Stop


Actually, they were playing with new formations. They switched at halftime as the club is trying out some new stuff. Girls are adjusting and some are having more trouble than others.


And Richmond wasn't doing the same?


No, same formation throughout the game, same players in the same positions. RU has played the same style game since my DD was playing them as "strikers" at U12.


So Bobby knew their formations and tried to adjust his formations for success. Got It.

NPL is not playing pre-season!!!!

The NPL games were sanctioned league games. There are standings and everything.

Two things happened.

FCV DA teams played in scrimmages. Scrimmages are pre-season.

FCV NPL teams played in league games over the weekend. Those scores are posted and the standings count. NOT PRE-Season.


They count towards a big nothing burger.

Nobody except parents and players of NPL follow NPL.


The future DA team age groups in NPL matters.


no, not really. things change so much from the U10/U11/U12 and onwards. doesnt mean much in the grand scheme of things. OH SHIT- FCV U10 lost to richmond! They have no chance when they get to DA!!! gtfo


This! AND dozens of outside players come to be a part of the DA. Just a fact.

NPL is what it is. A pay for play "Travel" system funding coaches.


Agree...DA & ECNL coaches hold clinics, camps, run futsal and "coach" the lower level leagues for money. I've seen the DA coaches basically talking and hanging out during the NPL team practices. Not really coaching. Just another revenue stream.

That argument worked 4+ years ago when there were not 3 DA and 4 ECNL clubs in NOVA but teams more than ever have to dance with who they brought. The Loudoun 07 team stayed in tact moving forward to ECNL. Expect that going forward. So posting -20 goal differential over a single weekend in future DA age groups says they have their work cut out for them moving forward.
