[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My prediction is that ECNL is coming for the rest of GA

NEFC, Tophat, Lou Fusz, Cincinnati United[/quote]

Maybe, this is only negative for GA if they don't replace IMO. Record shows they have replaced more than they have lost. If more GA clubs want to abandon ship, I don't see it as an obvious negative, more like clubs prioritizing how they want to be seen in the marketplace. ECNL is synomous with winning at all costs so that you can be seen by college coaches. GA is synomous with development at all costs so that girls can identify best options after HS, even if it means losing some notable clubs that are feeling pressure in their markets to win now. Don't think there is much to this continuos debate: One is bigger and attracts top playes to top teams, the other has a bigger vision for girls soccer as a whole and has some competitive teams. Pick the one that aligns with your values and goals.[/quote]

Good summary of the differences.

Out of those mentioned, Tophat would be the only one that MIGHT get a shot.  They already have ECNL on the boys side which the other clubs that transitioned were not a part of MLS next on the boys side.  NEFC, Lou Fousz, and CUP all field MLS Next teams for boys.  Tophat also has politics going against them, same reason why FCV wasn't going to get a shot at ECNL and perhaps VRSC will never get a shot as well, ECNL holds grudges against clubs/staff.[/quote]
