    If you're talented enough to play for the Thorns DA they will find you and invite you. No need to worry about it, all is good. Crazy dialogue about a platform that touches less than 1% of girls playing Soccer in Oregon.

    Why so much concern and interest?

      PAC Nw 6-2 CU Ecnl

      Marin fc 3-0 Mvla Ecnl

      Placer United Gold (2nd team) 3-0 CU Ecnl

      PAC Nw 2-1 cu Ecnl

      Eastside Oregon 3-2 crossfire wa Ecnl

      Washington’s Rush (6th in Washington) 3-0 cu Ecnl

      CFC (denied entry to surf) 2-0 pleasinton rage Ecnl

      Eastside Reign (2nd team) 2-0 over cu Ecnl

      Crossfire Storkson (3rd team) 2-0 over fc Portland ECNL

      California thorns 3-0 fc Portland ECNL


      I didn’t even attempt to go look for the failing Ecnl programs like Washington premier or Pittsburgh river hounds lol


      I know this must be hard for you but when you have these people spreading lies about Ecnl and the moment you look up facts that say otherwise they get angry.

      They do well in a severely gutted league but when they play everyone else they are below mediocre...


      Here come the insults or excuses??
      This isn’t news or an accomplishment. Ecnl teams a third tier these days. The only time they win is if they play themselves. Bunch of b and c team players.

      I could take 5 minutes and find 3x as much.

        Nobody ever said that HS teams weren't better than the GDA teams at westside thorns academy. It is not better or worse, just a different option for kids that might not want to play high school. It's pretty simple. No one is under any illusion that it's anything but kids soccer.

          This is against the rules. US Soccer needs to crack down. Nobody should be allowing them to play while rostered with a high school team. That defeats the purpose.

            Comparing a DA club or NWSL DA to a local HS program is beyond silly and really takes a special level of immaturity, which is impressive.

              Some messed up HS team coaches let DA players come play without training and just have them impact games, for the 'W', which to your point defeats the purpose of HS Sports. Well said.

                if they allow kids to play high school it would probably improve the turn out.

                  DA clubs are not worried about the type of player that puts a priority on HS Soccer over DA.

                  Thanks for the laugh.
                  You are a moron.

                  That is the reason why Slammers and PDA pulled out of DA.

                  Their players wanted to play HS.

                  You have no idea what you are talking about.

                    If you're a moderately decent soccer player the Thorns DA will find you and invite you. No need to worry about it, all is good.

                    Thanks Crazy dialogue about the ban on high school is annoying.

                      Nah man, the point of high school sports is to “have fun”. If you win, do you think that’s

                      (1) “fun” or
                      (2) “not fun”

                      Firing up a win against big mouth rival schools is a lot of fun.

                      Many of the gda players wouldn’t have an impact or even start for their high school team, but some would.

                        This is why you should never answer the phone if you don’t recognize the number.

                          We answered it with caller ID 'Portland Thorns/US Soccer DA' worth taking the call.

                          Never got a caller ID tag 'ECNL' but we did pick up an private cell call from a local neighborhood club, they solicitor had way to many promises and too high a price tag, it is what it is.

                            This is pretty humorous.
