[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So winning games and club raking don’t matter? Tell that to the other top clubs….[/quote] Also tell that to the parents who club hop. Players in the DMV do not have to go out of region to get better or be recruited. [/quote]

That is from someone defending their club that continually loses to the better Maryland clubs.  The DMV clubs, especially during the middle school years are failing at developing talent.  Player growth isn't there and it shows.  That's why the top DMV players continue to leave Pride and Stars and go to the better Maryland clubs.  [/quote]
It’s surprising how many kids commute from Virginia to play for the Baltimore teams. [/quote]

Why?  Better coaching, schedules and opportunities.   If the families want to drive a little more, why the surprise?[/quote]

MD clubs get the Nova kids who don’t make Capital.

The sport is growing. 180 DC kids tried out for Capital last year. Not all will make it.

Those who don’t will face the decision of going to Pride, Metro or MCE - or fighting rush hour to go to a MD club to try and match the recruiting strength of Capital.

I’ve been around this crazy sport for years and have never heard of a Nova kid who chose a MD club over Capital. I know plenty who didn’t make Capital and joined a MD club as a second choice. [/quote]

For the capital blue team, i agree.  Many turn down capital orange.

There are a few top DC/Nova players (mostly public school kids) who dont even try out for Capital because of the private school politics[/quote]
