    What does GAL do in response? Add a low quality club 7 hours away.
    NEFc parent... not happy. Might be a deal breaker. It’s only once a year but ***?

      You don’t want to play a club that will have a -100 goal difference? Come on man!

        How would you like to be Empire United where every other weekend is now 6+ hours.

          Perhaps they will have a north and south conference type of thing. I’m pretty sure the powers that be had considered the travel involved before making the decision to allow Empire United into the league.

            Traveling farther means your team must be better. They just made all the teams a lot better.

              This is a new low even for select and nefc. Drive 7 hours for a win. Parents of both clubs must be sooo discouraged.

                Why not add the best available club in CT or RI or Mass?

                    What is the best snacks strategy for this drive? Does anyone have any best gas-up advice?

                      I get that there may not be as much good competition in that area but that much travel to play league games is absurd.

                          way to stay on brand Select haters- round up the drive time to make it sound worse. 406 miles from Select headquarters. 6h5m drive time. https://goo.gl/maps/PAfPvvnXQmTmZMtLA

                          you also failed to acknowledge how easy the directions are: Take the Pike west. Drive for 403 miles. Done!

                            should have added Albany Alleycats. Good club, 2.5 hours from the MA teams, 2 hours from NY teams.

                              To play 1 league game where Empire's GD will probably be in the double digits. It's a crap move by GA, plenty of other clubs that are stronger that are in the NorthEast. This was 100% market share grab that screws every club currently playing in that conference. Select wasn't in GDA when Empire United was, they were horrible in Every. Age. Group. and got the boot after 1 year. This is not a good thing.

                                and how desperate is the club to try and sell this in to their families? "It didn't work once but let's try it again!"
