    At this point, the schedules only have been released to the clubs (and some clubs have released to parents as DRAFT) because ECNL gives clubs a few weeks to identify any requested modifications then the schedules are locked down by August 1st. Then it takes an act of God to modify a game day/time.

    It's one of our favorite aspects of ECNL - they are so organized and strict about their schedule. I'm able to buy plane tickets 4 months in advance at a deep discount. When we were playing other leagues, you literally didn't know the schedule for tournaments until 7-10 days before the event.

    Our last league game is October 28 and then it picks up again March 2nd (with Sanford Showcase in between on January 11-13).
    All good! See you in in the Florida State High School Finals and see you in the ECNL National Playoffs and then see you on the NCAA pitch!!

          I heard the talks have been ongoing. This may just accelerate them.

          Not sure how long Yo-Yo can hang on though. Wouldn't surprise me if Yo-Yo suddenly resigns and they make KW "interim GDA Director."

            WFF should really consider this very soon. Every day that goes by their bargaining position becomes weaker and weaker. It may reach the point where TBU offers a "mercy merger."

              It's time for a significant change at WFF for sure

                The WFF totals for the weekend in eight games:

                Goals for: 4
                Goals against: 50

                When you are -46 in goal differential, ALL you can talk about is development & ignoring the results.
                A good start for the WFF, way to kick on the season with a bang!

                  Never going to happen. Even a combined TBU-WFF could not field two teams that could support ECNL and GDA. No way would ECNL let them stay if this fictional merged club kept DA, and no way WFF would give up GDA to merge. So say this fictional club decides to still merge and drops ECNL then another club will get ECNL and we are right back where we started from. If you want your kid to play in the DA so bad, should have just brought them over to a DA club.

                      Exactly, many parents at TBU don't want to take their kids to Brandon to play; there is no reason for WFF to hand over GDA to TBU, yet this illogical argument for a merger continues.

                      Also if you are happy with ECNL at TBU why do you want GDA so bad? Based on what you read here, the GDA is no good, all the players at WFF are not good so what would TBU gain, but for some reason it is the TBU parents pushing for a merger.

                        Says you... How do you not think it might be WFF parents pushing for the merge. WFF parents know this would be the best thing for their kid in DA. TBU has better coaches and better training grounds.

                            Because nobody from WFF wants to be associated with the snobs at TBU.

                              Yes it WFF parents asking for a merger and they come on here say how much WFF sucks and still have their kid play there. That makes sense. You do have good training grounds that should be the deal maker right there. On second thought FC Prime has pretty crapy training grounds but they still beat some of the tbu teams, so maybe might need think that over. We will see how it goes against Concord actual and GSA.
