Considering that the best OPL girls are going to play ECNL and that the top boys teams are starting to play in the OYSA league, can the OPL still present a viable league this Winter and beyond.

PML was a great place for 3rd and 4th tiered teams that wanted to play local only. Sounds very similar when talking about OPL's structure. the OPL has a market, and they will make it because there are lot's of 3rd and 4th tiered teams that do not want to travel.
I'm sure OYSA looked at the PML and conceded that market to the OPL, it was a smart move.
conversely, there are 3rd and 4th Division teams that like to travel and that is where the OYSA leagues come in.
OPL and OYSA are different animals.

Originally posted by Unregistered View PostThe big concern we have is if our new league, the ECNL, will have a semblance of competitiveness to keep from having it pulled after one year. Being laughed at is a given unless we can keep a GD of less than 4 a game. A big challenge no doubt. The epic failure that is predicted could just kill girls soccer in Oregon permanently.

Another OYSA pandering thread? Can't really attack ECNL directly, so now you have resorted to a more passive / aggressive approach. Just stop.
