I, good person, am a Virginian. Born and raised.

Then explain how you can speak so authoritative about California soccer?

Please explain to me how you don't know this? Are you trolling. You must be.

You are the one who is talking about the California soccer scene as it compares to NOVA and even New Jersey. Please tell us how you know so much about the California soccer scene to know the geographic layout and history of the clubs and the pockets of talent that you can speak so authoritatively. Or are you just going on "California is simply amazing and every club and almost every player is superior to here" assumption? And even though there are 13 clubs in the California Southwest conference (14 total) alone and 7 ECNL teams. That is 4 less DA clubs in one Conference than the DA has from VA to MASS combined, but somehow they don't suffer from talent dilution and we do?

There is not a single person who know anything about soccer who doesn't say that Socal is the richest, by far, talent pool for womens soccer in the nation. No one...but you. So, there you have it everyone, listen to this mullet wearing imbolsal who drinks Coors light at Glory days

According to Urban Dictonary "imbolsal" is the bastarized form of im·be·cile. Though it would help your brain sound it out like Sesame Street .

So, you have zero first hand knowledge of the actual SoCal soccer scene. Good to know.

What is your 1st hand knowledge since you have an opinion?

I'll tell you mine. I've seen them 1st hand. Both here and in California. I know scores from when local teams played Socal teams. I know where the most scouted region in womens soccer is located. I know the region where most NT players come from. I know the area where experts will tell you from their experience is the best.

So tell us..., who are you? What club are you affiliated with? Guarentee i can find a Socal team that crushed them

I didn't claim to have knowledge of SoCal, you did. I am asking you what your experience is and how you have come to your conclusions. Your premise is that we are diluted in NOVA.

NOVA has a population of 1.5 million compared to LA County's 10 Million and yet, with a tenth of the population we average the longest commute times in the nation. (https://www.moneycrashers.com/worst-us-cities-traffic-commute-time/)

We neither have the player population nor the logistical capacity to condense our player pool to much more than it already is dcurrently. Again, California is a completely different place with its own issues than ours. There is very little that is done in SoCal that correlates to here so it isn't worth the time comparing the two regions.

So cal is Santa Barbara to the Mexican border. Lord have mercy on my soul. 30-40 million. Year around soccer. Do yourself a favor and use Google to figure it out. It's not hard.

Commute time? Then don't commute. No one is begging you...but to think families don't commute tells me you have no experience at ECNL or DA soccer

Because I used the population of one county in particular you think that I do not understand the scope of "southern california"? Stating 10 million for just one county was the point. 10 million for just ONE COUNTY moron.

You do know all you do is contradict yourself right? It's becoming comical.

SoCal is a hotbed for many sports given the population, wealth, diversity and weather.

What if you had SoCal's best teams playing each other instead of being affiliated with a league.

No, NOVA has a tenth the population with actually worse traffic. That is a fact, not a contradiction. Are parents willing to commute for elite soccer? Yes, but as I posted above, not at 12 years old. When DA and ECNL start in this region at U13 the actual logistics are an issue. All that means is our regional logistics creates some specific problems with condensing a player pool on a scale that would deliver "SoCal quality."

If SoCal went from 13 DA's to 6 do you honestly believe it would make a difference in the overall quality of those 6 clubs? Or would they simply miss out on 600 other quality players?

If you read the thread on the Arlington DA ID sessions it was clear that for at least the mentioned age group of the 30 kids there ONLY 5-6 were from outside of Arlington. Which pretty much confirmed things I said regarding the overall draw to Arlington when it was mentioned that they would have DA. For young ages it is a cluster eff to get there if you are not already in the area.
