[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]On GA vs ECNL, how about some data?

From the soccer rankings app:

GA teams in top 100 nationally by year:
2011 17
2010 22
2009 19
2008 16
2007 25
2006/5 22

So about 20% of the top girls teams nationally are GA, about 5% are Elite 64, and 75% are ECNL. [/quote]

20% is very good when you consider that GA clubs don't play in a lot non-GA events which then they don't get "points" in soccer rankings sites. GA Championship Cup Teams don't play in Jefferson Cup because they're only 3 days a part.  So to have 20% of the GA teams that are nationally ranked means they won or placed high in the very limited number of non-GA tournaments that they played in.  I also think that the ECNL league is calculated into the score but i'm not sure if the GA League is (it wasn't a couple years ago when i was following it). Almost every event an ECNL team does is ranked while only part of a GA team's schedule is.  Unless all events are ranked by the same system, then we're comparing apples to oranges.[/quote]
