Not sure what the other DMV teams do, but many of the Northeast teams practice all year round.
Lol. Vlc staff reads dcum! They just scheduled more practices! Parent who asked for more practices, news flash - your kid either has it or he doesn’t. Blaming the amount of practices, amount of playing time, or assailing coaches won’t change anything.
LOL at the hilariously stupid idea that VLC staff reads, or cares about, or acts upon, the opinions of random idiots on DCUM.

I just don’t understand why you would keep your kid on a team when they don’t get to play. Game time experience is so important for getting better.

With 32 players on this summer’s roster, you could say lots of flocking going on, while some players do get shuffled to play in DMV games (recent 3 losses w 1 tie) while still remaining on Cap roster.Anonymous wrote:+1

Despite this they dominate at the tourneys because they have a huge amount of individual talent. If what you want is solely college recruitment this is the model that seems to work. If you want player development, team chemistry, camaraderie and bonding with your teammate and coaches, true club teams are the best option.

Are they trying to be popular or serve their players/parents? Is it all about PR and marketing? Why would it take posts on dcurbanmom to schedule practices (what were people getting for the club fees anyways?).

Lol. Vlc staff reads dcum! They just scheduled more practices! Parent who asked for more practices, news flash - your kid either has it or he doesn’t. Blaming the amount of practices, amount of playing time, or assailing coaches won’t change anything.
By the way way, Madlax practices only a few times leading up to summer, and BW never practices!
What’s wrong with more practices? It can’t hurt. Even if your son is an all star it will help the team dynamic right?

Not a coaching issue. Dico is as good as it gets.
Agreed, but he does not coach the 2021s.
I have no other experience with other clubs, but for what it’s worth, VLC plays everyone. Every player gets reps and no one sits out unless the are injured. There is a constant rotation - even among the poles and the attack. So the strongest players are not always on the field.
Do other clubs do it this way, or do some of their stars never come out?
