[quote=Anonymous][img]o[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Arlington, McLean, Vienna, and PAC are all decent options and close-ish. If you are already in town, you might try and see if you can practice with a team(s) before tryouts to get a sense of the team. Arlington is the largest and has about 5-6 teams at that age group, McLean will probably have 3, Vienna 2 or 3, and PAC 1 or 2, Only issue with PAC is that as the kids get older, the teams tend to start to fall apart as kids have different interests (high school years).[/quote]

Thank you all for this info. Of Arlington, Mclean, and Vienna, which would be most likely for a lower level travel player to make?  On the website Arlington and Mclean have the same day and time for 2010 girls tryout.[/quote]

Arlington is hard to break into at that age unless you are a standout player on a higher team. They recruit externally to fill the top, then push current players down to the lower levels. A caveat- is that if you can get your player at practices with the team before tryouts and talk the with coach- she has a better chance. [/quote]

We are a McLean family so I’m biased, but driving to South Arlington fields from Tyson’s for practices in the evenings is a real grind and something to consider.  But just wanted to note that U15 is when a lot of girls quit (as they head to high school and decide to focus on high school and/or other sports), so there likely will be openings on the lower teams, presumably even at Arlington.

08/09 were told the bottom level team is going away in the fall. They’ll have four levels of teams at that age, not five.  [/quote]
