ID session

If you miss it you can always email Tom and come to a practice

Washington Spirit Virginia is having its last and only session before May this Sunday.

I expect it will be well attended for the younger age groups (08-06).

Huh? You are quite insane.

+1 MYS is bad for a whole lot of problems, nothing to do with other clubs. Talk to the parents or try it for a year.

So the theory is that current WSVA parents are recruiting for ages 3-4 years younger than their own daughter’s team? What benefit is it to them to be recruiting for an age group like 07 and 08 of their daughter is an 04-06? That doesn’t seem to pass the red face test.

What if I told you that selective parents are working on behalf of the club to recruit player with the knowledge and blessing of the club. Would you believe it?

I would believe it. I wouldn't really care though. Because how is that any different than most clubs and annual changes/tryouts, etc. -- parents talk to parents they know. Unhappy people are looking for new homes. Ambitious people are looking for new opportunity. And clubs recruit -- this board always says "If FCV wants you, they will find you" for instance.

At the end of the day, happy players won't leave a good situation. So if McLean is providing a good situation and its players are happy, what do they have to worry about? Arlington, BRYC, Spirit, even Bethesda are all there and options if they want, but only if they are unhappy.

The players who left McLean midseason -- where did they go? Isn't that the club that must be recruiting?

If people are really reading DCUrban forums before making a decision on where their daughter should play--they have bigger issues to worry about.

Please tell the class how such recruitments work?

Do the people being recruited have a say in all of this or are they under some magic spell?

How does such propoganda work on this forum if the recruiters are dealing directly with the parents personally?

How does all ofc this work and how do you know so much about it?
