Arlington has a built in ECNL team and a system that will place your daughter on the Arlington ECNL team if she is good enough.

I can tell you 100% this is wrong.  If your end goal is playing ECNL for Arlington you have a much better chance making it from another team.  They are not looking to promote kids from RL when they can bring a similar skilled player from outside.  They already got the RL kids money.  I would like to know if any of the ecnl clubs in the area do favor the kid on the second team over a new kid if all things are equal.  I doubt any of them do.  [/quote]

My kid is on an Arlington White team, and has been passed over for Red by outside the club players that are not better than my kid.  We are landlocked to Arlington since it is just too tough to get to McLean or Alexandria for practices.  But we like the other players and familes (White team parents are very normal - not crazy Red or Academy parents), and we have no expectation that our kid will continue playing in college.  We just like the team experience for our kid, the time management with homework and other activities, and having another adult critique their behaviour.[/quote]

"landlocked to Arlington" WTF!? [/quote]

Yes, believe it not most parents don't have time to drive their kids 30-45 minutes one way to practice three times a week.  Shocker for you.[/quote]

oooh struck a nerve. You clearly don't believe in your DCs soccer potential[/quote]
