[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wow, this thread is a mess.  I have seen the Arlington girls u13 DA team play and they primarily played a possession game.  I was impressed with their abilities for 12 year old girls.  Definitely beyond most teams at their age in this area. I am not with Arlington, so I can’t judge beyond that.  [/quote]

Impossible, just like the person who said they'd seen Arlington GDA play last year.

Arlington GDA only has U14 and U15 age groups.   There is no U13 GDA team.

FWIW, I have heard that the U14s do play out of the back,  through the midfield,  and generally try to play a posession style,  but I have not seen it myself. [/quote]

This person is an imposter and has been why the board is messed up.  Whether teams there still play kick-and-run like the past or not, you clearly  don't know anything about Arlington or DA.[/quote]

I had forgotten about the U13 pilot program.  I wonder why none of the U13 teams show up on any of the team pages on the DA website.

But the U13 pilot program in the Atlantic does show up on the DA website when you pull up the schedule, so I see it now.

It looks like the Arlington U13 DA team is in fact doing very well, with a 5-1-2 record so far.

Gerardo Ramirez is a good coach.  I remember him from D-ODP.  The program as a whole was a waste but he was one of the bright spots.   I have never seen him coach a full team, but based on the way he coached at those sessions, it would surprise me if he did not coach a possession style.  He definitely did not strike me as a kick-and-run coach.

So, good for Arlington.     [/quote]
