Laughable to even compare PDA with a dumpster fire garbage club like MatchFit....
Not with either club, but there is no comparison PDA is the top club in the area. Period. I live to far for my kid to play at PDA but if I could and if her dream was to play college soccer I would take her to PDA - no contest. Not to disparage any other club, but PDA’s track record really does speak for itself, and it has for a long time. I’ve had kids at the ECNL level since it’s inception and PDA has always been on top. It is what it is.

Updates: New lights being installed at the Raper residence next week. Also they are upgrading the cupcakes with new and improved ingredients to make the girls faster. Not sure who the agility guy is? Is he new to MFA
Not sure who the agility guy is. I believe I saw a post beginning of the year or so announcing his arrival but thats it. Probably another MFA gimmick

Its hard to argue with the results.
So why do some kids drive past PDA to play for MFA?

Exactly, and what are those results?
PDA white teams not being competitive (because they don’t really develop)
PDA blue teams not seeing any competition (unless they play outside of ECNL or in playoffs).
1/3 of pda blue team ends up at Rutgers on a 1/4 scholarship.
It just seems that best pathway is to stay at a club that develops players, and then eventually switch to PDA or MF where your kid can be showcased at u16. Plus now you have alternatives in the area, which is awesome.
So why do some kids drive past PDA to play for MFA?
They drive past PDA because they can't make PDA! MFA is made up PDA & STA- 2nd/ 3rd team players . When they are able to make those PDA Teams they leave . And lets not kid ourselves- They are able to make those PDA teams after a few years on MFA due to outside/ private training, not MFA training. #dumpsterfire Those kids would be better off on PDA 3rd team than on MFA 1st teams, and soon they learn that and they all leave.
PDA’s coaches are not even close to the level of MR quality, expertise and care for the players. The girls love her! Why doesn’t PDA have more qualified women coaches, especially with all the former PDA and Rutgers players and alumni out there? Makes you wonder about the opportunities (or lack thereof) they offer to women....

Relax. MFA just hired her 6 months ago. MR will be out soon.

Hopefully the future is brighter than the lights on the generators at MFA

Well said Meredith. You should speak with PDA, I think they would hire you on the spot
