| DA has been the 2nd league in the nation since year two after so many of the big clubs left. The split between the two has grown year after year. Very few DA teams did what they should have done and worked to attract the best coaches and players from the area. They simply took mid level regional team clubs added them to the DA and those teams stayed intact. They were in many cases just slightly above average before the DA and that has not changed. There are a few exceptions but as a whole that's the reality. |

 it’s the married couple again. Easier to ping pong your tag team across the kitchen table at home, we see.

Doesn't matter. All the top prospects pulled from GDA out West, where DA dominates. This is what USSDA wanted so it could focus talent draw there
No one cares about this whine. |

Like why LAFC slammers left DA and REAL joined them this year. LOL. You're right no talent comes from the East coast.....Silly fan boy. |

There is no one from the EAST (either DA or ECNL) called up to actually play on the National Teams. They select one or two from the east - but they are pool players, don't hit the field and are not selected to rosters. Most EAST players (DA or ECNL) have to go outside of the US to play on National teams (Philippines, Norway, Spain) The National team wan't mid-west or West players. Look at the rosters. https://www.topdrawersoccer.com/club-soccer-articles/topdrawersoccer-girls-ynt-hub_aid47600 |

No one from the east? Wrong. |

He's correct that the overwhelming majority do not. Don't you have a meetup with the hubby over coffee at the kitchen table to get to? |
