    And what clubs and some parents don’t seem to realize is that most parents could care less about the league. It’s just a bunch of letters and we don’t care. We want competitive, close to home and our kid to be getting better.

        Judging by the amount of negative comments on here that filter into every thread regarding one particular league, I'd say for parents the league absolutely matters. Not sure why, but to them it is quite obviously a very large concern.

          JAL-Just another league - and unfortunately now that DA folded sooooo quickly and club directors needed to save face and switched over to the GAL-an afficiliation of DPL, the league will be thrown out with the trash. There is no more DPL. The GAL has taken over and has no need for the DPL.

            True. League seems to matter a lot to some. Maybe it's just us parents who have kids on B teams and are fine with that who don't care. I know our club acted like DPL was a step up but it's not and we don't care. Could have stayed in NEP and been just as happy. Well, happier because I'd have a schedule!

              How would DPL work at this point? No games allowed in RI so no home games for Bayside. But RI people also aren't allowed in MA so they can't play any of those teams in MA. ME isn't allowing MA people without covid testing. ME and NH teams can play in MA but probably don't want to with the rules. Other than NH hosting every game, and who cares to drive there constantly, what is even the answer?

                Yes to the parents on this thread. But my guess is only 5% of soccer parents even know this website exists.

                    There aren't DPL teams in CT, are there? Well, I guess they could play there, regardless.

                      Yes, these are the helicopter parents who have a giant ego and live vicariously thru their kids.

                      The worst.

                        Okay so I am accepting that there is no schedule yet but is there at least a start date? NEP starts 9/13. Is DPL at least 9/20?

                          All the higher level CT teams are in EDP, more half of the EDP teams are from CT

                            Correction not all, Oakwood being the only one that is in GAL

                              We were told the same weekend as NEP, 9/12 or 9/13. But that was about 4 weeks ago now so who knows.

                                Now that DA is gone and nervous club directors quickly started GAL they totally sacrificed the DPL so GAL could start.

                                DA gone For good
                                DPL most likely gone this fall For good
                                GAL Most likely gone this spring for good

                                Way to go. 3 strikes and you are all sent back to NEP or maple!
