    Every single D1 (and probably the D2s) in CT are better teams including FU and SHU.

      They all chicken out? You know FSA and CFC are in the same league right?

        Yes, that was a really uninformed statement that poster made. It’s amazing how little some people know on this site.

          And neither will play anyone in state close to them that is an another league for fear of losing .... Cripes do I have to spell everything out including the obvious, captain (or should I call you Gilligan, skipper)?

              No they can - even before DA blew up USSF gave permission for scrimmages. Non DA events were ok with permission. Not much time in their schedules though.

              FSA and CFC obviously play each other. Some teams win over others but generally CFC does somewhat better head to head and against same competition

                To the OPs point; you said the big three. Two of the so called big 3 already play each other. So what you said was incorrect.

                        Most won't even play in college!

                        The 2007 girls thread tells the story. A strong percentage of those girls will be on the field hockey and cross country teams in two years. Everyone thinks they have a star until they are on the JV squad sophomore year.

                          Can someone explain to me why the CFC United graduating team is so special and why that can't be the case at lease every few years?

                          Clearly they must have a few really good players but it's an 11 player game

                            It was one of the only years up until that point that they truly replaced many of their Arsenal players with outsiders.

                              The core of that team were kids that only played for CFC in their youth soccer career.

                              The backstory to that that team is that parent recruiting is behind their success. They basically picked off every good player in the state with the idea of making a super team to compete on the larger stage. Obviously not every player (family) wanted to get involved but the majority did. They had a few Top 10 ECNL finishes and basically the entire roster got recruited by D1 programs. Realistically not something we'll see again in CT.

                              Too many mercenary parents changing clubs every year, driving to Mass and NY to chase it. There's enough talent in CT in to compete regionally and nationally just can't be spread out on three teams.

                                ^ definitely part of it, but also some years theres just luck of the draw with more or less talent out there. The 03 21s are a contrast; all three clubs struggle with that age.
