[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Real answer is that DC soccer has no governing federation or unification. Half the teams play EDP (plus futures, etc) with MSYSA, half play NCSL. I volunteer to chair the first DC youth soccer commission and act one will be unifying with one of the state alliances. Signs point to MD because they share the same high school season. [/quote] This is the solution. ALL of the DC clubs think they are elite. ALL of the DC clubs compete with each other. ALL of the DC clubs fail to pay attention to the clubs around them such as Arlington, SYC, Alexandria, Achilles, Potomac and Bethesda and learn from what they are doing in order to retain the talent that keeps leaving. [/quote] I don’t think that’s quite true. Many of these clubs are successfully doing their thing. (PS - Achilles is a DC club). DCSC seems in a different league of dysfunction at the admin level- and I hear from parents significantly more frustration at the operations of the club. Running to RL when the teams are woefully unprepared (and play the wrong season) for that level of competition only compounds the issue. There’s no reason DCSC couldn’t be a competitive club given its size and player pool- but the club is constantly a step behind and frustrating parents. [/quote]
