[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How would DC United, an MLS team with training facilities for team players and U12 DA and above affect U9 Travel teams, or any rec team?  I don't think you know what you're talking about.[/quote]

There are a large number of U9-U11 travel - plus U8 academy - players driving 30-40 mins each way 3x/week from Sterling, Purcellville, South Riding, Brambleton, etc. on Loudoun's teams. A lot of those kids are on Loudoun's 2nd-6th teams, but hoping in time to move up to the Red (1st team) and make the DA. I think a good number of those people will look for closer options -- i.e. play for another club like Sterling's 1st team rather than Loudoun's 3rd or 4th team since being in the Loudoun system won't be an advantage later on at U14, etc.  We'll see.[/quote]

Planet earth would appreciate if those parents make that decision now as oppose to later.

BTW, you're saying there are people who plan that their player that has been seen by coaches in Loudoun and was placed on the 3rd-4th team(not even going to talk about 5th-6th) think that going to additional training by those sames coaches will eventually lead to their player being selected on the DA team?!?!?!

Yes. Definitely, yes. Think they'll jump from white (3rd) to black (2nd) after a year and be in play for red/DA after 2-3 years.
