Fair summation of last year and the past influence of CW. However the past few years have been an administrative nightmare. Families gave them some leeway but after 2 years of poor management many families are moving on. The 13s will be good. 12s will take a small step back. 11s and up will take major steps back.
This is true, except I think 12s will get hit a little harder than anticipated.
12s will be fine. Only team that will compete with them is VDA.
That team is about to drop 50-60% of the goals scored with their losses to other teams. They won’t be hanging out with Wilmington but they also won’t be looking at playoffs next year.
You must have FVU confused with ARL

That would be a huge disappointment if the 12's (U15) do not make the playoffs next year. If that does happen I could see movement to the 13's (U14) for a few eligible players .

I predict the FVU 12s will finish 3rd at best behind Arlington and VDA.

This is true for next year. I’m guessing FVU also falls behind VRSC, McLean and Beach at the 2011/U16 age group.
Not sure what you're basing this prediction on, since both of those teams will have some changes.
