[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I heard that there was no competition for most Arlington’s second teams against VYS. Some games Arlington put a clinic (well-coached and quality players for second-team level of play). VYS was just kicked and run for the most part. It was a great reality check for VYS. Now, Loudoun will probably be the same way! [/quote]

Not on the girls' side just on the boys' side.
But this is expected. Everyone understands there is a stark difference of quality between boys vs girls at Vienna. [/quote]

Not even true on the boys side.  I went to check the scores for this epic beatdown and out of five boys age group games there is one tie, two one goal games, and two multi goal shutouts.  So yeah - two of the older boys age groups have had difficulty maintaining a competitive team.  [/quote]

This will always be the case in Vienna because they don't have the platform (ECNL or MLS Next) to sell the top players on staying. Best talent goes to one of the 3-4 clubs in the area where they can be recruited for college. Not all but enough to make a difference between having good teams vs. great teams. Vienna's model is not about being a pipeline to the pros, and that's fine. It's about giving a community a connection to soccer and developing the skills of younger boys and girls.  Nothing wrong with that. [/quote]
