[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm curious what outcome all of the folks posting here are looking for?  It seems that everyone is gleefully trying to say "look, here is evidence that ECNL is better and will win the battle of the leagues....  Here's club ABC that is great and its going to leave for XYZ reasons...."

If DA were to fold, what are you imagining happens next?  That the DA clubs you consider worthy (so in our area, everyone but Spirit VA who everyone loves to hate) join ECNL?  Probably not logistically practical nationwide, even if you only accepted 75% of the current DA clubs.  So what would happen?  How do you see it shaking out?  I agree that in the DC area there are too many choices, but that's not the case everywhere.  Would ECNL have to cut current ECNL clubs to make room for DA clubs that are "better."

I don't necessarily see any of the DA clubs getting ECNL, but I would see a lot of displaced talent coming to take some spots on current ECNL teams.

For a parent of a sub on a ECNL team the immediate collapse of GDA would soon be looking at NPL and CCL.

I agree that top DA talent will move to the ECNLclubs, which will displace some of their talent. But I don’t think GDA will collapse immediately.  Some of the displaced talent will move to those GDA teams and it will become a 2nd tier league.

My DD plays on a GDA team. Not sure if she’d be considered a truly elite player and be able to secure a spot on another team. For now, she wants to stay and that’s fine with me. I’m hoping for at least more year of a decent team and competition. Then we may have a better idea of her options. [/quote]

This might be the most reasonable post regarding this topic ever.[/quote]
