Both in EDP. SYC and Loudoun both in EDP too so most of the top non ECNL teams from VA are there now.
NCSL is definitely a notch (or 3 down). As most noted - the ECNL affiliated clubs in VA will play VPSL, the others will largely do EDP for u11 and NAL for u12. The top u11 division of EDP is brutally competitive and none of the teams there (except maybe Potomac) would be challenged in NCSL. VPSL isn’t as deep any more, but Arlington and Richmond are both strong u11 clubs.
đź’Ż U11 EDP 1 is a blast and the peak of the youth experience. Quality competition without excessive travel.
U12, it all goes to đź’©. Everybody is split up into different leagues and different formats.
You’re not kidding. Coppermine, Bethesda, SYC, Alexandria, Loudoun…. Good stuff. When Pipeline and McLean ask to move down you know thats a top shelf group.
Be curious where they all end up next year. Coppermine, Bethesda and Loudoun are likely NAL bound. Don’t know about others.
Mclean Green moved down? Why?
They were one of the top age group clubs in the region at one point.
That ship has sailed on the boys side.
Every Agee group or just the one the OP was dicussing? What’s driving it, lack of a pathway to top tier?
every age group. poor leadership and coaching situation
