[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes, the SYC 2006 top boys team is incredible..beats EDP and CCL teams in tournaments.[/quote]

Many teams beat CCL and EDP teams in tournaments---especially the MD teams.  WTH is in the water in MD?

The CCL teams all stick together and do each others tournaments anyways.  They'll often throw each other some of their many teams in an age group to fill out brackets.  They generally play the same teams over and over again.  Then get shocked when they step outside the CCL bubble.[/quote]

This is not accurate. Are there teams in ccl that are terrible ? of course there are. But several of the best clubs in ccl dominate state cup. The only teams getting shocked in state cup are NON CCL. [/quote]

None of this says anything about your child's skill or personal development.  The CCL teams play American soccer.

Most knowledgeable soccer parents tend towards a different type of development for their children.  Personalized, skill and possession-based.  They don't buy into the big club mantra.   These kids are light-years beyond 'state cup' play which used to be the goal in the 1980s, 90s.  Not anymore.[/quote]

This is not true for all. My kid played against some of the NOVA CCL teams and they played possession style soccer. There was no kick and chase going on. [/quote]

Just about every ccl team my kids under U-12 have played just have the goalie do the long punt it out of the back every.single.time.  This shouldn't even be allowed in the younger years.  It just results in the type of soccer where you send the biggest kid down the middle.  They are learning absolutely nothing about the sport or play doing this.  It's a detriment to their development--especially as physical attributes even out down the road.  Watch champions league and see how often that is done in real play.  LMVSC is one of the few that don't do this.[/quote]

What team do your kids play for ? [/quote]
