As I write this I know it's risky, because the last thing I want to do is argue with a supporter. You're right about several things in your post, and most importantly Bridge FA is a great concept!!!!!!
One of the things that Bridge FA will do as I said earlier is provide stability in the low country soccer landscape. Perhaps some saw your team and realized that this was the way to go. But if I understand the history correctly, this team was primarily a MPSC team that went to OSSOC, and last year came back to MPSC. Kind of like what I said about players hopping club to club in search of the right environment.
Given the success that this team has had, it would be great for them to become a part of Bridge FA, since they already demonstrate the district nature. With what you have read up to this point, is there anything that would prevent this team/these players, from trying out for Bridge FA?
The team that went to Va Beach last weekend, was also a "district" team, and as I said, had players from various clubs but lived in the Mrytle Beach area, McClellanville, Mt. Pleasant, James Island, Summerville, Beaufort and Aiken. Within this pool was 12 ODP participants. The low country has always had the talent, and now they have the structure to pull it together.
