Ok so NVA and McLean teams are set. Arlington and VDA most likely. How about syc? That’s probably the last super strong team in the area unless you want to drive to Bethesda.

I assume the pre-GA 2014 teams playing up 11v11 this year probably stay fairly intact when they become GA? What 2014s will join FVU? What 2014s become NVA?
loudoun will go NVA, first team. Second team stays loudoun with maybe a few newbies. FVU will have 4-6 valor and rest from everywhere else, maybe some 2013s come down. I’ve been surprised by how many have kids who will get recalibrated and push out kids who have been with the first team ie 2013s taking 2014 spots. This is going to get crazy real fast. People gonna be pissed.


Definitely will be interesting to see what happens with FVU and Valor. If FVU only gets a few Valor players, then neither team will be strong. But Valor could stay a strong RL team.


I thought all the McLean teams were moving to Fairfax Union. Last year, the entire McLean 2013 team moved there. Are they planning to do that again this year?
No. McLean gave offers to most of them to stay. Looks like McLean learned from their mistake last year.


If McLean has GA, why would their players leave their home practice fields for the uncertainty of FVU? The McLean coach seems good. Why would they leave?
They aren’t. They are staying.


And FVU will probably want a roster of 16 plus?


Who carries a roster of less than 16?


No one

Their current 2014 team already has 16 players, so does that mean there are not many spots for new players? How many players are they planning to roster for U13 next year 18-20?
Mclean? Correct, they are already set. Same as NVA.

Usually 18+ for FVU. Sounds like you are a parent working through the math. Yes, they need kids and no, they won’t be very good next year.

Considering McLean locked in most of the 2014s, that is their only option unless there are an influx of RL kids coming down or random kids not from the alliance. Outlook doesn’t look good for fvu.


FVU will be an easy entry for badge chasers this year. Who is coaching?


Word around town is that CW is coaching 2014 FVU next year and MV is coaching 2013. I am not in the club. Have there been any discussions on FVU slate yet?
