[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Our son loved the futures experience and it was more than worth it for us. It was a great experience so with my limited knowledge of the academy i still think it’s something they did well.

💯

I don’t doubt it but that is not a hard bar to clear coming from P2P.  We are at a “top” club and it is a 💩 show compared to our experiences overseas so DCU Academy should be an upgrade on P2P as you have experienced.  
 
When DMV born and raised players such as Luka Bentt, Makai Wells and Gustavo Borges are advancing far faster than their counterparts in the DCU academy isn’t it fair to start asking questions in order to improve or should we just remain complacent?[/quote]

Which idiot says they know soccer, throws out 3 names that took a different path and seriously ask why isn't everyone taking those paths?

Did all three of those names you name-dropped take the same exact path to where they are now, wherever that is?
Speaking of which, where is for example Makai Wells today that no DC Academy players hasn't been?[/quote]

I guess you don't know too much to know as they all originated in the same place.  Two had passports, one did not.  All aimed to get away from DCU.

Since you are back and we have your attention, how many kids from Philly are in our RDS system?  That was the last question posed.  You conveniently disappear when asked any question to support DCU.[/quote]

I will add too that at least one, prob 2, of those 3 were on the protected list for a while.  [/quote]

What is the RDS system?! Is that even something that can be legitimately related to a pathway to DCUA?![/quote]

RDS stands for Regional Development School.  It is DCUs effort to extract as much money as possible in a market that has so many eager and uneducated (in soccer), but wealthy, parents.  It is a money grab, nothing more.  There is practically no legitimate pathway to DCU from the RDS and anyone who says otherwise, including DCU, is absolutely lying to you.  It is just another way for DCU to make money and get a larger slice of the pie that the Bethesdas, Arlington's , Alexandrias of the world are getting.  It is also open to girls to give you a sense of how disconnected the RDS is from the DCU academy.  [/quote]

Good thing you're not liable for slander as anonymous, so you can just say anything.

My kid just did RDS and we never once were promised that this was a pathway to being on a DC United Academy team etc [/quote]
