While DCE, NL, and Madlax are all really good clubs, I never thought to move. One the drive is not worth it with VLC in the back yard. VLC kids were always more blue collar. More public school kids with some private school but had a humble attitude. Many did not want the culture of a Madlax. If you can play it does not matter which club you play for you can get recruited if that is the goal. It seems like the newer parents or families from CAV must be a different culture. Old VLC would turn away a toxic family. The formula worked they should stick with what works.
This was the culture it used to be and it was amazing! You hit the nail on the head with the CAV culture changing it. They do not have a 2027 team and the 2028 and 2029 teams are having issues also with "new" management. So this is not the same VLC team.....

Cab (like almost everyone else) does not give a sh*t about VLC. Seriously, no one wants those kids.
WTF? I don't care who you are, this comment, directed at CHILDREN, is just plain mean. Cut it out.

Harsh comment on the kids...
The problem is exactly what was said above.... The Cavs management that took over VLC...

And Cab has more than enough of his own problems at the moment.

Promises promises. This club is on the way out. They are all Cavs run by the same Cavs people with the same Cavs dad coaches. VLC was run by a group that weren't dads and were paid coaches. The VLC of today is the old Cavs under a new name. They are not competitive and so many of their teams are falling apart at the seams. Look at how many kids have dropped already or will be dropping in a few weeks. VLC tried to save itself by merging with Cavs, all it did was prolong its death.

Heard Dico is covering the 29s. They are a highly ranked team. Great coach coming in to lead those boys for the next few years seems promising.

Major shake ups on the 28s and 29s teams. Is this VLC long comming collapse? If so where to current boys jump True? Team Virginia (FKA Hammers)?

I’m sure it has nothing to do with getting kicked out of hoco for playing a high school goalie in a middle school game.

Cavs was on it's last leg before joining VLC and nothing has changed. All the move did was tarnish VLC's reputation. Sad.

Head coach left to move. Vlc management didn’t have a plan in place to replace him and finally a temp coach had to cobble together the team for spring and summer. By that time the team was falling apart and not enough kids showed up to field a team for tryouts. Vlc’s notion of not recruiting/advertising and having players refer other players was one of the downfalls once tryouts occurred.

While vlc had no dad coaches and stayed away from daddy ball, the new vlc has dad coaches and daddy ball. They are also kids who have played together so any new players have to break into that social circle somewhat. 29 and 28 teams are a mess. It’s too bad, vlc used to be a good option but not so much anymore. They mismanaged the 27 team falling apart and are now doing the same with the younger teams like the 28s and 29s. Not the best investment of money for the coaching or improving. Good investment if you just want to play year round and have friends on the team.
What happened with 27 team - coach related or parent/player related?
There is a specific thread about the 2027 VLC issues from last summer. Just search for it.
