[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Stop comparing GA to ECRL. Whoever created the topic is clearly misinformed. [/quote]

I’m with you, but I think the rapid growth of GA teams in the area is going to leave some of those teams (especially TSJFC and Alex) more like a RL team than a GA team. I’m a GA fan, but I would have preferred my DD play for a couple of local RL teams this season than for TSJFC. They were just that bad. [/quote]

GA teams are clubs 1st team

ECRL teams are clubs 2nd team

It's this simple. ECNL parents are trying their best to equate GA with ECRL to elevate themselves. People aren't buying it. ECNL parents are getting desperate.[/quote]

In this region right now you need to buy it.  Maybe over time GA separates from ECRL but it wont be this fall. The player pool in the area is the player pool.  Just because there are five brand spanking new GA teams does not mean they all have access to a new set of players. VRSC and SYC GA teams today aren't better than the top RL teams like Strikers, Arlington, and VA United, and they won't be tomorrow either.  CISC because of timing of their tryouts before the announced GA is bringing ECNL teams pretty much intact to GA.  NVA maybe in some age groups will have teams of mostly former ECNL players. Making CISC and NVA likely top of table. The rest, Loudoun, Alexandria, McLean are pulling from the RL player pool to fill out their new GA teams.[/quote]
I predict with all the DOGE layoffs, employees going into the office, and killing off of agencies that there will be much less kids participating in club soccer.

I also predict that players that do continue won't be driving all over DMV just to get on whatever team their parents view as the prestige one.

Players that continue playing in the next couple of seasons will play on whatever club team is close and cheap.

This means GA teams will pull from their local area. Unfortunate every club will be scrambling for players.[/quote]
