[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Interesting news from Pipeline. Both players were developed as u9 and u10, playing for the same coach. I am not the famed 'Pipeline Dad,' but you have to give the club credit. Besides Richmond and FCV, Pipeline is the only club with teams in the top bracket of most age groups.

2 PIPELINE SC PLAYERS INVITED TO U17 U.S. WOMEN’S NATIONAL TEAM TRAINING CAMP

Two members of Pipeline Soccer Club, Finley Lavin & Hannah Jibril, both 15 years of age, has been invited to join the U-17 U.S. Women’s National Team Virtual Camp. Lavin and Jibril will be among those competing for a spot on the roster that will play in next year’s FIFA U17 Women’s World Cup in India. By their selection, Lavin and Jibril become the first Pipeline players selected by a U.S. National Team, an honor reserved for the top players in American soccer. Lavin has played for Pipeline SC since she was 8-years-old and currently plays on the club’s 2002 ECNL team, coached by former U.S. Men’s National Team player and Club co-founder, Santino Quaranta. Jibril who began Pipeline at 9 years old, currently plays for the 2004 ECNL team, coached by ECNL Director, Danny Skelton. Both players spent 4 seasons with coach Tommy Quaranta at Pipeline.

“We are thrilled for Finley and Hannah for this tremendous accomplishment,” Quaranta said. “The pool of players at the National Team level are separated by very little. Fin has the willingness to work and suffer for her teammates on the field, which makes her great. The soccer ability speaks for itself. Hannah consistently proves to be one of the best attacking players in the region playing a year up. Her creative and fearless mindset will drive her as she fights for a spot on the U17 World Cup roster next summer”

Due to COVID-19 restrictions, the National Team has seen limited action and much of Lavin and Jibril’s initial engagement with the team will be remote.

“I am extremely grateful for this amazing opportunity and couldn’t be more excited to train with some of the best players in the nation,” Lavin said.

“I’m ecstatic to be selected, but I understand there is more to be done. Hopefully, this is the start of a long awaited journey” Jibril said

My kid used to play against Hannah and Finley all the time back in EDP days. HJ’s really good. Fast. Richmond also has three “camp” players as does FCV. My kid’s played against (Richmond) and with (FCV) all of them. They’ll all play D1 and a few pro someday. Kind of fun to see this happen.

Epic regional final several years ago b/n FCV and Pipeline with about 4-5 of these elite players all just before the ECNL and DA/GA age. This is 05G by the way. Good to see they stuck with it and are succeeding. Difference was that Pipeline developed the team and FCV absorbed the #1 Loudoun and #2 ODFC team at that age and recruited some top caliber kids new to the area to form their team. Only one kid on that FCV team grew up playing FCV. Good representative example of how those two clubs work. Not saying one approach is better than the other, just pointing out observations. [/quote]

I know why you are putting quotes around camp. Because it’s not a camp. They are not YNT rostered players. It’s is not a YNT camp. This is ridiculous.[/quote]

And yet your kid wasn't invited to the most inclusive scouting event possible. [/quote]

Seriously.  All the players that were invited to this event are talented. Good for them. They deserve some recognition in this sucky time. [/quote]
