You have only 5 or 7 (PWSI/VSA) players out of what, 20? The chances look better if the player is from a different club.

This I don't understand. These aren't contracted players. There's no incentive to go to another club like VDA unless the player/parents think they will win and compete against the nation's best. It's about 75% VSA/PWSI player on every team, 5 to 7 is laughably low and not even close. The U16 team, which is one of the best on east coast, is 15 out of 20 girls from VSA/PWSI, which include the mid-Atlantic player of the year (VSA origins). When other teams complain about losing good players, ask 'why' are they leaving? You get one shot at this ride to college, if that's your goal, and if girls elsewhere want to drive an hour to practice, it must be THAT good. There is literally no other reason to go to a club unless you think it's going to help and if VDA is that place, then best of luck to them. Why complain other than jealous reaction.

Thought we were discussing the U19 team which has the players leaving to college. Isn’t the ultimate goal of ECNL a path to play in college? Or is the ECNL a pro-league where clubs need to draft players to help the club win in the benefit of its brand name?

So if PWSI/VSA have a good program you VDA should have given priority to these players (U19), if you really cared for the player. Instead you took several players from other club.

The curriculum wasn’t strong until last year. VDA has been rebuilding, it’s simple.

It’s has nothing to with curriculum. WTH.

VDA girls was born four years ago in 2017 with the emergence of the Girls Development Academy. Until that time, they lost all their players to FCV, McLean and or BRYC.

Read that agin. Four years ago. That means that the current 04/03 team were rising 8th and 9th graders at the time.

1. VDA is young.
2. PWSi is a huge organization
3. Less and less kids are leaving for elsewhere causing them to strengthen
4. Slowly becoming a destination club
5. The future is bright

You heard it first from this Coach: the curriculum has nothing to do with VDA success. You're a moron, and no one should go to VDA knowing that they don't put any thought into their development.

Don’t be an internet gangster and stop sounding like a D level coach who just graduated from an overpriced course.

Internet gangster? You caught me, my life has been ruined. Now I've heard everything. I'd rather be a gangster than a puffed-up want tobe upside-down pineapple licker.

Can you explain what you mean when you say VDA does not put any thought into their development?

Go observe a practice to find out.

Not at VDA but this is pretty spot on.

Cracks me up that some loon thinks they changed the "curriculum" last year and now all of sudden the club is good. SMDH

What’s the curriculum at loudon?

If VSA and PWSI can do what Richmond strikers and Richmond kickers have done then VDA will be fantastic.

😂- Not Long ago Richmond was considered one of the weaker clubs in ECNL. Back when courage was CASL and Bethesda was somebody. So maybe I’m dating myself.

VDA has less external pressure then every other NOVA club.

Loudoun - FCV
McLean - Arlington
BRYC - Everybody

You're definitely dating yourself old timer. Your point is valid though, VDA has a geographical advantage over the clubs you mention, but nothing like Richmond enjoys. It has always surprised me that Christian didn't move FCV (pre-STJ) down that way to take advantage of more opportunities for space. Still could I suppose. Enjoy it while it lasts... because nothing lasts in youth soccer.
