[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Any word on a VLC 28 restart?  If not they are missing the window [/quote]

It is literally 10 days away from summer tournaments start to kick off. If VLC doesn't have a 2028 team at this point (and I've seen no mention of tryouts) they aren't going to have one for this summer. My guess is that they try to form one in the late summer for kids heading into HS. But, the fact that VLC has been unable to field 8th grade teams 2 years in a row, raises 2 issues: 1) I'm guessing a team will form for HS but will be basically spare parts from other teams; 2) I'd be very concerned if I was a parent of kid on VLC's 2029 team[/quote]

The plan was never to have a team for summer tournaments.  Their plan is to hold summer tryouts in July and form a 2028 team for fall and continue through HS, at the same level as the 2026 and 2027 teams, which are very respectable in those classes.  Best case is that they assign a good 2028 coach, and pick up most of the PVI freshman class, plus the Virginia based players on ML, NL, and DCE (some of whom are in the PVI class) and add in athletic kids from Loudon county who are not on one of the big three, and have a killer team.  My son is a starter on one of the big three and we are sufficiently dissatisfied with all three of those programs that we would take a close look at VLC 2028 if they can pull that off.  The worst case is that they never get organized, or they hold tryouts and only 10 or so kids show up, and they scrap the team.  Either scenario is possible.[/quote]

I don't know. Sounds a lot like hoping and praying that kids and parents make the same decision you want to make. And I have no problems with what you are doing. We are all trying to make the best decisions for our kids, family and life. But, in general hoping and praying isn't a plan.[/quote]
