[quote=ghost057][quote=TedLasso]I think the decision is unfortunate for some of the younger ASA families that may have looked at their GA team as an option as their players age up. I don't know much about how Metro performed prior to their merger last year but if they've been fielding poor performing teams since the inception of GA then the decision makes sense I guess. My only gripe is maybe they didn't give the merger long enough to see if it would affect the teams in a positive way since its only been a year. I think ASA has a pretty strong 2012 group but those players wouldn't qualify for GA until after this next year.[/quote] That's the problem with girls soccer. For the boys they had all the time in the world to get them developed. GA has had to assume that ASA talent for 13 and above had to move on due to not having ECNL or GA so the smart move was to get the girls that are being developed. The 2012 ASA girls are one of the top teams in the country and i think a good mix of them and the 2011's couldn't been really competitive for next year. Playing up for that team has never been a problem as they have always played high level competition. The 2013's are looking pretty good too. Big loss on GA's parts as i truly believe the 2012's when they would've become GA would probably easily be a top GA team in country. Hopefully this gets resolved or ASA is just going to create a pipeline for the surrounding clubs. I've seen the other clubs in the area and as good as they are, they are not developed like the ASA girls. They play one maybe 2 positions if they are lucky. They kick the ball up field and may there best player get it. [/quote]
