[quote=Anonymous]I hear you that "some clubs come, and some go," but none of those 6 new DA teams are currently in ECNL. Plus, the teams leaving DA are really good clubs. PDA and LAFC last year were a couple of the best DA girls teams in nearly every age bracket. Michigan Hawks was also a playoff team in most of their age brackets. Same is true for Crossfire. To put it mildly, it is a bad trend for a league if it is losing some of its top teams in the country to a rival league, and then is replacing those teams with significantly weaker clubs. That is not a recipe for sustained success, and it could ultimately lead to the other big clubs like Tophat, Solar, FC Dallas, etc. to decide to move to ECNL for better competition. Once that happens, the game is over, and DA will have become a second-tier national league. I would never have thought this would happen with the backing of US Soccer, but ECNL is flexing right now.
