Again, so overblown.

Most LS parents are clueless about all things soccer, so not that surprising.

Having boys and girls, many parents who only have boys have never heard of FCV, which makes sense because it’s a small club with mostly girls’ teams. It doesn’t have much of a presence on the boys’ side. FCV is a pretty niche club.

It really isn’t overblown. There’s history between them too and alleged stabs in the back when DA didn’t exist and an ECNL alliance was formed.

The main issue LS has is that if FCV were awarded an ECNL spot Loudoun Club would cease to exist. The numbers in college and national team placement do not lie.

I know I can speak on the subject with kids in both programs. (Loudoun child stays because of friends - FCV child does not leave due to high soccer aspirations in the future)

Yes, but that’s on the girls side only. You seem to keep missing that point. Without FCV girls GA teams, FCV would be a $h1t stain like ODFC or Sterling. Wake up darling.

FCV girls will need ECNL eventually

Oddly for college placement they don’t need ECNL however for college success and preparation they DO need ECNL. A large number of FCV girls go to good soccer schools and ride the bench and quit after a year or two. Many aren’t prepared for the level of competition even within their own team.

The girls at FCV are very good but succumb to weakness of the GA. The level of competition simply does not prepare them for the next level. Every team could have great highlights vs Sporting Delaware and Metro but show me girls that have amazing clips vs top ECNL teams like PDA, SoCal, Solar etc and those are the legit long term prospects.

*obviously there are exceptions to those comments but largely, I’m right

Top boys in Loudoun County go to VDA or Arlington or Bethesda or anywhere else really.

The boys post above ensures that FCV will never get into ecnl. So it’s a non issue for LS

Anonymous wrote:The whole Loudoun vs. FCV slap fight is such nonsense. There are so many "split families" - in my DD's age group, there is at least three families with one kid playing for FCV and a sibling playing for Loudoun.

Yes, there are a considerable number of kids who left Loudoun for FCV. But the whole dynamic and hatred is way overblown.

This is so true. I also know of many split families. It has nothing to do with the club leadership or which league they play in, and everything to do with the team makeup at a particular age group, sometimes specific coaches and player personalties. The rivalry is overblown. Frankly I think the competition in the same market is heathy.

The issue is that they pull from the same geography for players. Hence the rivalry. When fcv moves, it won’t be an issue. Expect the fcv machine to rip into bryc and vda and maybe arlington
