[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What elite league doesn't play 10 months?  Dec and July are off basically.  Many ECNL teams practice 4 days a week, and both leagues play 1 to 2 games a weekend.  Only difference at HS ages is that ECNL crams all their games into a long fall season so kids can play HS.  Don't really care which league is better, but there really is not much difference.  The difference is with each team, their coach(es), and their players.  That's it.  Arguing over these two leagues is silly. Competition is stiff in both.  Too bad they won't play each other more often.  Its a shame really that adults want to prevent this.[/quote]

Taking three months away from club practices and games to play HS is significant.

“Craming” more games in the fall does not make up for a loss of three months of quality club practices. The quality of any particular HS program is far to variable to be considered good for development.

Craming nearly a spring and fall season worth of games into 4-5 months before a kid plays an intense HS season of 2-3 games a week is also not healthy. [/quote]
 Worked out ok for my kid and she payed b-ball in the winter too. Her choice. No injuries. Loved high school until Covid killed it. Wouldn’t have changed a thing. HS sports are great fun. That is the point by the way ... fun. Competitive, but still fun. Anyhow guess you’re one of the adults that wants to control other kid’s lives and have an elite princess club for your little precious. Hope she knows how to take care of herself when she’s older.

7k for a six month season. We’ll see post Covid how many kids can afford part-time soccer. [/quote]
