    Rip ecnl

    With the announcement of new MLS teams in Florida that will partner with Girls DA there really is not much shelf life for ECNL as the pipeline to College and national teams. ECNL money machine is focused on numbers now. Not top tier soccer.

        As much as USSF wants ECNL to go away, it isn't. It will remain a strong B league for players who don't aspire to top D1 programs or NT, or simply don't want to give up HS. There's plenty of girls out there who fit that description, and there's plenty of college programs that aren't top D1 but need players

          OH, so DA will be the A league for all the aspiring D1 players?? And anyone who doesn't play DA is a B leaguer? Lol. Where do you people come up with this stuff?

            Guess what dummy, my niece went D1 and played for sunrise! Neither. DA or ECNL club! Guess the D1 schools do look in the B leagues!!

              Really??? Sunrise, TBU, FKK, and others have been putting girls in D1 for years without either of the "top tiered" leagues. Kool-Aid on sale isle 5.

                  It's the same as the boys DA. But not all girls want to play top 25 Div 1 soccer. These are exceptional players and few and far between. We have a new GDA in our city just 20 minutes from our ECNL club. We have been approached about joining as its invite only. We know 1 girl from our team who is definitely leaving for DA, maybe more. Daughter is happy to stay in ECNL and play for mid level D1 schools. Oh the horror!

                    Those girls were already playing at the highest level before the explosion of ECNL the past 2 - 3 years. Now that TBU, JFC etc are playing ECNL the outsiders like FKK and Sunrise are seeing recruiting on their rising teams dwindle away to nothing. So now FKK is admitted to ECNL, and Sunrise is kicking themselves in the ass because they can't get in. Girls DA won't make ECNL irrelevant, the numbers just don't cover it, but anyone not playing DA or ECNL will definitely be at the bottom of the barrel as far as recruiting goes.

                      GDA is going to flop. You heard it here first. Clubs are already pulling out. GDA does not fit into their "for profit" business model. Find a a coach that cares is your best bet for your daughter to reach her aspirations, whatever they may be.

                        Absolutely agree. It's already apparent that this is being politicked and poorly managed at wff. They have the same failures who ran their ecnl program into ground and running this. TBU was so much smarter and will be the premier club in the area. DA will be the nail in many a club's coffin.

                          College players best focus on how best to get to grad school, not what division their college team plays in. Are you paying attention? We are in an every one for themselves world and it is getting worse.

                          These girls need to learn how to compete in a career market not on a college soccer field. - that is just for some stress relief and exercise.

                            Agree. I've been saying this since April (see the original GDA announcement thread). For the vast majority of girls who have access to ECNL or a high-level club team, the GDA sales pitch just isn't convincing enough.

                            One of USSF's biggest problems is their denial on the appeal of high school soccer. Elite players will stay away from GDA in droves.

                              Lots will play DA. Not to worry. There are plenty of players to fill up both leagues ans all will live happily ever after as long as we don't overly concern ourselves with winning high level international tourneys.
