Thank your sharing. I will review this thread on the LMVSC Townhall and make an informed decision today. I may need to call my credit card company as well because the 1st payment is scheduled to be drafted today. I am less worried about my deposit.

I don't think we can blame the lmvsc issue on a replacement team that is filling in for our lack of teams. The club recently sent out links for uniform orders and informed by the supplier the uniforms will not be ready until late September due to their current workload. When we play in 2 weeks, it looks like we will have the same uniform problem so will they cancel these games too? Administratively, lmvsc is just way behind and I don't see how I will make it through this year with all the last minute information, schedules (or lack of) and all the uninformed changes.

I guess we should be happy with paying for an administration that feels they can take our money, not give us the product they have promised, change coaches and not seem to respect the family schedules. Game cancellations are one thing but we have had a lot of practices that are changed last minute, coach not showing up so practice combined with other teams and scrimmages added or time changed because of field scheduling.

Are other clubs having the same issues we are experiencing or are the problems only at lmvsc? I know it is late in the process but would like to consider changing clubs if I can cancel my uniform order.

Sorry for venting but we are new to the club and did not have these many problems before arriving.


Maybe you should reach out to one of the replacement teams!

also, no it's not too late. you can leave, they'll pressure you but you can leave. if your child is serious about soccer or maybe will be, leave.

plenty of new players to our club just wore a "shirt color" and the refs were fine with it. lmvsc didn't play alexandria because they don't have enough teams and they're at risk of losing ccl. it's not even "at risk", it's going to happen. since you're new to lmvsc here's a historical breakdown:

they were really good and had lots of teams in all age groups and genders. leadership treated staff and coaches poorly, so they left last year. a ton of players left, and this season a ton more players left. this will continue until lmvsc levels off around the middle divisions of ncsl, competitive to third teams at alexandria, arlington, syc, etc.

That sucks. I was actually just wondering if the issue was related to lack of players or admin logistics. For the PP I would recommend you look at LMVSC townhall thread. I think more lmvcs parents are in there and some parents that defected. We left because I though the club was taking the wrong turn in training and planning etc. They have in the past been better with logistics but with the shuffle of coaches etc it looks like they have some additional pain points. Sucks to hear...2yrs ago they have some strong teams and administration

Most clubs pushed the start to 9/12 weekend so only a few played this weekend...


It was LMVSC that had issues. LMVSC was scheduled to play Alexandria but bailed out.

You should see grocery stores and parking lots 😬


I pointed it out b/c people asked about CCL games this weekend. the league was very clear about the rules so i highlighted they were not consistently followed. I am not aware of any rules governing the grocery stores or parking lots....

So which clubs played against each other in NOVA? Looks like Arlington, Herndon, Loudoun, SYC and SYA.

Kids were playing the beautiful game. It was amazing.


And LS got drilled as per usual.


I take it that means LS lost a lot of CCL games?


They're all facade = social media.

Do you see anything on their accounts? No? You found your answer.

Loudoun Soccer = LS = Losing Squads


I looked at Standings for 3 age groups. Of the random ones I looked at, I saw Lodoun tied one and won 2


''of the random ones I looked'' - i.e. i looked specifically the ones that did not lose. Staffer detected!


Nope, we are with another club. I have no dog in your (very odd) fight. I looked at 07 girls and boys (since that is the age of my kid, who’s CCL season starts on the 13th) and I think 06 girls or boys. You are a very weird guy or gal....
