[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Maybe the GAL clubs should have went ECNL-R. That would have satisfied your need for local travel and cost issues.

But GAL didn't care. They went off and started that own little league because they are poo poo faces[/quote]

Why would anyone do ECNL R?  Really NPL? This is how brainwashed you all are to a set of letters.

ECNL R is literally NPL. Only the letters changed. [/quote]

So you can do local travel and help disadvantage kids. Duh.

Check your ego at the door guy.

LOL[/quote]

ECNL R isn’t “Elite”.  It doesn’t offer a showcasing platform. It is just a travel league no different than CCL, NCSL or EDP.

Seriously, to promote ECNL R as anything more than that is laughable [/quote]

If ECNL wanted to be elite, they should have picked up FCV and Arlington while relegating two of four local ECNL clubs who are consistently at the bottom of the table to ECNL-R. I’m not sure what ECNL wants to be anymore, they are just another league. They have been focused so much on fighting us soccer and the DA, that they’ve lost their way. As for GA, they are saying it’s the DA structure with high school play and increased subs. Prior to us soccer folding the DA, a player usually chose a team based upon HS play, location and competitiveness. Now, the HS decision is moot and the primary criteri are location and competitiveness. That’s an easier choice to make in the area.[/quote]

Honest question here regarding HS....how is it being handled in the GAL if there are different HS seasons for MD and VA clubs?[/quote]

The same as ECNL used to manage it, case by case. For some kids it makes sense and others it doesn’t. ECNL you are almost forced to play HS.

Personally, I don’t understand why anyone would spend $7000 a year to give up the team training in favor of HS before national showcases. [/quote]
