[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]GA has potential but you are an idiot if you think it on par with ECNL. The mere fact that any GA team in the country would jump toECNL if it could. The only reason GA exists is that clubs weren't able to get into ECNL and had to save face. [/quote] :lol: another angry post. Calm down! GA exists because us soccer sucks and GA formed to take the place of what the disgrace of our national soccer governing body left. It couldn’t be simpler than that. It’s really not about ECNL at all. I personally think ECNL is stupid not to have made an attempt to persuade these very good programs to join in one, unified league, but that’s really their loss at the end of the day. [/quote] Their loss? The ECNL has made all the right moves all along. they could have any club they want on the girls side we all know this. Admitting they have made the right moves all along is something harder for the DA or should I say EX DA parents to admit. As for College they are loosing federal and state funds by the millions. 33+ Million unemployed says enrollment will be way down and with less Football and Basketball tickets sold, funds for Title IX sports will be at record low levels. So when these coaches chose to spend their small dollars wisely searching for U16 and U17 talent across the nation next year do you really think they will be clamoring to watch U16 Salvo SC vs Philly Ukraine or U16 LAFC Slammers vs Ohio Elite? U17 West Florida Flames vs Rise SC or U17 PDA vs Michigan Hawks? Come on dude, we all know the answer. Lamorinda vs Utah Royals AZ or SLSG vs REAL Colorado. The list goes on and on. [/quote] +1[/quote] Exactly what are you +1ing? You agree that College enrollment is both going to drop, limiting recruiting staff while inversely RAISING ECNL showcase status? You think all of that is going to happen AND ECNL showcases are going to go on as normal? Have you been watching the news? The entire State University of California system has already said they will be holding classes ONLY remotely. California’s D2 conference has already cancelled their fall sports. The MAC has already eliminated post season tournaments. More shoes are about to drop but you happen to believe that HUGE ECNL Showcases are just gonna remain unchanged? ECNL has 6 national events. 4 of which are held between November and February. You still believe those are going to remain unchanged with thousands of kids flying in from all around the country? Now how financially viable will a National league remain if it hasn’t been able to host a showcase in over 12 months? If you think Loudoun rec parents are pissed about being out $160 for a lost spring season what will ECNL parents be like without a real national showcase until next April after a fall season of zoom practices? [/quote] Florida will allow all sports with no precautions. So all the tournaments will be moved there. Done deal.[/quote] Who will fly there and how good will you play with intermittent training at best? And not only would ECNL have to spend money for field space for three more events in FL they are still on the hook for the unused venues in Arizona, Texas and South Carolina. [/quote]
