[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What happened to the VDA 2012 girls? From what I can gather, they have not won a league game this spring.[/quote]

Team morale goes south quick when half the team is cut for the following year. This is the VDA way. [/quote]

Two thirds were cut and one of those is out for the rest of the year. 4 kids are still playing that will stay with the team. I’m surprised they can still put 11 kids on the field every weekend.[/quote]It’s an unfortunate situation. A lot of this has to do with AS vs BP. There is definitely a toxic environment. A lot has to do with half the team getting replaced with kids who have been playing a year older and are stronger. The other half is AS and how he has done a poor job helping kids push through and stay together as a team. AS seems to be a real problem, so I am curious if he well respected internally or at risk for the following year? I am sure the parents who are moving on have voiced their concerns to ML and/ or BP. Given how much focus VSA and PWSI spend on pathway to VDA, it appears from outside in that there is a big hurdle with AS. Do you think AS has staying power?[/quote]

That is a wake up call to the VDA chasers. VDA does not develop. Fact. They will take your money, suck their young teams parents dry until U-15 then dump everyone ( most with physicality and no technical skills) and bring ready players from outside. How is this development???[/quote]Arent a lot of the players coming from the 2011 team vs outside? Players do come from the outside, but a lot (majority) are repeats. [/quote]

So are the "younger" 2012s  at least going to the 2013s?[/quote]
