I hadn't heard this. But it's not surprising. They've been in business for several years at this point and appear to have failed to produce a competitive program even at the mid level.


They have increased the number of teams every year. Teams full of paying players. I don't about you but that would be a successful growing business. How much the teams win is secondary.


Sure Jan. That’s why their 05 and 06 girls are about to disappear (we left last week due to unpromised claims like “having a full competitive team”)

Like any club they have good teams and bad teams.

This area has a very weird obsession with wanting to see new clubs fail.


What is considered Barca's best team(s)?


2003 boys blue aren't bad
2004 boys yellow is good
2006 boys yellow is good
2010 boys blue isn't bad
2011 boys garnet isn't bad

2004 girls blue isn't bad

As much shade you wanna throw at them they still don’t steal from you and ask you to call it a donation. Try not to laugh tho.

Not really… there is only one group of people actively working to shut down any other “option”. Shouldn’t be hard for you to figure out who.

It's not like the revenue from Barca is going to magically be replaced instantly. Evergreen was not struggling before which is why they were sold. How long can Revolution operate at a loss? They will be able to negotiate a deal with Revolution to use fields.


How many clubs rent fields and practice at Loudoun Soccer park?


Not a valid comparison. Loudoun Soccer park only has 2 fields. Sportsplex has 4 fields and a two level stadium and a restaurant. Loudoun Soccer also has way more teams than VA Revolution so the fields are always in use.


Loudoun are the only club using Loudoun soccer park


Yet they actively campaign within parks n rec to hoard more fields while blocking other clubs from usage… stewardship they call it. Rep the red.

A reliable source has informed that Loudoun Soccer, Revolution and the county have agreed to close out Barka from getting ANY field space in Loudoun County for next year. They might be moving south if they want field space.


Who’s that source?


Random DCUM poster guy. (aka there is no source)
