Very generous. “Bottom of the heap” is more accurate.

Are you debating about how to characterize a pay to play youth soccer conference? What is the point y’all trying to make? Someday you will realize just how meaningless this stuff really is. Vibes of middle school.


I was characterizing where CISC stood in ECNL MA before moving to GA. But yes, this is a board that mostly discusses “pay to play” youth soccer.

If it weren’t “pay to play” then would you be comfortable discussing CISC GA success? Do you only talk MLS Academy soccer? Not MLSNext “pay to play” but MLS Academy.

No I still wouldn’t be discussing CISC GA success because it’s kids soccer. It’s weird to discuss kids sports as if they were professionals. Kids sports are an enrichment activity we pay to enroll our kids and keep them busy. Like piano lessons and SAT prep. Imagine if we talked about different SAT prep businesses like we do soccer clubs, which ones had the best college acceptances because they developed those kids, made a big deal when a kid switched from one SAT prep business to another, called another SAT prep business trash because they were only interested in profits. Sounds silly doesn’t it?


This forum exists to talk about youth soccer. You don’t have to be here. Did you type that or dictate it to the nanny?

There are still plenty of useful things that could and are discussed here. Age group changes, recommendations, tournament info. Genuine helpful stuff. I want more of that and less trash talk and silly stuff. It would make this place a lot better.


Discussing the discrepancy in levels of leagues is helpful. CISC was a bottom feeding ECNL club and are now the best club in their GA division.

This is helpful information for parents of young players.

The same type of people who are trolls, holier than thous, and think everything other than what they want/do is trash, and etc are on DCUM discussing SAT and piano lessons. Have a look through the College and University threads sometime.

It's similar to here except every kid isn't a 12 year old world class player they are geniuses and anything other than the best Ivy League schools (not the "bad" ones) or the finest European institutions of higher learning are beneath them and their child.

This whole thread is basically mean girls. VRSC is trash, NVA = LD, LD is trash. LD coaches are only after money/ bad soccer managers. VRSC is a for profit/ VRSC coaches are womanizers and bad coaches…. This whole thread is basically the trashy housewives of Loudoun. Keep it up- hysterical.

Champions Cup is GA does not mean the same as Champions League (playoffs) in ECNL. GA Champions Cup are the best performing *clubs* from the previous season. Basically the club with the most teams finishing in top 5 in their conference the prior season.

By the way, there is a clear advantage in GA if your team plays in Champions Cup because you get to showcase at the best attended events. Even if the team isn’t good as long as the club is good you will be better off.


Rev should enjoy this year then…ain’t making it back there for a while…

This is where it stands right now for next year’s champions cup clubs. Top two clubs will represent mid atlantic south

Charlotte Independence - 19pts
VRSC and SYC - 12 pts
McLean - 10 pts
NVA and Charlotte Dev Academy - 9 pts
Wake FC - 8 pts
Triangle United - 4 pts
Alexandria - 3 pts

Likely Charlotte Independence and either VRSC/SYC/McLean


Funny how VRSC is actually NOT in any position to shut people up despite all that hype


What hype? I don’t remember any hype for VRSC, lol. I only remember SYC and NVA spreading hype. Regardless, it’s a crap division with a former middle of the road ECNL Club with the most points. Jokes on you.

No worries - I know the main focus of this forum is the DC area, but many of us from other regions have come along with the national threads. I was just shocked the north teams were at the top of almost every single flight.
