Relevant to what? Winning? All of the options are good at placing kids in college.

It depends where your focus is.

The point is that there is elite soccer played outside of the DA/ECNL.

Baltimore Celtic beat two DA teams in VDA Showcase and Pipeline has yet to lose to an ECNL team. SAC Blue beat several ECNL clubs. Please get over it. DA/ECNL is stronger than EDP/CCL but to argue that non-DA/ECNL aren't elite stupid.

You are correct. ECNL in this area is NOT elite. It is watered down and offers more opportunities for kids to play in a "National" league.

Let me know when a good DA team (Not WSVA / MU) plays a local team and loses. I'd like to hear all about it!

So ECNL is not elite but the DA is? Simple truth is neither are. Both are watered down locally and nationally.

Stop bashing. FCV, Bethesda, McLean and Pipeline are stand outs at this age.

Bethesda did not qualify for playoffs and fcv and McLean did not get out of their group like vda and Richmond. Pipeline plays national league. They’re definitely not standouts.

Last year and hanging your hat on beating MU is like saying your CFB team should be national champs because they beat NC St.

I am amazed at the idiocy on this board. We are talking about the losers who try to argue that there are no serious players outside of DA/ECNL. Now people are trying to argue that Celtic wins over DA teams don't count. Look, just because you were suckered into paying tens of thousands to claim to your friends that your DD is an elite players does not mean that those who were nor suckered can't enjoy elite soccer without paying tens of thousands.

Also, Bethesda will end up one of the top teams in the country because the team merged with a non-ECNL team that was already a top team.

Who is paying tens of thousands of dollars other than metro? My DD plays ecnl and we pay about the same as our friends playing on a top national league team.

Your saying that between the posted $, uniform costs, travel fees for any showcases (hotel/air/food), travel fees for any league games where a bus is used, your travel and hotels for games where a bus isn't used, and your travel to the showcases (assuming you go) that you won;t spend $10k?

Metro dues are well higher than everywhere else. That’s common knowledge. They’re even more then the the st James fc Virginia.
