[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Agree that ECNL will be stronger top to bottom immediately.  Also, GAL will not be able to compete with ECNL as a national league as college coaches focus their limited time and resources at ECNL events/clubs and more GAL players/clubs migrate to ECNL in coming years[/quote]

Disagree. ECNL will have a few top teams and GAL will have a few. Blowouts will occur in both leagues, just like in CCL, EDP, etc... no league will dominate. College coaches will identify perspective players at ID camps and than go see them play wherever they may be. GAL players won’t migrate to weaker teams because the lack of strong players will impact their development, so there won’t be any major shift from GAL to ECNL. Geography and demographics will determine which clubs continue to produce top players, not leagues. Only when leagues actually become focused on performance v. generating revenue, will any sort of meaningful national league emerge. Membership in a league, now more than ever, is meaningless. I know it’s hard to swallow, but a patch on a sleeve doesn’t mean you are talented. Talent stands out on its own, everything else is just revenue for the coach, club and league. The only hope now is for ODP to come back.[/quote]
