Actually not, my friend. Think what you want. The only age group devastated by 2004 DA in Washington is 2004...those teams are playing B-/C+ teams from Crossfire and the others who have 25 players in their pool. The 2005's are playing "A"...

Check out the 2005 count (if we're going to fact check Donald/Hillary):

Crossfire's 2004 DA team (x1):

Interesting.

So it sounds like the quality is down for the 2004 age group in non-DA leagues??? It appears from the DA site that the only state from NWCL at 2004 age group that doesn't have clubs with a DA status is Idaho. http://www.ussoccerda.com/2016-u-12-club-map

The event standings show the Idaho Rush as the top team in the tournament at that age group after group play and that adds up. Which also means that Nevada, Arizona, and Utah must have some good 2004 teams for a state association type team to play with.

Words from someone who:

a) son did not make the roster
b) best player's on son's team left son's club for ADF

The program has been good. The coach of the 05s is fantastic. The boys are all adorable and the families are really nice. Nothing more to say about this group of ten and eleven year olds other than they all seem really happy.

None of the above!
ADF's policy is not development. It is to hold private lessons with players. They will get some talented athletes sign up to the nonsense they offer and then they will gradually convince the player to join their club. They will not build a team or club culture. They do not know how to do that. My personal opinion on that development structure falls into the category of what I believe everything to be wrong with soccer in USA. My son has been offered to play for the 06's on numerous occasions but we refuse to go there. I want a mentor for my son that understands life lessons as well as soccer and in my opinion those guys don't know either.

this is valid. there are many people inside the club that wish this was the case as well, but the top down message is consistently clear...wining (and winning alone) defines success.

So you are an 06 dad who paid for private technical training with ADF and now your trolling the 05 Boys thread putting them down. Strange. I guess that makes you an expert on the inner workings of the club... *joking*.. it means you know absolutely nothing about the club, and absolutely ZERO about the 05 team there. I know a lot of kids have to attend the ADF academy for technical training because their own clubs do not offer that... which is sad... but good for you for going to the extra expense of getting that for your son.

I thought that the 2005s won't ever feel the effects of DA because next year it will actually be a true "U12" which will then have 05s skipped and 06s in..... therefore with the 05s, we actually see the cream of the crop at tournaments like NWCL, Surf Cup, etc....
No?

Rumor is that WT also put all their best 05's in DA...and the Copa Red team is a makeup of Red and White team from last year.

That is just a rumor. Westside has it's top 05's playing on their copa team.

WT lost a couple 05s to other teams and also lost a lot of 04s from their Cops of last year, but their DA is made up of their 04s.

I wonder why 04s lost so many good players.. and to who? Explains why they have only won one game in the DA so far. They are doing well in OYSA though.. so is DA the "b" or "White" team of WT 04s?

Odd only 12 when they could have up to 14...probably not their top 12 in the 04 age group..

What is the difference between U12 Premier Green and Premier White?
Capital and Washington are dominant in White where in Green it seems the teams are battling every week for results.

Ummmmm, 4H and IFC doesn't even belong in the top division. Who is the idiot that approved them?
