The boys u12 pre ECNL team is about get a complete overhaul at the end of spring. the recruiting (poaching) process has already started . Look for more than a few kids coming over from Arlington as DC united academy players move to there. As well as a few LMVSC coming in too.

So what usually happens to the players already there ? Do they move them down or cut them ?

Usually they are given the option to move down, but, many players tend to either look for other clubs or its pretty common at that age they stop playing competitively at that high of level. It tends to be more of a blow for the parents. They get the reality check that my ds is so elite after all. the boy usually take it ok. While the parents feel embarrassed and left out of the mix.

I think original poster may be BSing. No way the coach would tell him that they are recruiting especially if OP is a parent with kids on the team.

I would agree with that. However that particular team is on the smaller size physically and you can only squeeze so much out of them. This is where you see kids starting to develop both in skill and physically maturing in size. Ive heard the TD over there is hungry to win another national title. The talk has been the current 07s aren't what they feel they need to make a strong push and the need to reload that group.

A true academy will train the entire player pool together and at the end of the week or 2 week time frame name the teams for the upcoming games. and this happen through out the entire year. this develops all players at the same pace and provides for an overall strong program. Instead they chase wins and cater to parents who threaten to leave if not on the A team. it really is a disservice to the kids. but not surprised, as the real goal is to keep the parents paying the money.

Pretty sure you are not talking about the girls program.

Nope I should clarify I am am talking about the boys side. the girls younger group is run great. the coach is fantastic developing them. Ive seen the girls coach at various tournaments over the past years and he does a great job connecting with the girls and knows the game.

The girls head coach this year covers 8 - 9 teams as head coach, brought on many parents to assist as coaches. Fees have increased. Only a matter of time.
