[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You ever stop to think that maybe is not about HS but rather the ECNL team is better than the DA team....so they chose the ECNL team [/quote] That's fair. Every player should choose what she thinks is best for her development. Did you ever stop to think that players choosing DA think it is better for their development? Maybe another ECNL team overall would be better and maybe it wouldn't. That depends on the club we are talking about in each case. That isn't necessarily the right question. Some players may feel their own development is better with a 10 month schedule over a 5-6 month one. [/quote] You ever stop to think that no one posted anything about DA players choosing DA? It's the other way around and you are spearheading most of it. So do yourself a favor. Look in the mirror and state the following: "stop contridicting yourself, (insert name)" The league doesnt matter!!!! The DA has great teams and awful teams. The ECNL has great teams and awful teams. The DA has some great players and mostly average players The ECNL has some great players and mostly average players. The DA has some good coaches and bad coaches The ECNL has some good coaches and bad coaches The DA has 4 practices. The 4th practice is on Sunday and used a recovery after Saturdays game. It's not a net gain of a training day like others want you to believe. In reality, the DA and ECNL have 3 real training days. Some ECNL teams have better players, coaches and will beat DA teams...and vice versa. DA claims 10 months of training. In other words, they play Spring/Fall and futsal in the winter. Players also play other sports like basketball and track, etc. Nothing special. ECNL kids prior to high school are going the same thing. In fact, the majority of kids playing travel soccer are doing the same thing. In theory, the ECNL players who choose to play HS (majority do) play a 6 month CLUB SEASON because they are participating in high school. HOWEVER, THEY ARE STILL PLAYING SOCCER FOR THOSE OTHER 4 MONTHS AND STILL DOING COLLEGE SHOWCASES WITH THEIR CLUB. TEAMS. In reality, ECNL kids play more soccer than the DA kids. Overload, right? Well the majority of DA kids play 10 months plus other sports plus personal training.....and with the newly implemented champions league cup, more games. more travel, and more money. The ECNL kids playing HS are not getting the same quality of training during those 4 months, right?....TRUE. They are not. No argument there. HOWEVER, MANY OF THE PLAYERS ARE LEARNING TO PLAY UP AGAINST OLDER KIDS. Much like college...but let me guess, college sucks as well, right? Maybe it's not considered good soccer. However, that's not the point. Club sports will typically be better than HS sports IN EVERY SPORT. However, that's not the point. 99.99 percent of players will never get a NT call up. 7 percent will play college soccer. 2 percent will play D1 college soccer. 5 percent will play D2 and D3. 1,156 players in the Girls ECNL Class of 2019 will go on to play soccer at the collegiate level this fall, with 847 players committed to play in NCAA Division I programs. Playing college soccer is Elite. The above stats prove it. That is the end goal for the vast majority of kids. Are you really this ignorant? What 4th practice is on Sunday? Training is Monday through Thursday. DA outdoor Training Season skips only July and a month between early December and early January. Futsal is not included but would be additional. The boys abs girls DA truly trains 4 times a week for 10 months. Anybody telling you otherwise is full of manure. [/quote][/quote]m Are you really this ignorant? What 4th practice is on Sunday?
