[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Girls. The U14 ECNL is a Champions league. At this age it doesn’t matter. Just trying to out a snapshot up there to see how our sister clubs do. [/quote]

Yes, all girls. All of the nut job parents only have girls apparently. [/quote]

I've wondered about this.  I think it's because everything is inherently more competitive and a longshot for boys.  Parents of boys tend to be very humbled by the time their boys are HS age.

They start out thinking they have a little superstar and the younger ages get a lot of trash talk on this board, but 99% of those little stars don't pan out.   Once you leave the mini-boy bubble and see the larger landscape across the US (California teams just crush us in general), they tend to let go.  College scholarships worth any decent $ are also fairly non-existent for boys given the big sports they are competing with $ for (football, basketball,).

So-- the parents of girls see this as a ticket and for many a college scholarship is very real.  For any given boy, not so much.[/quote]
