[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Time to move on from the ECNL vs GA crap once again. It's been established that GA parents don't care and we don't want to hear about how ECNL is better and how are DDs are horrible players compared to ECNL players.

Back on subject please. [/quote]

It would be nice, wouldn't it?  I am guessing the "hats" who feel the need to be here saying ECNL is better are the parents of fringe players. It makes them feel better/superior somehow.  The parents of the good players probably couldn't care less and are happy with their situation.[/quote]

No hat here. GA parent who feels like my DD was lied to. It’s not about better / worse. Not looking for great, would be happy with good, but what we have is bad (even if better than terrible RL). Can’t argue with the data. Question is whether the problem is this conference and things will get better in Champions League. Wouldn’t help my DD but perhaps it’s not a league or conference issue but, as PP suggested, a 2013 issue.[/quote]
And your 2013 DD would be better off in MA, where 2 of the 3 local ECNL teams (who are undefeated in league play) just went a combined 1-5 at WAGS against GA teams?

Making an issue of driving to Charlotte is kind of funny. There are 3 top level teams in Charlotte, 1 ECNL and 2 GA. You are either driving there for 1 game against a Top 1-2 team and splitting the weekend at another site in NC or spending a full weekend there and playing 2 of the top 3 Charlotte teams. Barely makes a damn’s worth of difference.[/quote]

It looks like the previous poster was more indicating that his GA club had hyped up how good the competition would be in GA. And while there are some strong GA teams there are also some who are “building”.  
In looking at the 2013 standings there are 3 teams with a 20+ goal differential. In 2012 there is 1, 2011 there is 1 and 2010 there are 2. So it does seem there is a bit more of a talent range in 2013 currently. 
I do think that talent range will get smaller next year. I think it is likely that TSJ moves to Aspire. I also think it is likely some of the RL girls at Arlington, GFR and Vienna will migrate to GA. [/quote]

The 2013 group has always been what it is. The only 3 competitive clubs at the age were Mclean, Loudoun and Syc so it doesn't matter what league they're in those 3 clubs would still run through everyone. So I'm not sure what promises the posters club gave them about competition but we knew what the local comp would be. And every sports league in the world has "meaningless" games due to half of the league being subpar in comparison to the top. [/quote]
