Sensing some strong bias here.
The PP was actually being kind. It was 3-0 and NVA had a bad injury. Could have been 4-0 but for a questionable offsides call. NVA took there foot off the gas which they need to learn not to do.

I agree Union does not have enough speed and athletes to compete. The speed of play is way too slow. You can clearly see our girls are fighting for their positions (DB not kidding around with this). Union is too comfortable as everyone gets to play. Burying slow players in key postions - the attack and the midfield. The players in attack do not have the speed to take anyone on (looking to pass even in a situation where there is one v one). Same case as the midfield can't stop anyone as they are too slow. They really do not have anyone in the midfield that can defend at this fast pace. They do not have any real defensive midfielders. Leaving it up to the back three. Who are trying but its too much pressure on them. They have two attack players (one just came back from injury) that are good and another defender that is good and fast but not enough to compete at this level. With the talent they have, the 3 back formation will be a disaster. Only works when you have a very strong attack and midfield which they are lacking. They need to switch to a 4 back to make it through the season.
This is spot on analysis, I would surprised if this was actually a parent
This is spot on! If you saw their games this weekend, you would see that everyone gets the same amount of playing time. The coach does not play to win. It will be hard for them to keep that up when it comes to the tough teams. They will lose for sure.
Maybe they were all getting playtime because the game werent' as competitive and they were already had a few goals.
agreed. FVU 2010's will be just fine this year. The team has top talent for this area.
But one of your top players a US YNT ID level talent left for another local club, so what area are you referring to?

Some of these score lines show huge disparity in the mid atlantic. Some of these NC teams appear really weak.
Agree.
7 strong clubs (4*NOVA, Richmond, CSA, NC Courage)
5 weak clubs, in order of strength (Wilmington, NC Fusion, Charlotte Ind, Beach, NCFC)
Most club v club match ups were sweeps or almost sweeps.
Terrible to have to spend multiple weekends away for mediocre competition at ages U13/14 for girls. NC fusion, Charlotte Ind., Wilmington, and NCFC.
