GA is a newer league. ECNL pounced after the collapse of DA. GA actually is improving (and it's easy because it's hard for 1 league to maintain such a dominance) -- it's why ECNL is playing the numbers game with the scouts/schools at showcases.

It appears that GA P4 recruits are actually going down. Not sure if that is because some bigger name clubs have left, taking their P4s with them or if the general skill level is going down. or both.

This is the definition of a leading question.

I could just as easily ask you...
How do you know you're gay if you've never been with a woman?

OK, make it simpler, I will post the actual numbers and then you can tell me the whys? Will that make you feel better counselor? 😂

32 teams have 4+ P4 commits in the class of 2026. 6 of those are GA. 26 are ECNL. And, just to remove doubt, Nationals are not one of the 32 teams so they are not skewing anything. So no leading questions just facts. ECNL simply dominates GA for high level soccer recruits.

Looking forward to rebuttal or moving of goalposts or whatever else you got……… counselor……….

Hey one trick poney your cherry picked stats mean nothing. It would be fun to track how many of those hit the transfer portal or how many get replaced by transfer portal players.

If my “one trick” is to position my kid to play for a P4 team then i will wear that with pride. What else should we be looking at? Uniform color?

You keep saying cherry picked. These are the raw numbers. Why dont you “cherry pick” your best GA recruiting stats and post them if it is so easy to manipulate the data. If you need help with pivot tables, let me know!

Since it is clear you dont like analytics, lets help you understand that ECNL will 100% lead the race for transfer portals since they make up 3-4X the number of college players in the first place. And, if they do get replaced by transfer portal players, where do you think the transfer kids played club soccer? 😂

What I think you want to know is if they transfer at a higher RATE than GA.

About age change. Just heard it’s going to be announced that Ga will go SY. Trish just pinged my pager with a 911 code and I called her back and that’s what she had to say. It’s happening. Sorry SY + and BY parents.

I think you missed the joke mathmagician.

The GA stats -- recruiting, scouts, etc -- are in the other thread about the 2 leagues. You can find them there.

I agree with the recent PP -- this all has nothing to do with BY vs. SY and the upcoming age change.

OMG. The best you have is trinity rodman making an appearance at GA playoffs? Let me make sure I mark that down on my list of criteria for choosing a club. Coaches, nah, number of kids recruited to college, nah, level of competition, nah, proximity to my home, nah………..celebrity appearances is what will drive me to pick a GA club over an ECNL club for sure.

Your FOMO is palatable. ... More seriously, why does ECNL charge to live stream its playoffs? Why do they have to force people to pay for that?

The reason shes at a GA event is because Trinity played for Socal Blues when they were DA (Development Academy) and still has connections to former DA now GA leadership.

This is something iamsoccerdork would never understand because Blues play in ECNL now.

More likely she showed up because her brand sponsor told her to vs being due to personal relationships with GA leadership. But who knows.

Why is anyone on this thread? Germany v. Sweden is 1-1. Great match so far!

Maybe its because GA is sponsored by Adidas as is Trinity

Completely by choice. Had multiple opportunities at D1 level but decided to go pre med public ivy instead of dealing with all the drama around college soccer. Good luck with transfer portal, internationals, and 25% scholarships😂

Congratulations to you and your daughter!

Speaking of cherry picked manipulated data...

More girls ECNL players hit the transfer portal in their first year than any other girls league?

This!! I don’t care how many girls commit to a program out of high school. I want to know how many girls actually played all 4 years, got significant playing time, graduated with a degree, were happy with their choice and experience at college. These are the stats I want to see. Ecnl, Ga, who cares. Committing is not the goal, having a positive college experience is.

Once you get to the Collegiate level nobody cares what youth league you played in. Either deliver on the field or get replaced by a player that will. Theres only so many graduating seniors (aging out eligability players might not be seniors) per team. Its probably a 10 to 1 chance for starting positions if you play the entire 4 years.
