Originally posted by Unregistered View Postthe debate, sorry arguing, shouldn't be about which league is better. There should be one league, with teams in div 1, 2 , 3 etc. There should not be ECNL or GAL or EDP or any other letter formation someone invents, but one league. It would mean that every team plays the teams at the same level as them with minimum travel.

BUT that will never happen.

correct me if I'm wrong, but aren't there way more teams playing ECNL than GA/GAL? That would tilt things to look like this

I see teams part of ECNL that did not win a game in GDA.
All the leagues have a handful of good teams, a lot of middle of the road ones and some really poor ones. And some of that changes based on kids transferring in and out of various clubs/leagues as well.

Originally posted by Unregistered View PostImplementing a break doesn't mean able to play both, just one or the other. The only REAL difference is that the player would be on the roster and maybe practice but not play unlike GDA that wouldn't allow that. That is hardly different since every club already had players not "rostered" that were playing in HS that would join the team the day after HS soccer was finished.
My kid did both. Her ECNL team was picked before high school and was rostered. So when hs ended, her club team picked right up. In fact, they had club games in December for ECNL getting ready for Sanford showcase.

Originally posted by Unregistered View PostGDA only allowed hs for kids that paid to attend high school. Private or parochial schooled kids. They were the only kids offered a waiver if they choose. Some refused and played gda instead.
But kids in public school were not offered a waiver.
So "implementing a break" is completely different and is open to all not only parochial/privately schooled kids.

Originally posted by Unregistered View PostObviously, but GAL trying to compare itself to ECNL is laughable. Yes, commendable that GAL was able to get 20 of the top 100 Mclubs from across the country to play in their league, but there is obviously no comparison.
FC Bucks, Delco, PDAS, PF? Not much. None of those clubs are head and shoulders above the Ukies, Classics or SJEB. In fact besides PF the other ECNL clubs are not on par from u9 on up. It will be interesting to see how this new league does without the HS hurdle.
Be happy where your kid is and don't worry about where your kid isnt.

Originally posted by Unregistered View PostReading the comments on this board - it seems like the the ECNL people aren’t happy with a new league - I have to question why? As another poster said if your kid is happy on her team - be happy and don’t worry about another league - competition is a good thing as it forces everyone to bring their A game.
My kid is actually on an ECNL team and I am glad there will be another league with a national platform as it gives us all options and forces clubs to be competitive or they will lose members.

Originally posted by Unregistered View PostUh huh, sure you are. If GDA couldn't make it with backing of USSF, why do you think this league will be competitive with ECNL when most of the better clubs (and many players) have bailed for ECNL? This league may not even make it, let alone be on the same playing field. It's a repackaged NPL, which makes sense because many of the clubs in GA were NPL not that long ago.
