    How do the clubs co-exist in both US Club Soccer and US Youth Soccer? My understanding is that DA is the elite league for US Youth, and therefore WA Youth and Seattle Youth. ECNL is US Club Soccer. How do those associations let the clubs pick and choose? Also does that mean that the top teams can't compete in State Cup?
    ECNL teams play in their own league under the US Club Soccer umbrella. RCL teams play in their own league under the USYS umbrella. ECNL and DA teams do not compete in State Cups.

      State Cup is mostly a joke now with boys and girls Ecnl and DA/GDA. Same in OR and most other states.

        At the higher levels, DA has had a positive effect. At the lower levels, most of the U14 and below clubs, it's basically putting a badge on a neighborhood club.

          How does ENPL fit in all this?

            Don't pick on Snohomish.

            Certainly, they're not as strong as the Big Five. A lot has to do with the available talent pool in the North Sound area.

            But they're one of the few clubs that offers free training to their DA program, and presumably their BENCL program going forward.

              Just shows you US Club thinks their USN NPL is a joke.

              And waaay below NPL is PSPL, where a bunch of clubs call themselves ‘Premier’ but play in a third rate league.

              Why didn’t Issaquah make ECNL? Or Surf? Or any other club that says they produce top players or aim to compete regionally or nationally?

                Be honest, kiddos.

                How many youth clubs "produce" (a verb that gives way too much credit to clubs and coaches when we all know talent comes first) anything resembling a top player?

                  No one said pspl is on a par with DA or encl . They did say they could quite easily match the rcl division 1 teams right now . I have watched quite a few div 1 games and the level is really low ! The top teams are good in the big clubs but after that they are just a very middling bunch who overpay for a very poor product . Your more then welcome to keep drinking the cool aid though 😉

                    They produce the best cone runners I have ever seen ! Parents in America love seeing drills . They think drills can emulate every other American sport where the coach is the all
                    Encompassing god ! There is no freedom to create, it’s just overdrilled rubbish where everyone can look reasonable quite easily .

                        Is Crossfire Premier dropping its HS DA program, or just U12-U14?

                          Gunners have tried to join WYS for awhile now. Eastside keeps blocking the move.

                            Ridiculous how a club can block another’s teams path . Tells you everything you need to know about why these clubs exist .

                              HS Soccer?

                              Does anyone know if the clubs are going to take March - May off to allow HS soccer, or are they going to play through the spring?

                                Rcl?

                                So does that mean those 6 clubs won't have teams in the RCL? or will their 2nd and 3rd teams will be competing in the RCL?
