Our kids will be enjoying their high school years and winding up in college programs as good as or not better than yours.
"As good as or not better" Which means you top out as equal, but not better.
I think most would agree with that.

Originally posted by Unregistered View PostGDA parents seem to be the ones trying the hardest to justify their choices. If their KIDS are happy that's all that matters (there seems to be a good deal of parent pushing going on). But in the NE there are only a few clubs that are doing a good job and are attracting talent. The rest are no better and often times weaker than ECNL clubs and have players that couldn't crack ECNL rosters before. That's where it's very tough to justify giving up HS. Even if your HS team is terrible then just don't play in the fall and train on your own. Don't spend all the time and money for a poor quality DA experience.
You even say so in your post. You comment:

OP here, I posted this just as a heads up for anyone who is interested.
For the record, my D plays DA. Her former club is an ECNL club, and she left that club to join the DA, even though the DA isn't as strong as a team (Yes she was offered a spot on the ECNL team as well). Monetarily, our choice was obvious as the DA training/travel/etc... is nearly 1/2 the cost of what the the ECNL team would be.

Originally posted by Unregistered View PostCosts are going to vary wildly from club to club no matter which league you are playing in, ECNL or DA. If your local DA is half the cost of your old ECNL club that's the result of the club inherently being less expensive, not that DA is less expensive.
