U.S. Under-17 Women’s National Team head coach Albertin Montoya has named the 20-player roster for the 2012 CONCACAF U-17 Women’s Championship to be held in Guatemala City, Guatemala, from May 2-12.

Montoya named his squad after a 10-day training camp at the Olympic Training Center in Chula Vista, Calif., that ended on April 9 with a 0-0 draw against the China U-20 Women’s National Team.

"We feel we are at a very good place right now going into World Cup qualifying," said Montoya. "The team has made a lot of progress in our last three camps, which have been very productive in helping us prepare to head to Guatemala. We’ve had talented players since the beginning of the cycle, but the difference now is the ability of these talented players to play as a team, which makes us very dangerous. We saw this at our most recent camp, which led to three very good performances against quality teams. Qualifying couldn’t have come at a better time for us and the players are excited to showcase their talent at the international level."

The team will now have several weeks off before regrouping to travel to Central America in a quest for one of CONCACAF’s three berths to the 2012 FIFA U-17 Women’s World Cup, which will be held from Sept. 22-Oct. 13 in Azerbaijan.

FC Virginia played Feestate on February 18th and will see them again down in Richmond at the Jefferson Cup. On the 18th the club once again topped their local opponent with a 3-1-1 record and the U14s, U17s, and U18s all winning their matches.

U.S. head coach Albertin Montoya will bring a roster of 18 players for the three matches against older teams as the Americans open play against the French on March 4, face England on March 6 and finish with the Dutch on March 8.

The U-17s will be the third U.S. team to participate in a tournament in La Manga this autumn, following the U.S. U-20s, which won its competition with three straight shutout victories in the second week of February, and the U.S. Under-23 WNT, which will play in La Manga the week before the U-17s.

Stanford had won 101 national championships in its history, but never one in women’s soccer. “Stanford has a tradition of excellence in athletics and academics,” Paul Ratcliffe, Stanford's coach said. “We want to keep that going on the soccer stage.”

That’s what Ratcliffe told his players to remember about Sunday. “I told them they are going to go down in history as the first team to ever win a national championship for women’s soccer at Stanford.”

For three years Stanford had been nearly unbeatable. Three years they never lost a regular season game. The four seniors -- Camille Levin, Teresa Noyola, Lindsay Taylor and Kristy Zurmuhlen -- never lost a home game and advanced to the College Cup four times.

After losing in the semifinal game three years ago, they lost tough 1-0 games in the national finals each of the past two years.

U14s are 3-1-1 with 6 goals for and 4 against
U15s are 4-1-3 with 20 goals for and 16 against
U16s are 2-2-4 with 8 goals for and 11 against
U17s are 6-1-1 with 22 goals for and 4 against
U18s are 3-3-2 with 14 goals for and 13 against

FC Virginia will next be competing in the National Showcase in Sanford Florida December 28, 29, and 30th.

William & Mary became the CAA Champions and were helped by four former FC Virginia players including: Cortlyn Bristol a 2009 graduate from FCV Netforce; and from the class of 2011, FCV Explosion players Jane Aman, Christina Popps, Aly Shaughnessy. Annie Case, a 2009 graduate from FCV Netforce led Stanford to a PAC 12 Championship. In addition, Caitlin Landsman a 2009 graduate and FCV Netforce member led Marist, from the keeper position, to a MAAC Championship, the first in Marist history.

To keep an eye on how these alumni fare in the tournament the 2011 NCAA championship schedule is as follows:

First Round Nov. 11-13
Second/Third Round Nov. 18, 20
Quarterfinals Nov. 25-27
Semifinals (5/7:30 p.m.) Dec. 2
Championship (1 p.m.) Dec. 4

Sport-Off created pink training shirts with the FC Virginia logo which were available for purchase to teams and coaches.

Some teams chose to wear the pink shirt as an alternate jersey for the month and others wore them during warm ups before all their October games. Sport-Off then donated a portion of the the money to the cause. The final donation to the National Breast Cancer Foundation from Sport-Off came to $200.

The U17 ECNL team came away with 2 wins and one loss for the weekend and had 10 goals for and only 2 goals against. They beat both Massapequa and Oceanport SA and lost by one goal to the FC Europa Wild Kickers.

Like the U18s, the U16 ECNL team amassed a 1-1-1 record for the weekend. They competed against NY Rush, Bethesda, and PDA. Improving throughout the weekend, they lost their opening game, tied their second, and came away with a 1-0 victory over PDA on the last day.

The U15, U14, U13, and U12 age groups competed at the Discovery Cup which is held at the Maryland Soccerplex in Boyds, Maryland.

The U15 ECNL team had the weekend off, but the FCV 96 team had a strong showing in the top bracket. They came away with 2 wins and their only loss came to the eventual U15 red division champions. They scored four goals and allowed only one.

