The players came from all over the country to play on this team. So they have a free weekend.

Or Ballers Elite can stop playing nation-wide all star team style and assembling kids for tournament wins rather than development.
Who uses tournaments for development? Mad because your kid didnt get the invite
I would assume that they won't be invited back. And yes they chase trophies. Who wants to beat teams winning by that much? What do they get out of it? Also, how do you circumvent the number of guest players when they are all guest players?

So is this a team that plays in a league? Or did you mean they didn’t make tryouts last spring?

It's going to be interesting to see what happens with GA clubs as gov employees are forced kicking and screaming to go back into the office.
Parents won't have the time to drive an hour and a half both ways in traffic so their kid can play for a specific club. Suddenly the GA club that practices 10 min down the street will become more and more appealing.

FC DELCO - impressive.
TFANJ - if they go GA. Huge for the club. Very very good team. They would’ve beat FC DELCO in finals
SJEB - Great team. Results show that
Charlotte Soccer Academy (CSA) - should’ve been in first flight instead of GSA/SYC/NVA.
Elmbrook - never heard of them impressive for them not to have GA and ECNL
FC United - strong GA team.
RU/NVA/SYC/GSA/Concorde Fire Big let downs this tourney.
LOL, is this still really a debate?? if your DD is GA, then be honest with yuouself, at least for this region, she want good enough to make an ECNL team...this isn't rocket science, there is no debate, those who know, know, GA in MA, is baby far so weaker it;s not even close, who cares what it;s like around the country, lol!! if you are plating GA in the MA, you art second team, and btw, its all good, but if you have a shot at ECNL take t!
Conclusion:
There are great GA teams and great ECNL teams. There are bad ECNL teams and bad GA teams.

I wonder about that for sure...I guess its good development for top players perhaps? I'm not hating, I would go if I were invited.
It’s honestly ridiculous. You’re 10 stop clout chasing 🤦🏻♀️

Will be a FC DELCO/FA NJ final.
2nd bracket pretty tough too. Any surprises there?
The Fairfax Union U13team were a surprise I think. I thought Arlington was going to win the whole thing.
