You’re not going to get any good information here. I would just reach out to each club and attend a training session.

SYC appears to be very strong at the younger ages, they have a college advisor, but it doesn't appear too many girls go off to play D1 at all so far.
D1 focused girls have moved to McLean, Arlington and VDA.
The Technical Director and Girl’s Academy Director at Alexandria are two of the better coaches in the area. Just not sure of their college connections.
They have a pretty weak girls program to show for it too.

McLean? You can’t be serious.
Serious as a heart attack. That was the reason the parents cited for moving there @ u12.
Maybe when they were still paired up with Union. After the split they basically got the leftovers that couldn't make Union or other squads. Their 2013 team has been getting smoked by everyone.

Union is definitely not it. The club has existed for 2 years, and just went through another shake-up. It’s so desparate it’s partnered with 6 mediocre lower level clubs for field space. The coaching is awful. The current club has NO track record and is sliding backwards fast. Watch as the talent continues to leave.
PP isn’t asking what the best u13 team is. They’re asking about the clubs in the area. The best u13 team doesn’t necessarily end up being the best u16 team in the area.
Oh you have so much to learn, Marv.
That’s not their track record but I guess we will see.
