Girls ECNL Mid-Atlantic....mid-November update

[Anonymous]

OP how is this data relevant to ECNL? Does the league find any relevance on the stats? How does it relate to the ECNL mission, vision and goals? Is ECNL all about winning, developing, college, profits or individual player success? Is ECNL evaluating clubs based on the data or anything else? You are not the head of a club member therefore let people who know tell true.

BRYC u13 girls lost 10-0 to Richmond last weekend. That is terrible any way you look at it.

Sounds like your team loses alot. Sure, it's about college recruiting in the end, but club performance affects that over time. Better clubs attract better coaching and better players. By practicing in that environment over time, player development improves. It matters.

Exactly. College Coaches know which clubs are most successful from top to bottom and they tend to gravitate towards those clubs during recruiting cycles.

Having been on the sidelines with the coaches through multiple kids handing out info....almost every single one of them is invited there by a specific player. They do ask about other players they see during the match, but they are there in the first place because they were invited. I never met a single one that had "gravitated" anywhere.

It has little relevance. Point is to make another talking point on this message board. Its working.

No it is the opposite. The parents with bench warmers or kid barely hanging on are the ones who are always talking about the club’s 0 whatevers and how good they are, how good this or that player is on our team, how the team won the final but their kid was a non factor, etc. They are just a bunch of jock sniffers. The parents with players never talk about how the club is doing over all.

Here how it works. Big clubs have a big pool. They will have enough athleticism to beat 75% of the other clubs because of pool size. Every so often an age group gets lucky and has 5-6 top player vs 2-3 or a really dominant player in a key position. The coach and club have very little to do with it.

Also most posters here would not know a good coach from a bad coach. The way parents judge how good a coach is is if they select my kid for the top team the coach is great!.

Thanks. Hey, can I sniff your jock? You sound like a god.

ECNL mission vision and goals. Ha! Here’s the mission: to make a living doing something with soccer. That’s the mission. Second is to get accolades as a league for doing so. In order to do that based in the brand the teams have to (overall) be better than other league’s teams and must have more kids placed in college programs than clubs in other leagues overall. There are always exceptions and some non ECNL clubs that do well if not better, but overall the ECNL brand must do better at these two things to sustain its brand and purpose.

NP. Not sure what they did (assuming it would be a spread sheet), but it would be super easy with a spreadsheet and not difficult at all with pencil and paper.

Just looked on ECNL site and the math checks out. Lets use BRYC as an example: U13 0.00 + U14 0.08 + U15 0.33 + U16 1.11 + U17 0.36 + U19 1.00 = 2.88

Why are you in here all the time attacking BRYC? This is such a coach move. GROW UP
