    Found this online

    "What is the Development Academy 2 LEAGUE? (DA2)

    US Soccer is supporting the creation of the DA2 league, and while we expect the competition for the DA spots to be fierce with many qualified candidates and therefore our club will also participate in the DA2 league as a founding member club.

    The league will consist of up to "Nine" other "Developmental Academy Teams 2" from the Southwest Region.

    The DA 2 teams will follow a similar schedule to that of the DA teams, often-times playing at the same venues, on the same days.

    In order to maximize exposure for our DA 2 players, all announced DA2 coaches will be working hand-in-hand with the corresponding aged DA teams.

    We believe the DA2 will help provide a direct link and pathway to the DA for our DA 2 players.

    The DA2 players will also be able to continue to participate in high school soccer and will have Silverlakes and the Las Vegas Showcase built in to their annual schedule.

    DA2 players also have the potential to be reassigned to the DA team on a part-time and full-time basis based upon performance and circumstance.

    The DA2 platform will give Beach Futbol Club players every opportunity to continue to develop as high level performers on and off the field and the continued exposure that players of this level are typically looking for ."

        Sounds limited in scope....for now. If they can shoehorn more clubs into the system they try.

        There has been talk for some time about mls clubs splitting into their own league but the travel would be brutal

              Unfortunately that isn't what fills the rosters of many DA clubs - those two kids are the kind that want a pro career, not college, and will work tirelessly to get there. The average DA player is middle to upper class doing DA to help his college chances. MLS academies - FREE - will be where the nation's talent comes from.

                Still great stories... DAP doesn't need more than a couple of those kind of players per each classs to make the senior team to be successful
