It's not for everyone, some kids just shy away from contact from older/bigger players. It's usually the players that love the sport, or already play with older/bigger players like with their siblings, parents, local pickup, that can be placed in an older age group and still shine.

Their 2005 team is in Finals. 29 goals and only 1 conceded since they started competing this spring. All wins. Premier Cup&Potomac. They can’t get into upper brackets until they keep racking up wins because of Gotsoccer and how we freeze our teams from leagues and tournaments.

Several teams won in VA Beach recently. Older boys ‘01/02 very good record. Friendlies against some top teams- held their own.

Like travel it’s a big place and their training is superb.

Do you want us to go Club by Club and start pointing out every team that did poorly? What a weird post.

Scores tell you nothing about the actual game in development.

I’ve seen both their 01 teams play in person. They are incredible. Anyone that says they are “poor” doesn’t know what they’re talking about and their opinion on things related to the sport should not be trusted.

I saw the ‘05 semi today while waiting for a nephew’s game. Those kids played textbook—they moved beautifully with zero long balls—short quick passes and some kids with incredible footskill—not size. Anything new gets tails wagging and vitriol. You know you are doing well when people start coming on the attack. If we didn’t live in NY I’d sign my kid up.

Anytime you get in an argument with a parent that wants to compare Gotsoccer points, you know you are dealing with an idiot. Let it roll. If they are that worked up they have an agenda.

So....you live in NY, but hang out on a DC board leafing through the soccer threads? LMAO. Hi FCB guy, you aren't fooling anyone. Dealing with idiots, indeed.

Not the OP but this is quickly becoming the default Soccer board for the area.
