When our fav TD and Coach invites their fav departing NVA 2011 to an NVA 09 showcase instead of 2011 that are staying….. it doesn’t make parents or DDs happy. Word is out… and you may end up losing more players to MD ECNL/Any Ga club if folks are pissed enough. Def seems weird to those who have been here for a while. Keep up the good work.

Don’t be mad because your DD isn’t good enough to play ECNL. Have fun in GA! LOL

lol. These parents. College coaches don’t look at the league name or badge. Keep chasing the badge, it does not mean a thing in recruitment. You have better chances of getting recruited as an impact player than a bench warmer. Be it ECNL or GA. Look for a team with a good coach and an environment where your kid gets challenged constantly and get opportunities to develop. The badge does not matter.

unfortunately this is not true. ECNL had locked down college pathway. However within 2-3 years its going to be MSLN and GA. Boys side is what drives it all, and ECNL has been decimated.

This is a pipe dream because no girl parent of a U-14 or higher is willing to be the guinea pig on college recruiting from GA. So it’s up to the U-14 girls to jump ship to GA - and guess what - those parents won’t be willing either and so on and so forth. All NVA girls jumping ship to ECNL clubs if they can for this reason. If GA is going to take over it will be from the current U-11 parents …which means any take over is at least 5 years away of ever.

Again, you are not getting the point. U14/U15, it is development that matters. If you are not an impact player in an ECNL team or any team, forget it. Jumping ship to ride the bench is not a good solution because the player development takes a hit. College Coaches look at the impact player who is going to help their team, not badges. An impact player in a non GA or ECNL team with the required skills will get recruited over a bench rider in either league. How will a kid play in a 30 player roster in VDA for example? Keep chasing badges. Not good.

Which VDA team has 30 players?

How can NVA not let kids leaving go to Nationals with their new club because they are still a part of NVA (even though all activities were cancelled for them), but then you complain they are still being invited to Showcases. It is all petty petty petty. But the kids cut out of practices didn’t complain because they are good kids who like their teammates and wish them the best. Same with the parents leaving. If only you could uphold that standard too. Don’t like the fall coach, complain to the league, don’t like the new coach, complain to this forum, don’t think it is fair kids on the team still get opportunities, complain. Did you ever think that your comments on this kid’s parents are rich given your helicopter parent actions. I do.

oh chile stop. Dont play the victim card. Transparency. RP and PL are in charge of whats left of that team as well as the 2011s. They are simply carrying on the nonsense that went on during the season from the non transparent captains bands to the ID callups that all the Parents cried over except for the ones who should have had them. And if this is who I think it is apparently you are still the shadow TM so why not make an announcement in the chats about the opportunity. Especially now that we are finding it its more than one girl lol. Goodness no wonder parents pulled out and ate the deposits. Granted you are just doing what u want for your kids exposure, its says a lot to the Families hanging bk. Maybe we got it wrong and should have made drives to md. Loudoun is looking better and better between the two and that makes no sense.

Transparency…. Will make or break whats left of this club. But who am i kidding. This is dmv soccer. Ughhhh

Wouldn't NVA have to agree or did those parents push ECNL to force it? Just seems odd to be petty end of season yet they allowed a player to move to a rival club mid season.