The FCV U14 ECNL girls had a very successful weekend and were runners up falling to the MSC Coyotes by a score of 0-3 in the finals. In the preliminary rounds they defeated NJSA 04 Blast and East Meadow Explosion and had a scoreless draw against Penn Legacy.

The top performers for the weekend were the U13 FCV 98, as they were crowned champions in the top division of their age group. Winning in penalty kicks against the NJ Stallions Academy they advanced to the finals. In the finals, they recorded a 2-1 victory to bring home the championship.

FC Virginia 99 competed in the 11v11 portion of the tournament hoping to gain experience as they will soon move to 11 a side play. They played some stiff competition against future ECNL opponent FC Bucks. They capped off their weekend play with a scoreless draw against the Cardiff Chargers.

Rounding everything out for the club were the FC Virginia Boys U11 Fury. The Fury competed in the SAC United Columbus Day Tournament and were runners up in the Premier Division losing to SAC Premier 1 in the finals.



In its third year of existence, the ECNL is already recognized as one of the top girls’ leagues in the country with 66 top youth clubs as members.


The U15s started the day off with a 4-0 victory in the morning. The U16s fought to a 1-1 tie and the U17s turned in the most impressive performance with a 6 goal win over their opponents. Finally, the U18s finished the day off coming out on top 4-0. Unfortunately, the U14 age group was unable to compete and will be rescheduled for a later date.

FC Virginia’s next ECNL matches are scheduled for October 1st, when FC Virginia will travel to McLean to face their local ECNL rivals.

Game Day schedule for the McLean matches are as follows:

U14 6:00 Lewinsville Park #2
U15 2:00 Lewinsville Park #2
U16 5:00 Spring Hill #3
U17 4:00 Lewinsville Park #2
U18 3:30 Spring Hill #3

The U17 team also had a very successful year in Flight B. Their record over 12 games throughout the year was 6-3-3 and they scored 25 goals over the course of the year against stiff competition. They currently sit in 6th place and are fighting for the opportunity to be promoted to the A flight for the 2011-2012 season.

FC Virginia's U15 team has a considerable amount to play for over the weekend as how they finish will determine the clubs bracket placement for next year. So the Rising U15 and U14 teams will certainly be paying close attention to the U15's results this weekend.

Ellis said that he will be continuing to work with Rob Olsen, Director of Coaching House League, Christian Cziommer, Director of Operations, and Dean McAlpin, Director of Player Development, to focus on developing age-specific curriculums designed around Claudio Reyna’s U.S. Soccer curriculum, as well as focusing on more coaching education for the club’s staff.

"I’m really looking forward to trying to get the club to a higher level," said Ellis. "I already feel it’s one of the premier clubs in Virginia, but I want it to continue to grow so it becomes a nationally recognized club. I’d like to get the boys in the ASL, and the girls in the ECNL, and to strive to play in the top level leagues. We have to take baby steps, though, especially on the boys side, and the VCCL will help. As the boys side gets older, who knows. We may be able to get an academy program going in a few years. I’m really looking forward to seeing where we can push this club.

Ellis has a strong coaching resume having coached at George Mason University as well as State and Regional Olympic Development Teams. He was the Head Scout for the US Women’s National Team at the Athens Olympics and has coached youth teams to seven Virginia State Titles, 3 Region one championships and one National Championship.

Coach Ellis holds an “A” license from the United States Soccer Federation as well as an NCSAA Premier Diploma.

"The soccer board of directors within SYA have been very visionary over the years, and this is another step in their recognition that the club will continue to grow. I know we all appreciate all the support work they provide. They do a fantastic job," added Ellis.

Competing at the Delco Players Cup were the U14, U13, and U11 age groups. The U14s competed in the Premier Division and allowed only 1 goal against in preliminary play. The stumbled in the finals and lost by a 1 goal margin. In the Elite division, the U13s came out on top and went home as champion. FC Virginia Elite U11 put in a solid performance and amassed a record of 1-1-1 in the toughest Championship division.

Our U10 Boys team did not compete over Memorial Day, but will be going up to the Hershey Park tournament in June.

Meghan was drafted by the Atlanta Beat as the 14th overall pick three months ago at the WPS draft in Baltimore. Lenczyk was with family on draft day, watching and hoping to hear her name called over the webcast of the proceedings. She indicated that she had not spoken to any of the WPS teams and was unsure if any of the clubs were interested.

She was quoted in an article by Dan Lauletta on womensprosoccer.com as saying, “I was really excited. I was with my family so we all celebrated,” Lenczyk said. “I was just watching and heard my name. I had no idea.”

In the same article, Meghan said about her first goal, “I was really happy that I scored, but I wasn’t expecting it at all. I just tried to come in and do my best and work hard and try to make a difference.”

