You mean congrats to Mclean. How may of those girls are from Vienna, or BRYC, or any of the 6 other feeder clubs in FVU?!?! FVU's only hope is that they can steal kids from other clubs whose parents chase th ECNL badge. Brave 2.0 is producing zero without FOMO.

Well done to the FVU 2013 girls for their top of table finish for the MA U13s. Undefeated to this point with two games remaining. An impressive feat with or without a Super Arl dad.

Google GA frameworks. You should find what you need.


Thanks!

Again, so short sighted. There is far more money to be made in actual pursuits in these HCOL areas vs. scamming parents for $$$. Does it happen, hell yes, but this is so low on the totem pole.

This theory will be tested next season with a local DMV team application. It’s not a secret anymore.


What does this mean?


It's well known that a certain club has an application in.


If it’s so well known, why not go ahead and name the club?


I have no clue, but people keep spreading this junk about Arlington so maybe? The prior poster just comes off as trying to be the smartest in the room, when they're commenting on a ****ing youth soccer board anonymously and it's just stupid.

I dont think thats it. More likely they're just a troll repeating things nobody can refute. Is it true? Is it not true? Nobody knows, but they can say it to taunt others and be "right".

This is hardly anything to argue over.

BTW, read the book, How to Lie with Statistics.
-It’s easy to do, especially when you can’t cite credible and transparent sources.


It's just good propaganda to hype up OR criticize a league in social media marketing.

Which is why both leagues took down the pages on their sites showing commitrment numbers by year.

GA gains/losses will never be good enough for the agenda people and ECNL losses/gains however small/large they might be are again never enough for the agenda people.

And then you have the iamsoccerdorks of the world posting cherry picked data which the uneducated use to prop up their agendas.


Well said.
