[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DD plays for Arlington 2nd team 2011G.  There are a total of 7 2011G teams which is quite amazing actually.  All of them are really good.  It's pretty amazing the level of talent.  Even their 3rd and 4th teams are strong.  Both finished 1st in NCSL league in Fall.  Black team had something like 40 goals that season so no - they can across the board in 2011 shoot :)

2011 year is loaded with talent and for a variety of reasons, everyone went to Arl.  But they have an ADP League between Rec and Travel which they are able to pull from - it's like a developmental league where they can identify talent and a lot of those girls end up at U11/U12 transferring into Travel league upon invitations.  It's a good way to develop talent that I don't see other clubs leveraging.

We played with another large club in the area and I would say Arl is much more aggressive in not pushing passing - not that they don't embrace it but the name of the game is definitely about scoring.  Alexandria for example is crazy about developing passing to the point where everyone loses and by the time of U12, the players sick of losing because they don't know how to score.[/quote]

Rankings app has Arlington 2011G as #1 in country. I don’t know whether they really are the best team nationwide, but they must be really good to rank that high.  With that acknowledged, note also that the second team is 300+, third team is 500+, and fourth team is 800+, so let’s not get carried away with how good the entire age group is. [/quote]

Youth ranking apps are slight of hand smoking mirrors [/quote]
