Aberration? Look at SOS the worst by a mile in top 25. Rankings are just arbitrary numbers until the playoff results show who can actually compete. Majority of this team was together to lose 10-0 last summer in the playoffs so all bets are off until they can punch a ticket to Richmond.
ha, I had forgotten about the 0-10 until you reminded me.

The boys side needs new coaching for sure, a restart and refresh. The girls will grow. VDA has huge rosters and tons of talent, not all will be happy with playing time. Things will shift again.
From my understanding, probation doesn't exist. But ECNL encourages mergers and partnerships increase the talent pool so clubs/teams can perform better.
FVU is fine now, but they were struggling after so much turmoil but everyone is hoping this is the last divorce/marriage. The kids are good and worth it! Thinking in another year you'll see real growth. Keep driving 45 mins one way to practice 4x a week. We don't mind the small rosters now. Larger rosters create their own turmoil.
But remember ECNL is actually the problem. Greedy and killing the youth game.
Lol where exactly do you find the remaining 20 players that are ECNL "Caliber" in this diluted area?

That team is an SYC team. SYC should claim all credit. Yes it is an aberration.

U12 girls as well, but thats in part because several girls quit during the year due to the bad coaching and team dynamic.

Are rosters for FVU actually small? They are notorious for overly large rosters (23 I think for 2012 this year, which is stupid).
Fact: U13 starts at 23 players, look it up the ECNL website.
U14 has 22 and so on…
It’s a money grab scheme.

Isn't FVU just Brave II at the management level? We are a Bethesda family now that NM-ML-BL are here we heard some drama that they were supposed to stay at FVU but then revoked. Some internal fighting but don't know details.
