If VRSC is going to "steal" all the other top players from other clubs, what does that say about their current players?

Not to burst your bubble, but for VRSC to attract top players from other clubs, they'll have to be able to offer something they're not getting from their current club. Performing relatively well in top level brackets of a early/mid season tournament and being competitive (another way to say we're not as good) with great teams isn't it. People don't typically leave a situation that they're happy in

Dude, stop feeding the trolls. Nobody thinks VRSC is going to steal players.


VRSC’s modus operandi is to steal/buy out competition. First the location, then a director, then the players that came with the director even tho it doesn’t seem like they’re winning as they did at FCV. The real question is, what’s Niko gonna do when the money stops coming in? Can he still convince Jim to fund the operation?


Maybe The St James will buy it from Jim when he's ready to sell

FCV had college placement chops and everyone knew it. If Revolution can replicate that then I think they can attract or keep enough top players to be relevant despite not being in the top league. Placing 2026s and 2027s will be important. We'll see if they can do it or if it was all BP.

Money grab like all other clubs. What’s hilarious tho is seeing VRSC labeling this futsal as ID events… lmao there’s no ID’ing what there is is a hope of conning unsuspected parents into an additional payment plan during winter months. You’ve been warned.

By money grab do you mean a business? Yes, absolutely.

St James has had a futsal program for several years. Everyone makes a team. For a fee you get an indoor winter activity for your kid.

The delusion is strong in this post...there isn't a single top player from other clubs looking at how a team did at WAGS and saying "oh i have to go play over there". The only thing that would move the needed and i mean slightly move the needle is winning a national championship at the middle school or early high school (U13/U14/U15) ages. How many VRSC team will make the GA playoffs and actually have a good showing? anything less than a semi-final/finals appearance wouldn't entice top players to leave their current club.

Top players only leave a team if there is something really wrong. Top players have it good. They get all the playing time. Good treatment from the coach and promotion by the club like nominations to talent ids and social media posts. Nobody risks giving all that up unless there is a compelling reason. Chasing wins is not it.

Most people would view winning games as a large part of competing

People who understand how this works know the scores of these U-little games don't matter. What matters is only how YOUR player is developing. There are as many examples of good player development on losing teams as there are of bad player development on winning teams.


cool. PP said they were competing with the best teams. Losing is a strange simile for competing


How'd your Loudoun girls do, old friend? Oh wait....