"Mike is one of the best coaches in the region, with a long track record of success in developing female players as well as winning," said D.C. United Women General Manager Tim Schweitzer. "He brings the perfect combination of coaching ability and the relationships with top programs that we need to quickly build a highly competitive team. We couldn’t be happier to have him on board, and the team building has already moved into high gear."

Jorden, a 10-time Virginia state cup champion coach, said he’s excited to take the helm of the W-League team. "This is a fantastic opportunity for me to work with a great group of people," said Jorden, "Tim and everyone in the front office at D.C. United Women are all first class. We have a lot of work to do in a short time frame and I am looking forward to the challenge."

Jorden is an accomplished coach who has two U.S. Youth Soccer Region I titles - in 2003 and in 2009 - and has captured Virginia state titles in every age group the competition is held.

The D.C. United Women will draw players from a large pool of elite college standouts and former professionals. With numerous veteran stars and top collegiate programs in the Washington metro area, expectations will be high when United takes the field this summer.

Jorden, who was also affiliated with Virginia’s Olympic Development Program for 10 years, said he wouldn’t be surprised to one day coach his former youth players. "The idea of re-connecting with some of my former players and building relationships with new ones is extremely exciting," he said.

The D.C. United Women fill the vacancy left by the departure of the Washington Freedom Futures and will play their home matches at the Maryland SoccerPlex in Germantown, Md. Also the former home of the WPS Washington Freedom, the SoccerPlex is an ideal showcase for women’s minor league soccer in the D.C. metropolitan area. They will face a challenging slate of opponents in the Northeast Division this season, including notable W-League mainstays New York Magic and Long Island Rough Riders. United Women will kick off its home season on Thursday, June 9th with a match against the 2005 W-League Champions, New Jersey Wildcats.

Most of the club competed down in Richmond at Jefferson Cup with outstanding results against tough competition. Both the U11s and U13s moved on to the extra rounds of play. The U11s finished third in the Elite flight and the U13s came in with a fourth place finish in the Platinum flight. The FC Virginia ECNL U16s, U17s and U18s played in the most competitive Championship flight in their respective age groups. The U16s compiled a record of 2 wins and 1 tie, the U17s finished with an impressive 3 wins, and the U18s came away with 0 wins, 2 ties, and 1 loss.

Rounding things out for the club were the FC Virginia ECNL U15s, FC Virginia Courage U16 and FC Virginia Courage U18. The U15s competed in the Elite flight and came away with 0 wins 1 tie 2 losses. Both the U16 and U18 Courage were in the Platinum flight for their age goupings. The U16 Courage had an even split with 1 win, 1 tie, and 1 loss. The U18 courage played for 1 win and 2 losses.

Finally our U10 United Boys brought home the Championship from the SASA St. Patricks Day tournament going undefeated throughout.

During the camp, the players had the opportunity to compete in front of scouts from both the U.S. Soccer Federation and top colleges from around the nation, and to learn from a series of off-field presentations, including one by former U.S. Women’s National Team standouts Mia Hamm and Kristine Lilly.

“This camp will not only be a tremendous developmental experience for the players, but it should also be an experience they will remember for the rest of their lives,” said ECNL President and US Club Soccer Executive Vice President Christian Lavers. “Our goal was to identify the best players in the country, put them in a position to showcase their ability against one another, and then provide an unmatched educational experience through discussions with some of the best female players ever to play the game and instruction by top level coaches – and I think we have done that.”

“This camp will once again provide a great opportunity for players from all around the country to come together and perform in front of U.S. Soccer staff and college coaches,” said Rory Dames, US Club Soccer’s id2 Girls’ Program Director. “I am very excited to see the players compete with each other in a challenging environment and for them to have the chance to learn from our great guests and staff members.”

The event, held July 14-16, was the culmination of the second season of the ECNL and included 164 of the country’s top female youth soccer teams representing all 52 current member clubs in what is one of the most prestigious events of the year. The teams were competing for age group championships and promotion and relegation between the Challenge A and B flights in each age group for the 2011-12 season.

“The ECNL National Championship was a tremendous success and once again displayed the high level of play that exists in the league,” said ECNL Vice President Doug Bracken. “This event will be the pinnacle of female youth soccer competition in this country for the future.”

Highlighting the final day of competition was the U-17 ECNL National Championship Game between top-seeded San Diego Surf (Calif.) and No. 2 seed PDA (N.J.), which was carried live on ESPNU and ESPN3. In a tense game, San Diego Surf found a late goal from Stephanie Hamilton to give the club its first ECNL National Championship.

“Having the opportunity to showcase the U-17 national championship game live on ESPNU and ESPN3 not only gave the ECNL national exposure and created a wonderful experience for the players and teams involved, but it also provided us a platform to show how the ECNL is trying to improve the landscape of women’s soccer in this country,“ said ECNL Commissioner Sarah Kate Noftsinger.
