Two points on this. One, the topic is GDA not BDA. There are no such Mexican women players. The highest profile example I can think of moved in the opposite direction (Huerta, Mexico —> USA). Second, the example you cite doesn’t disprove the ability of boys DA to develop, it’s an example of recruiting. The Mexican players went where they felt was the best fit for them, and MEX is better on the men’s side than USA at this time. |

Point 1: GDA is based on BDA. POINT 2: BDA has been around for 11 years (baseline) Point 3: USMNT is worse now then before BDA. Point #4. Women's soccer in Mexico growing with help from U.S. players Article: https://www.latimes.com/sports/soccer/la-sp-usa-mexico-soccer-baxter-20150517-story.html After her first start with the U.S. under-23 national team, the Americans' interest quickly waned. Mexico, on the other hand, asked if she'd like to play on its World Cup team. But if the choice were easy, it was also emotional: The first time Perez played a competitive game against the U.S., she had to bite the insides of her cheeks to keep from singing "The Star-Spangled Banner." Twenty-seven minutes later, she scored the deciding goal in a 2-1 Mexican victory, and she never looked back. Twelve players on Mexico's preliminary 24-woman World Cup roster were either born in the U.S. or grew up there, with nine coming from California. For each, playing for Mexico wasn't about turning their backs on one country. It was about embracing an opportunity from another. I CAN DO THIS ALL DAY. |

I'll take a break. As you can see, ECNL has produced some decent players and will continue to sever its purpose for a long time coming.
Just off the top of my head...Nalley and Fox, both products of FCV ECNL, are getting call ups to WNT. The current FCV DA YNT call ups have played in the ECNL x2 longer than DA. |

Regardless of the organization (DA or ECNL) who were their coaches at FCV and do they still coach there? If not, where do they coach now? That is the more relevant question than what league or org. they played within. We all know Bobby P. (the current FCV da coach) was not there yet so his resume is not relevant to the question. But did CZ coach them primarily or was it Terry or others no longer there? |

Terry for the WNT call ups CZ for the current YNT call ups All players came up through ECNL ranks. Again, DA has been around for 1.5 years. They can take credit for nothing. |
