[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I understand that this is how the game is played among all these clubs these days. I'm just saying it's ridiculous.

Arlington recruits players from elsewhere. So those players go elsewhere. Eventually, you may have an "Arlington" team that's 1/3rd Arlington, 2/3 everywhere else. The "McLean" team will be about 1/3 McLean, with a few players from Arlington and a few from elsewhere. Hey, maybe the Arlington players can still find a home at Annandale!

And the CCL, which has all these clubs' "top" teams, claims they're all about building up from within the club! Ha ha ha ha ha ha!!!!!

If you're one of the 0.1 percent, by all means try ECNL, DA or a national title-contending club. [b]Otherwise, you're just fooling yourself, spending time in your cars you could be spending on something productive, and robbing your kids of their childhoods.

+100  Well said.  Do you think any of the crazies in this area will listen?  I know high school kids who can barely get out of bed in the morning from all the "high-level" soccer they've been playing through the years.  And the one's  who don't make it (which is to say the majority) always lament so much time wasted for one thing and a crippled body to show for it. [/quote]

Whoa.  If the travel soccer scene in NOVA is resulting in crippled children who have been robbed of their childhoods, I'd advise people to try a club in Maryland or DC. [/quote]
