GA-Aspire - travel distance?

[Anonymous]

Has anyone figured out who Black Diamond FC is was announced yesterday as GA2? There seems to be a black diamond soccer club in PA? Would that be someone MD teams would travel to play? I am assuming it is too far north?

Yes been documented several times the GA level conference will be NC and VA. Question was about the tier 2 GA-Aspire conference would should be geographically smaller than the GA conference to limit travel.

It's possible but if already driving to VA Beach, is there much of a difference in going to NC?

Even VA Beach is a long drive for what at least at the start of this new league is likely to be EDP-level play.

OK but EDP travels to VA Beach now so it's still the same for those participating clubs.

There's 5 teams, including PPA. Not bad. At least they don't travel 5 hours to NC.

Probably 1 trip to NC for a double header. Seems to be how ecnl does it so it may be similar setup.

5 games per season is pretty few. I wonder if they’ll do a cross over with some of the Nova teams.

5 MD teams and 3 PA teams, 8 teams total. The IG post was taken down so maybe more changes coming.
