[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So how does further consolidation in the DMV happen? ECNL leadership decides it just like they did with Union and Brave? It would make sense to go down to two ECNL clubs in NOVA just outside of DC instead of three (counting NVA, Arlington, Union). VDA draws up and down 95 to Richmond. Southern California ECNL players travel really long distances too to their practices. No way we’re more congested than souther California. Parents would be willing to drive far for a really competitive club in the DMV. [/quote]

Club consolidation doesn’t need to happen. One club just needs to rise above the rest in terms of coaching, philosophy and organization. Unless fields are an issue stunting growth, this is how talent, player and coaching. will consolidate. [/quote]
Yes! Competition is a good thing. The last thing we want is just a couple of huge clubs that can do whatever they want because there is nowhere else to go[/quote]

This is exactly the case now. Clubs will get money whether or not they win. There is no incentive to recruit better coaches and develop better overall training  because they fill rosters no matter what. [/quote]

So then more competition is actually better, not less. Agreed that clubs like Arlington have no incentive to improve as they have a captive audience and excess demand. [/quote]

Not entirely true. Arlington pours resources onto that 2011 team but no one else.[/quote]
