No one is worrying about the "talent" that came from fvu or nva. Vda and Arlington's invisible beef will be delt with at the bottom of the board this season...

People have been talking about it's different because of the work cup? Why so??

Generally it's top 3 teams. But for 2025-2026 season, only top 2 because of the world cup they changed the structure particularly for this one year. The Cup winner also doesn't automatically get the bid for the playoffs as well so the best 2 in each age group goes to the playoffs in Seattle. I believe they won't come back for the finals in Richmond as well and everything will be played out in Seattle.

Just for this one year because of the world cup.

Since the Mid Atlantic is down to 10 teams, I believe it's the top three that make nationals. Likely a battle between ARL, CSA, Richmond, and Courage. VDA has a lot of new talented players, but who knows if they'll gel in time. FVU should be solid, but probably not enough to break into top 3.

[quote=Anonymous]Who do we think is making it to nationals this year. I hear people say arlington, vda, courage, csa, and even fvu will be battling for the top spots. I'm just curious what other people think it will be like this year with all the tradings. I've heard and seen some fvu to vda and arlington. To add, I hear nva to fvu and arlington?? Also, is it top two?? Top three?? Look I'm not caught up with all this but can someone explain what's going on?🙏🏻[/quote] Fvu and nationals in the same sentence 🤣🤣

Yes many changes it's hard to tell, but if we're being real fvu is out. Lots of talent on the team yes, but lost some key players to Vda and Arlington this season and some others that just left. Although, they did get some girls from Nva I believe, but I don't think that will help them enough especially not with the short time they have. Vda making it is up in the air, they got some talented new girls on the team but it just depends on how well and fast they adjust. And if they play their cards right. Arlington only got two new that I know of and if so then I think they will be fine this year but also can be in a bit of danger based on the ending of there season. Improvement is definitely needed to keep their spot.

How much will coaching impact standings?

Hard to say with so much roster turnover and coaching changes. The sad part is I think it will be worse come next spring with rumored clubs switching leagues, BY to SY, etc….
