You added strong players? LMFAO You added a midfielder that sat on our bench, hope she helps you. You can practice 7 days a week doesn't help some of the players that wouldn't make our team. Don't worry we will get it done well it counts.

That is very big of you putting down 16 year old girls specifically on this thread, you should be proud. But besides her they added 3 very very good players who could start and see significant time anywhere. You do not know everything. And contrary to your warped perception, the proper training does make one better. You will see. If your showing in the MPS tourney's bottom division (one team was ranked 210 in region 1 and beat you) then it looks like you are in for a very, I mean very long season. Maybe after all your training, opps I forgot you don't need it you may be able to beat TW B team.

I'd be interested in your philosophy of player development!

This is coming very close to actually naming a kid. WAY OVER THE LINE.

Little late at this stage, don't you think? Let's see how you do in sub-reg. We have been playing there for years now. It's not tw has the best showing in tournaments either.

I think they will do just fine

I thought this thread was about girls spring rankings, not a petty dispute between 2 particular teams. Maybe you know something I dont, Bruno or TW going to World Cup, or everyone getting full D1 scholarships? Or earning thier living playng soccer? Maybe you should be focused on development and whether the athletes from these teams are having a positive experience. Maybe what one coach couldnt get out of particular player another could. I looked at the Northeast Sub Regional brackets for both teams and given the level of competition doubt that either will finish top of thier groups. Good luck to both of you!

Ok so I took a second look at the bracket and here is what I got.

Bayside was a clear #1 they just finished an ok season in the blue division (1st D) and were champions at Stars Cup they are also ranked 1st by got soccer.

Black Watch had a similar season in the green division (2nd D) below bayside they were also finalist at Nashua in the top division and they are ranked 2nd by got soccer.

Lusitana was in the lowest division (3rd D) of the 3 and had a very good year but were unable to promote themselves to that top tier. Their tournament history is not the greatest I know they won a tournament on the cape but they played 2 town teams.

So here is my problem with indoor all these teams play 11v11 on a 105yrd x 60yrd field then you stick them on a 70yrd x 30yrd field (at best) play 7v7 with no offside and people want to compare results. To me this isn’t a fear way to rank. No ranking site uses indoor as part of its criteria not saying I wouldn’t but Lusitana and BWP play again this week let’s see how that game goes and the playoffs. If Lusitana can beat them convincingly again and win the league then I think they play their way into the #2 spot. If you beat a team 3 times whether it is 7v7 or 11v11 you’re the better team 1 win in that setting is not enough for me. Ask JB if they are what you say they are it will show up in future rankings look at Boys RISC.

Ok I think Lusitana is #2 seeing how BWP lost to Bayside U11.

So we are very concerned about U11 rankings based on indoor play?

10 year old girls - In this genre you shouldn't even be keeping score.

It's a fun fast practice tool. Nothing more.

To you, maybe. But understand that not everyone agrees with you. And disagreeing with you doesn't make those parents monsters, either.

Let your club and coach keep telling you that to down play the fact that they lost to a U11 team. Keep drinking that kool Aid Bayside U12 are going to blast you! Is lusitana going to allow teams to enter State Cup this year I would like to see that U12 team play.

U-10 thru u-12 should only be about development. They should be perfecting their 1st touch, vision of the field and everything technical. DO NOT WORRY ABOUT WINNING! At U-13 should be winning. At u14-U15 the player should be on the best team possible and going to tournaments. At U-16 and above should only be about winning and about improving the team and players not development. At this stage you can fine tune but it is what it is.
So, u-10,U11, u12 make sure your player is getting great training. It should include foot skills and learning at a fast pace. Just develop your player. It does not matter how many games they won at 10,11,12 years old. I wish someone told me that when were only looking at the win column.

Wake up! If your daughter wants to play in college make sure she is getting the skills now. Colleges don't care what your daughter did before u15. If you only care about winning you will end up disappointed. Get skills and get on a great u15 team and then get worked up about winning.

"you should", "it should" "you should".....you sound like my mother-in-law.

Thanks for the unsolicited advice. But youth soccer is not "one size fits all". Different families are looking for different things.
