[quote=SpiritVAParent][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]They won't. I don't understand why, but it's the same at FCV.[/quote]

It was the Same at McLean. It's not on the coaches, these are the top clubs in our area, they are the standard in NV. They are expected to win, if you do not want you're child in that environment, take you're kid somewhere a little less competitive where they will play and enjoy the experience. As a parent you chose to put them in that highly competitive environment [/quote]

But you to the meetings and they tell gou its all about development of the players.
I guess its accepted that they lie to the parents.[/quote]

Players develop in training do they not? You seem like you lack any sort of soccer knowledge , lucky BRYC having to deal with you, I'm sure you would fit in at WSVA with our crazies [/quote]

And development needs game experience.  At some point, your child will start to get old enough to realize they spent their youth "preparing" to play and "developing" to get better but never got to spend enough quality time actually on the field.  Let's be clear.  If by high school, your kid is at BRYC (or FCV or anywhere) and not seeing time, That is unlikely to change at whatever current club with whatever current team.  [/quote]

My daughter plays for FCV, there are kids on her team that should not be playing at that level, and I feel bad for the coach and the other players when he has to play those kids. i would imagine it is the same at BRYC and McLean, I am sure all of the coaches at those clubs would rather not carry players that can't contribute at the level they play at. They are probably told how many players they have to take. [/quote]

It's possible.  Some may feel bad, and some don't care.  The parents though should have a real conversation with their DDs instead of pretending that is a form of success. [/quote]

Although some might find it hard to believe, this is true at WSVA as well.  All the local clubs are struggling to fill the roster behind their 4-6-9-11 best players, and the unfortunate truth of the local area landscape is that for girls from 04 down to probably 08 or 09, the talent dilution across all the DA/ECNL clubs will continue to be a challenge until there is some consolidation and a true pyramid. That talent dilution will keep the DC metro area from having nationally competitive teams—the teams that are most competitive right now, the older FCV and Mclean teams, are teams that were established before the DA/ECNL wars began 2 years ago and have remained intact.  03 gets wobbly and 04/05 are a mess, with the talent spread at every DA/ECNL club very uneven. If all of those girls at the high end of the talent pool who are spread across 7 clubs in NOVA were naturally funneled into two clubs, the way it was with FCV and Mclean just 3 years ago, the landscape would be very different and these boards might even be less vitriolic.  We’d have a club or two that looked more like Richmond United and had similar successes, for example, even in the younger age groups.
