[quote=Anonymous]I don't see how this is even a debate?!?!?!?

The talent pool of the GA isn't even close to ECNL nationwide. In every year 2007 and up, ECNL clubs outnumber GA Clubs in the top 100 rankings by a ratio of almost 4:1. Only 4 GA teams are ranked in the top 5 across 6 years of age groups (2007-2002) as compared 23 ECNL teams. It actually only gets worse from there comparing the two leagues.

Sure, there might be more teams but the quality of competition one could argue is just as much outnumbered at a pace of 4:1. These are statistical facts. The question I ask you is, do you want your DD playing against the best or are you happy just hoping to get into GA Champions League and get top notch competition there.

Regardless, FCV is a highly respected club however, it's competition is not. Nobody is going to say, hey look at this quality win over PA Classics, Sporting Delaware, Metro United, Philly Ukranian, or Cedar Stars, yet alone the other teams. It's just facts.

In the end, the player recruits the coach first, and then the coach the player followed by other nuances. So one could say it doesn't matter but remember this, the coach will see the competition as DD plays against them as well. That coach will see a difference between the skill levels of ECNL vs GA too. It's no different than that kid from Instagram posting highlights against horrible competition, and you say to yourself, why are they posting highlights against Alexandria White?!?!?
