It's a shame APS and the county don't coordinate better. There are tons of fields for rec soccer. It's crazy to think they couldn't work in capacity for 3 HSfreshman teams.

Good for you in Nebraska where there's hardly anything other than fields. We live in Arlington.

No one in Arlington does who would they play?

No one in Fairfax either.

Field space is always an issue, but more importantly, it's not funded. APS has decided it won't fund Boys Volleyball which has been a VHSL varsity sport in FCPS, ACPS, etc.

If there is available funding I have no doubt sports opportunities would increase.

how many try out?

Same thing every year.

Boys and girls soccer are super competitive at WL - good players get cut from both teams every year, even at the JV level. It’s rough and I feel for those kids.

It's so competitive. Some good kids definitely don't make it. Try again next year though- some kids who don't make it as a freshman do as a sophomore.

Did your kid get in? Some good kids seem to have been cut
