[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The top school in Virginia is without question UVA. Do me favor: Google: UVA Womens soccer roster Now, tell me how many girls are from Virginia and where they come from (Club, HS) You might find it eye opening and a much needed reality check [/quote] A sad fact - and one I had to show my own soccer player so she didn't get her hopes up. [/quote] 26 on roster. 4 from VA (2-McLean, SOCA, Bethesda)[/quote] Wait, isn't Bethesda MD? [/quote] Congrats, but there are kids at other clubs getting offers too. That is the point. It has more to do with the player than the club. Step 1: Get in front of college coaches. Step 2: Be good at soccer. There are lots of ways for a player to get in front of college coaches. Between ID camps as well as ECNL or DA showcase events. 4 ECNL and 3 DA clubs mean lots of places for a player to actually get meaningful minutes and be in front of college coaches whether or not the team is a winning or losing team. Sit the bench at FCV and watch your teammates play in front of the college coaches if you want but the club name won't do a thing for you if you're not playing.[/quote] Non-DA FCV parent here. We get plenty of playing time and participate in multiple college showcases. Per PP, it's not always just about the league, sometimes there are excellent players on non-DA or non-ECNL teams. :idea: [/quote] It is about getting in front of the college coaches period. The league is one of the best vehicles for that exposure but yes it is not the only one. And it is always about the player, not the club though. [/quote]
