that. [/quote] OP here. Thanks for this. I wasn't wondering about a single age group so much. But, I think these points are completely valid for making decisions. I think that if these are the primary concerns, then club is less important than the individual team. Alexandria has some club-specific traits that I was wondering about. The poster above hits on a lot of these points re: training. Thanks for that response. Anyone else choose Arlington, SYC, etc. over Alexandria top teams? Why? Team-specific? Club-related? [/quote]
