ECNL moving to school year not calendar

[Anonymous]

Its not on which league is necessarily better. But overall ECNL has locked up college pathway. A crappy player on ECNL will get scene more then a better player in GA. GA does not do a good job on college front. This coming from a parent whos had a girl in GA and Girl on ECNL. My GA girl was better then ECNl girl. But guess who got recruited.

This sounds made up to prove a point that’s not true

On the other hand this may be the reason why they want USSF to go along with it as, if they go it alone, there might be some defection to GA for Q1/Q2 born if ECNL goes SY and GA stays BY, which would be dumb for ECNL to do I would think.

Never going to happen, GA is here to stay.

ECNL had their chance to take over the youth soccer market when DA blew up and chose to not capitalize.

Wait until US Soccer implements NWSL Next via the top clubs in GA. ECNL parents minds will melt.

GA is literally already the minor leagues. Take a look at any credible rating and there might be one or two GA teams in any age group top 25. And VERY rarely any in the top 10. If they lose Top Hat, CUP, LFA it just waters it down even more. The current break down for something like college offers is 70% ECNL 20% GA and 10% all other. If GA loses 3-4 more top teams then those numbers keep going down. If you have a choice, not sure why you would stay at a GA program if there is an ECNL available unless you are in one of those very select few markets that has a super strong GA club, like Atlanta or Cincinnati .

In USA ranked girls clubs, Top Hat comes in at #16. City at #22 LFA at #40 and CUP at #42. No wonder fewer coaches at GA playoffs vs ECNL playoffs. This really isn't an argument.

The other way to look at this is TH CitySC LFA and CUP are getting special looks from college recruiters.

Oh yeah.. follow any of those clubs on Instagram
And you will see how much love they get from YNT selections and P4&P5 colleges.

I mean come on… look at the bottom 5 clubs/teams in every ECNL conference. There are some absolutely terrible clubs in that league.

Please tell us more about your USYNT and P4/P5 player. We'd all love to hear more about them.

Not calling players out by name here.
Fact is, youth men’s NT is next is 100% mls next.

GA is putting girls in college, pro, and uswynt

My kids plays both GA and ECNL and I’m pretty sure ECNL does take some of the better GA teams each year.

Now we have folks lying about switching to ST and lying about ECNL taking clubs from GA

It’s not even February yet. Holy smokes

Nationals is the only team in recent years that somewhat hurt GA.

Colorado Rush is doing horrible in all age groups in ECNL.

Ukies and SSS are mid level ECNL teams at best.

Lonestar was on the verge of getting eaten up by Sting Austin

I think that is the point. Ukies and South Shore were top of the table in GA and are now middle of the pack in ECNL. Lonestar gave up a GA for an RL bid. And Nationals had two GA teams. You can rationalize all you want but no ECNL team is asking to move to GA that I am aware of. And the GA teams being brought in to replace the ones that left? They are terrible. In some GA conferences (talking about you Midwest) you could put an all star team together and not beat Solar.

Hey bud, it already started last year. Ask yourself why Nationals, Ukies, South Shore, Colorado Rush, Lonestar all left GA to go to ECNL. Do you really think more clubs wont go over this year? GA close to being in a death spiral.

Oh, and tell me all about the ECNL teams that moved over to GA in the last 5 years?

Should really become better informed before accusing people of lying. Let me guess, you are with a GA club and your DOC tells you everything is great? News for you is that your GA club has probably applied to ECNL and gotten turned down. Don't feel badly, it is happening to a lot of GA clubs. ECNL doesnt want to water down their organization too much so only taking the clubs that hurt the GA.

SYC split from McLean to go GA.
KCSG Went ECRL to GA.

A tide is coming buddy. Don’t get caught up in the ECNL hype pal. let me guess, you kid is a bench on a 4-12th place team in your conference?

ECNL is watered down. Up to 6 teams making playoffs in one conference?

Selling false dreams to those oblivious parents. Imagine being 6th place in a conference? Flying to WA just to get annihilated by another mediocre team

I love how people that cant form an argument with facts or evidence always resort to attacking a child. Same thing in BY vs SY and with ECNL vs GA. People that are with GA and want to stay with BY, man, their heads must be about to explode!
