Those who are left at BRYC are not focused on W/L record clearly. VDA will continue poaching BRYCs best players.

Why in the world would anyone go to a bryc practice tryout? Join the worst performing ecnl club in the nation or go to an better ecnl-r team with better coaching and development for half the cost?

All regional leagues and GA, for that matter, have a few really good teams that win consistently and then the rest that are competitive amongst themselves. If that is a competitive environment where you are developing great, if not, BRYC offers ECNL competition. Join a team where you can grow. I live in NOVA, the money is in the noise...

This post is clearly from the bryc administration. My question to you is with all of the good competitive teams in the area and your hook for bryc is access to ecnl competition, how compelling is that pitch when teams across almost all age groups are getting crushed? How is the club addressing other issues of coaching and talent that parents are clearly posting? I hate driving past bryc to take my DD to practice multiple times a week. If there was confidence that some turnaround is in the works…maybe my DD would consider. Until then, we and others will go elsewhere

No, just a parent that knows the grass isn’t greener. We started in local rec when kids could walk... out grew it. Moved to a local travel team for several years, played in NCSL won a few local low level trnys... out grew it. Development is kids drive, training, coaching, and competition on team and in games. When kids outgrow BRYC, my kids can choose to drive themselves to a practice and I’ll show up for games. My point was that tryouts always available if you bring skil, don’t wait for the cattle call... fascilitate options, kids with drive make good choices.

This makes sense. So I guess, based on recent player movement, at u16 when you outgrow bryc, your DD can drive themselves to vda.

Ahh… the fairweather consumer.

That sounds about right from bryc. It’s the consumers’ fault. Jesus this club is so arrogant.

Former BRYC parent on the girls side under the great BN Regime.

"Great players but seem to get cherry picked every year for promises of glory from bigger clubs It’s frustrating but the coaches, especially U10-U16 are great"

We left for a bigger program, not because of promises - because we got better training, played better competition, and didn't have to suffer losing every game. The BRYC girls coaches on the younger side are all player's parents, and therefore there focus is developing their own kids. It wasn't because my daughter didn't play - she was a starter on bryc and is now a starter on her current team. There is no development and the results speak for themselves. Once they get into ECNL, you see how poorly they were developed at the younger ages.


"It’s a family atmosphere, small and connected"

Exactly, you have family members coaching who aren't even really good coaches. It is a small club, which is why I have no idea why they are in ECNL. They are not even competitive. they should just get demoted to ENCL-R"


"Girls had mixed results last weekend and had hard losses against CESA - another giant club"

Mixed results? Have you checked the scores. They lost every single game except 1.

I did check the results. Were you there? Did you watch the games? Probably not. Most of the games against SCU were competitive and good soccer so shut up and color. CESA matches were hard, very hard. It was a hard weekend, trust us, we know. But it's week 2 for God sakes. Let the kids play and don't worry about what your old club is doing. They are ECNL because they applied for it and was accepted five years ago. And no, they won't be demoted (no one is getting demoted) unless they violate the rules - and they wont. ECNL is growing, not shrinking - for now. BRYC is a good club full of good families and great kids. Being angry at the club is immature. Don't worry about BRYC, you've moved on.
And of course your child had playing time at BRYC and started. That's great. I'm referring to older age groups that are cherry picked, not the younger ages. I'm glad she's enjoying her new club and starting. And I'm happy you've left for bigger club. That suits your family and your player. Leaving was your choice, no need to throw shade. Best wishes to your family. Now move on and be happy.

All true but Arlington went to SC and played the same teams on the opposite day in the same conditions and went 4-3-3 not 1-10-0. That's 15 points vs 3.
