[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=FPYCparent]I cannot speak for all of FPYC (gotta be about 10 or so sports offered within the club), nor can I speak for all of FPYC Soccer.  As a parent, I rarely hear from the mothership(s) directly.  I can only speak on my experience with the 2008 Girls.

I hope I didn't convey any strong opinions about the club/team/coach; I tried to keep it just to facts, most of which can be verified.  I kept the other post just to the basics of when my DD joined, the flow of players joining and leaving the team, this year's fees and match locations, and how we communicate internally.  Only the bit about playing time and roster spots veered a little from facts.

If anybody wants subjective information about the team, I have no problem sharing my own insights.

[b]This team does not practice at Draper on a regular basis.  Too much "competition" with other FPYC (and Fairfax High?) teams/sports.  Perhaps this team will get more time there as they age.  For now, we've got Lanier and Green Acres for practices[/b].[/quote]

And this is one of the main reasons why the club overall has struggled to attract quality travel players in recent years.  This is an NSCL D1 team, one of the 2 highest performing teams at the club, and it has to practice at 2 of the crappiest fields in northern virginia, while the older rec teams get lighted turf space.

The powers-that-be at the club have decided that "we don't give preference to travel teams over rec teams" is the hill they're gonna die on, and that's exactly what they're doing.  [/quote]

Only one third of Field 2,  assigned for Rec is used 5:30-7:00 pm pretty much every Tuesday-Thursday. [/quote]
