[quote=Anonymous]We have a child that is starting out in travel soccer and we are trying to understand the various leagues and level of competitiveness. A few other parents were talking at a game and the sentiment was that that ECNL and ECNL RL for the boys side (they did not speak about girls) is a "scam." Their reasoning is that they they thought they required clubs to put all their age groups in the league. That means that mostly larger more established clubs are part of it while smaller clubs are left out. They mentioned how this sets up a racial divide because many of the older big clubs are run by a head coaching staff that is mostly white while the really good smaller clubs are run by coaches from many other countries. One parent said it might give the impression that these big league teams are better but when you look at tournament results the clubs that play in "lower" leagues are beating the ones in the "higher leagues." What say you? [/quote]
