Okay just seeing all this GA 2 stuff and reading more here is what one club put on their socail media pg from Texas:
The GA2 is the level below the top tier, which is the Girls’ Academy (“GA”). The GA2 is designed to expand the player pool and provide a clear pathway for players who show the potential to make the jump to the GA level. GA2 implements a highly professional training environment and competitive model for aspiring GA players. Like the GA, the GA2 is a college soccer preparatory program.
Founded on the ideology of the GA program, the GA2 provides a development structure that focuses on playing more meaningful games, a professional game day environment, more training, high-level coaching, focus on developing the individual player, and great exposure in major college showcase events.
For the 2022/2023 season, the Dash GA2 teams will be competing in the U.S. Youth Soccer (“USYS”) Frontier Development League (“FDL”). By joining this league, the Dash are immediately eligible for the USYS South Texas State Championships and have the opportunity to compete and qualify for the USYS National League and USYS Regional Championships.
The Frontier Conference will include: Houston Dash (Houston); Dallas Texans (Dallas), FC Dallas (Dallas); DKSC (Dallas); Solar (Dallas), and Lonestar (Austin).
The US Youth Soccer Frontier Conference is excited to announce that teams competing in the Frontier Development League (FDL) will have a direct pathway into the USYS Southern Regional Championships.
My question is would you rather put your kid on GA2 team or an ECRL team if those were your options and your kid wasn’t ready for national. Pros and Cons?
