We will see an entirely different scenario unfold than what occurred on the boys' side because:
Timbers and Thorns development track record is there for us all to see now - neither academy has been strong the last 2 years;
girls DA is going to be very expensive (boys DA is close to free); and
frankly Timbers/Thorns don't have the good will in youth soccer they might have had 5 years when MLS came to town.
Those are the local issues. Nationally, will let others argue about HS v. non-HS and other mandates coming down that are more of a question of whether a club wants to live with what USSDA dictates or like ECNL better, not sure they resonate with families one way or another.
