[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I found this thread because we are considering this exact scenario: Top ECNL RL team or a new GA team. I think there will be growing pains with the latter but the roster is shaping up nicely. DD also wants to get some college looks and chances of moving up to our ECNL team are very slim. What are the chances of getting good college showcases playing RL? [/quote]

Yeah, no. If your player is good, have them play ECNL > (for now) or GA. Both are first teams. The second teams, on the girls' side, have abysmal differences with the top team. There might be a few decent ECNL-R teams, but most of them are not what you want if your player wants to improve. My DD plays ECNL.[/quote]

If this is about the DMV, this is a no-brainer. Based on the number of teams this year vs next at GA and ECNL-RL/Aspire, it's pretty clear the best RL players will be jumping for GA spots in the handful of new teams and the 20+ RL/Aspire teams will have a step-down in talent and the greatest amount of dilution. If no pathway on your current club, no reason to stay. GA has built-in showcases which you will not get through RL and all things being equal, you will likely get higher tier competition as a GA team vs RL in larger mixed showcases like Jeff Cup.[/quote]
