Pipeline ECNL Girls record

[Anonymous]

Does anyone know why they are doing so poorly on the girls side? 4 out of the last 6 age groups have 0 wins. We were considering them because everyone talks them up but after looking at the standings I am puzzled why so many families want to join them? Listing the records by age group below.

2011 2 - 7
2010 0 - 12
2009 0 -5
2008 3-3
2007 0 - 7
2006 0 - 6

The division is very difficult.

If the division is too difficult for them, maybe they shouldn't be in ECNL?

Lacrosse.

2012s not faring any better in pre-ECNL, one win and getting creamed by the better teams. Worst GD by far in the conference.

Wonder what ECNL is going to do with adding all of these good teams but not getting rid of any of the poorer performing teams? Are they just going to add more divisions and deluge things even more?

Pipeline seems to be good on the boys side, but God awful on the girls side.

There isn’t nearly the same commitment from the club on the girls side as there is on the boys’. The best players see that pretty quickly and leave.

They just market the sht out of ECNL - “playing in the best league in the country”. You’re not really playing if you don’t compete, you’re just participating.

Plenty of parents who look for the prestige and not the experience or the growth of their player. It’s how the best leagues become just ok leagues.

flames, well said.

You are right about paying just for prestige. I know folks pay close to 4k for an EDP 5 level team at Pipeline. I will never understand that insanity.
