If anyone thinks the DC area teams are the best, they have not seen California or even Ohio or PA teams yet. [/quote]

NOVA is so over saturated with ECNL clubs, we're never going to be competitive on the national level.  I think the Brave/Union merger is a step in the right direction and will help but realistically speaking there should be only 2~3 clubs in Northern Virginia.

Northern Virginia Population: 3.16M - 5 NOVA Clubs (Arlington, Union, Brave, VDA and NVA) all serve the same market (1,338 square miles)
San Diego County Population: 3.28M - 3 San Diego Clubs (SD Surf, Mel Mar Sharks, Rebels SC) - 4,261 sq miles
Orange County Population: 3.15M - 3 OC Clubs (Pataedores, Slammers FC, SoCal Blues) - 948 sq miles

Nova going to 4 clubs imminently. DC metro area is 5.5M, with no ECNL option in DC proper, and I think only 2 in the MD burbs (Bethesda and MD United). So you’re close to the same ratio of about a club per million that those CA clubs have. [/quote]
