    First 2 years after the merger had registration counts over 120 kids per ecnl age group.

        For years tryouts were done by age only. Starting about 2 years ago they had separate tryouts for ecnl

          Thanks linda. Just keep those boys from coaching

            Correct and many walked after they were given npl or state team offers but there were tons of girls at tryouts.

                  Fsa can't correct anything. Mass exodus at 04

                      How do you know that nothing is being taught?

                      Are game results your only evidence of what players are being "taught"?

                      Now doesn't that seem to be a fairly "razor thin" proof of your contention?

                        Why does FSA need to explain anything to anyone outside their own soccer community at all?

                        If FSA is providing a product that families are willing to invest in, why should that matter to you?

                          And what is your proof that the reason CFC rosters are so big is that parents won't go to FSA? Are you just like BJ Thomas? Just "hooked on a feeling"?

                            U16 team looks awesome, can’t believe parents pay $3700.00 for that!

                            As for the rest, $3700.00 and 26 member player pools should equal to undefeated soccer seasons!

                              CFCU ECNL rosters have been large for a few years now, they are still doing well while FSA gets worse. The only kids that go to FSA or OW are the players getting no PT. That is one of the only advantages of FSA - smaller rosters = more PT. But you pay for that with poor quality coaching.

                                Generally this might have been true but my daughter was at S+. Her team had 15 kids. 2 made the FSA team...
