[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]^^^^ there have been years where McLean has sent 20+ seniors to play college soccer. You are right that McLean does not have a track record of sending non-ECNL players to college but McLean has never had a team like MSI White that just moved over to McLean and was coached by Nadir. That team has beaten McLean, Bethesda and Loudoun and other top teams in the area and has at least a dozen girls capable of playing at the next level. MSI parents had the choice of going to a non-McLean ECNL team or keep the team together and move to McLean ro remain with Nadir. Some of the top players on the team were already playing McLean ECNL and others will have the opportunity to do so while others will play on the Composite where they will showcase at the top non-ECNL showcases. Given Nadir’s reputation among and connection to college coaches, moving to McLean is not a bad place. Are the players guaranteed college recruiting? No but clearly you can recognize that the opportunity is there.[/quote]

Are these MSI white players wearing Union jerseys or McLean jerseys? This is the problem with these "Union" ECNL teams being overloaded. They all purchases Union kits. They can't just appear for a McLean green team game[/quote]

That might be true at other age groups re: needing two kits, but a dual roster still has a "primary" team and could use a guest jersey when playing for the other team.  The 05 composite players wear Union jerseys.   [/quote]

The message was that a EDP/NL team would be formed under the VA Union umbrella and the team would include MSI White players and some McLean / VA Union players. Both ECNL and EDP/NL would practice together. Rosters for both would be determined on a game by game basis. No one is guaranteed a spot.
Is this MSI White team which is now part of the Union ECNL team playing in another league besides ECNL? I'm curious with what Nadir told them when he brought them over. Also what happened to his 2005 Herndon team?[/quote][/quote]

I have never understood why or how it is possible for him to coach 3 teams at the 2005 age group. Does he actually attend all the practices for all of these teams?[/quote]

I understand why, how is another story. He hasn’t missed a training yet… games are another story. I have no idea how he will pull this off. But, maybe combining the msi girls with his mclean girls will at least help? There are some assistant coaches available so hopefully if he’s traveling with ecnl, for example, there’s an assistant ready to step in for the EDP teams. [/quote]
