[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Why don't all Club TDs act like adults and look for collaboration in this youth soccer thing--between Clubs, between teams, between leagues. Since they don't, we have Clubs right next door to each other that won't join the same Leagues. We are crisscrossing good competition to play worse competition a much farther drive away because of pissing matches. [/quote] This is very true. For example, BRYC and McLean's boys ECNL teams (i.e., their top teams) will play almost all of their away games against teams based in North and South Carolina. One would think there are better ways to "develop" players without subjecting them to multi-hour weekly travel to places like, Greenville, Cornelius, Greensboro, Wilmington, Raleigh, Columbia. [/quote] Hyperbole. Nobody is traveling WEEKLY to North and South Carolina. The trips are bundled, two nearby NC teams travel north to play two NoVA clubs. With 6 total clubs in NC/SC that is one to two trips per season. All the other games are home or are against Richmond, Loudoun, BRYC, McLean, and VDA. So not that bad. [/quote] I was talking about boys ECNL teams. According to ECNL website, there are no Loudon, VDA or Richmond teams in the same conference - it is just BRYC and McLean and a bunch of Carolina teams. http://www.boysecnl.com/mid-atlantic-conference/ Perhaps, they could cut down some travel by playing doublheaders on the road, but why do it in the first place? Is the competition in North and South Carolina so much better than in metro DC area to justify this kind of travel/expense? [/quote]
