Technically poster didn’t say which Friday so could still be correct!
Whoever said Friday was a troll. This is a long term effort that will likely be announced in the new year to early spring time.

Everyone has a pathway. Join practices. Go to ID sessions. If you don’t make it, better off to be on an RL team that’s the top of the club rather than one that’s second fiddle to an NL team at the same club. If you do make it, more power to you.

Agree but the advertised pathway tends to attract stronger players to the RL teams than if there’s no pathway.
There was a pathway with NVA and I think you’d be hard-pressed to find anyone at GFR who noticed a positive impact.
GFR was stronger at least at my child’s age group when they had a “pathway” to NVA. Maybe it was other factors, but something seemed to have happened this past year or two that caused kids to leave. Lack of pathway would not have helped.
Hopefully this upcoming alliance can fix that.

VDA is not NVA. The past is not prologue.
