    History has it. Tides change. Over the years clubs get stronger others fall off. Naples sharks was a good club now Florida Fire. Florida premier dominated the girls side early 90s. Where are they now. Lee county strikers had a few decent years. North ft Myers gritty few teams that did average. GPS new kid in the block everyone wants to be around the new kid until they get bored and move on. Cape Coral ups and downs. Cape develops the players at a young age and can't seem to hold on to players after 13. It's a shame combining the best players in southwest Florida you would have ECNL for girls and DA for boys. GPS has DA and will struggle until they get settled in. It is what it is and things will never change. Focus on your kid and find the best environment for them even if it's 2hrs away. Best players in SWFL do not play here.
    Florida Premier didn’t exist in 90’s? If you are going to comment on something, make sure you at least have your facts straight.

    GPS no longer has DA now that they eliminated U12 division next season.

    Best option for players is not to drive 2-hours to training 3-days a week. That’ll eventually make your kid quit and hate the sport. Find a good enough team, guest play when you can, make connections, find a good trainer for technical early and SAQ when older, and you’re fine. Your kid will have an enjoyable youth while still playing/training at highest level.

              What a huge disappointment! All this talk before for just a partnership and agreement with Prime?

                Read much? Look at the very first post, that's exactly what was posted. ECNL thru Prime FC.

                  No, it’s a partnership with Prime. Cape Coral is the “exclusive” SWFL club that can send DP’s to them. Not a bad thing, but definitely not like having actual ECNL yourselves. Basically, you have your normal club like you’ve always had, but now if you have a player or two that’s ecnl quality, they’ll be able to guest play.

                  I’m pretty sure clubs already do this without a “partnership” but maybe it will be easier? Either way, very disappointing.
