GA in VA has too many clubs as it is, and needs to relegate some non-competitive ones to Aspire. Who would they add that would just water down the quality further?

The folks at the levers for ECNL must be a real treat. Their prime showcases have been a complete debacle this year, meanwhile they look down their noses at clubs that are interested. Hubris in overdrive.

Things are brewing…

MLSNext is a boys league.

How is the strategic partnership with GA going? Put ECNL out of business yet?

ECNL is still better than GA nationwide but the MidAtlantic conference of ECNL is so bad that GA is better for girls in this area.

you go to talking soccer and check the chats. Nc disagrees and hates driving up here for substandard competition. Way too many GA
Clubs in this area

GA will start sending underperforming clubs to aspire. You will see some changes in this area soon 😉

#ncma is raising hell so i hope so. Kinda the inverse of mlsn and boys ecnl. College Coaches know the products. Less saturation will bode well for the future teams

Where did you see this?

Mid Atlantic will suck even harder now that SC Surf is joining. Charleston is nice though

Wow. I truly hope for your sake that this is a troll post… if you really believe that, you have some issues.

If you average the rankings in each age group for just Mid Atlantic you will see ECNL > GA > RL/Aspire.

Doesn’t mean there aren’t some good GA teams that could beat a few ECNL teams but as a whole ECNL is stronger.

Its true and other geos are becoming this way as well.

If MLSN ever drops the hammer and forces clubs on their girls side to be GA things could flip overnight. But I dont think this will happen. More likely since US Soccer now controls ECNL and GA in the background we'll have some form of combined showcaaes and maybe a true playoffs. Combined showcases will make things better for everyone because leagues wont be competing for facilities on certain dates.
