[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=RantingSoccerDad][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Strikers were in town this weekend and VYS seemed to hold their own on the boys side.

09s, 05s, and 04s won.
10s,06s, and 02/03s lost.
07s and 08s didn't play.

Not bad.[/quote]

How did the girls side do?[/quote]

10s, 08s, 06s, 04s, 02/03s won.

09s, 07s, 05s lost.

This finishes out the Fall Regional League season for most of the VYS top teams.  The girls did quite well overall.

Seems, they do much better when compared to the boys' side. Why is that? 
[/quote]

4-3 vs 3-3 is “much better? “ Is that the basis of the question, on the assumption that Richmond strikers are equal on both?  More generally, not true in our experience. About equal, with older girls teams and younger boys teams a little better. [/quote]

I think they mean generally. [/quote]

Maybe comes down to coaching.  VYS has separate coaching directors for the girls and boys. 
I'd assume that creates a different approach. [/quote]

I'd agree with this assumption.  I've seen both sides play and the girls have a much better understanding of how to play the game.[/quote]

Have not seen the girls play.  Younger VYS top boys teams are one of the few teams in the area that tries to play out of the back and with shape.  They are definitely coached well and some move on to other programs with demanding soccer expectations for lateral players.  Hard to believe that would be confined to the boys teams at that age.  I cannot speak to older ages.  I know VYS boys suffer a lot of attrition to other sports and, among top players, to other very competitive programs.  I can see the same being true on the girls side for other clubs, but not necessarily with other sports.  So that may explain what one sees over time as well.  Don't know.[/quote]
