[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My guess is she plays ECNL RL at FCV and is a DP who does not see the field (like all dps at fcv)[/quote]

Ummm, ok.  In that case the move from Loudoun to the older FCV NPL team was a step down, considering even Loudoun ECNL &gt; NPL and FCV PT DA is essentially a carrot to keep parents paying, as you mentioned.  [/quote]

She's on ECNL RL (used to be VPL apparently) which we didn't even know happened until they handed us ECNL patches after a game one day... It was odd, but we rolled with it since DD was practicing PT with DA anyway (she wants to play HS ball and swims - so has no intention of FT GDA whatsoever). We moved from Loudoun solely because of the training. Can't speak for 05 ECNL at Loudoun, but we hear just as many complaints about their program as FCV DA (at least 07, 06, and 05 levels).  :?: And nope - don't pay $$$ for DA training, and we don't have a carpool either. [/quote]

That makes sense.  You are aware that the ECNL regional patch doesn't really mean anything, right?   As long as you are comfortable in the fact that 99% of kids rostered as PT at FCV will never sniff the DA field in a meaningful way, you should be fine.   There are folks here who want their kids to have good chances to play in showcases but it's clear you aren't one of them, which is OK.   For any gripes about Loudoun or other true ECNL programs, those kids will get many. many more looks than the FCV 2nd team.[/quote]

We know absolutely nothing about "Regional League" for ECNL. And she wants to play HS so DA isn't important, just the training (which is why we switched). We have played in three showcases, so not sure what that means? She's in 8th grade, so not super worried about college looks until next year. [/quote]

Not all showcases are created equal.  If you want your kid to play in college (decent school, anyway), FCVs second team (NPL, NCSL, or wherever) is really not the place to be. [/quote]
