[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This weekend was the regional club championships and teams from MD and DE compete.  Based on the level of play, the top clubs in the local DMV commuting area are Freedom and Warhawks.  Watching these teams play in all three levels, there is no comparison on the stellar coaching and athletic ability of the teams.   These clubs seem to focus on the fundamentals, conditioning and field IQ.  The ball is glued to their stick, they understand passing lanes, and their speed on and off the ball is very strong.  Also, the coaches clearly coached constructively on the sidelines.  Other teams in the commuting area don’t compare to these 2 clubs.  The one thing I noticed was Washington Wolves carried a large roster with atleast 7 plus players warming the bench in each age bracket. I heard numerous parents frustrated about this.   The other clubs seemed reasonable with 2-3 active subs and no bench players.   If Freedom or Warhawks is too far, one clear up and coming team looks like Next Level’s younger u14 age group as their roster size was not large giving all players the ability to participate and develop and the coaching was clear during the game on how to adjust.

This is a good summary of the teams in this area.  Freedom U16 came in 2nd in the country at the recent National Club Championship.  They are clearly doing something right.  [/quote]
