[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]forget about trolling GA clubs as being tier 2/3 soccer (low hanging fruit). Let's talk about national events and recruiting. ECNL Phoenix last weekend steeling all the GA NC thunder this weekend. Pull both attending lists and compare. List for GA event this weekend looks like an RL playoff attending list. Pretty clear the top institutions, when having to chose which weekend to attend, all chose ECNL Phoenix to see the top talent in the country compete. The ga continues to look like the old bankrupt league they used to be. Only a matter of time before they file again.[/quote] no reason for coaches to go to GA tournaments. if they do, they usually send assistants. Champions Cup and Playoffs are the only place college coaches should go to and it shows. everything else is just a waste of their time. [/quote] My kid played at champions cup and the rumor going around was that recruiters were impressed by what they saw and were planning to attend more GA events. But maybe they always say that kind of thing. You obviously have an agenda but what's the difference if recruiters go to an ECNL event but only watch/scout the top teams. Or if recruiters go to a GA event with only the top clubs playing? It's the same thing![/quote] I'll take things that didn't happen for $100. GA tournaments are not good. period. hat is why there is low turnout and the GA only has 3 tournaments and the summer tournament doesn't even invite the oldest age group. CAUSE coaches don't come. 20 top teams is all they go watch for recruiting seriously. it's that simple. stop sugar coating it. the December tournament, ga's biggest tournament will start getting less and less coaches.[/quote] Why would GA put resources into the oldest age group? If you're not engaged with a recruiter by that time it's not going to happen. I also like how you use leading words and innuendo to be negative about GA. The truth is that attendance players, coaches, scouts, etc has increased every year since GA was founded. Since you like to play the one up game I'll make sure videos of GA teams playing international teams at MLSNs Generation Adidas Cup get posted.[/quote]
