[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Arlington 2015s beat McLean this spring and nearly tied SYC. [/quote]

Loudoun 15s have beaten McLean 2x and losses to SYC are both by 1 goal.  VA 2015 teams seem to go SYC>Loudoun>Mclean>Arlington with the last 2 being very close.   [/quote]

From what we've seen - admittedly not all of those teams above - this seems about right, but like always, it will change - significantly.
I will say that Bethesda and Pipeline both seem to be a step above Loudoun as well for the 2015s, but when Loudoun plays well they seem to be really good. However we've played and seen them so many times already that we've seen them not play well (like all 9 year olds are prone to do).[/quote]

I have seen all these teams play and I noticed one commonality in their style, Arlington, loudoun, Alexandria. They all play their boys in specific positions  with very little movement/rotations, if your best defender gets injured or sick your team has problems because you did not develop other players to play the position.

Bethesda, mclean, Coppermine and syc are the only teams that I have seen so far actually move players in different positions and rotate them very often along with equal playing time, they sometimes lose games for this reason.

The other trend is that those three teams do extremely well at tournaments compared to the others because they play their best players in their positions when its for a tournament and substitutions determine the match and they have deep benches due to giving equal development.

Bethesda-Jeff Cup finalists
Mclean-Won playing up 2014 bracket
SYC-Multiple tournament winners
Coppermine-Jeff Cup winners
