My guess is Anson was there to take a look at LK which left the club shortly after of course.

Originally posted by Unregistered View PostOr their kids play at OW because of proximity, friends, etc. Location is huge. Just love how the DB CFC dads just fill in the blank of OW kids go to OW because of league. Not everyone is DB like you. But your narrative sounds so smart and eloquent. Its said with "fact" written all over it. You can holler every day about ECNL. I don't think that any OW parent would disagree about ECNL vs GAL or even when DA was present. Its an argument that CFC parents fabricate on TS and keep arguing in every possible thread. Keep spinning the thread. what else are you going to do during this pandemic.

Originally posted by Unregistered View PostAll very good advice, except I disagree about the futsal. It's a great culture for players and the competition is amazing. The training--I don't care how good--does not replace game day for what kids learn. It's a high octane environment--much more so than a soccer game--and kids get a lot of life lessons and sport lessons from it. Players learn to deal with nerves, they learn that you can be down 0-5 in first half and win it back if you're focused and driven. It's so much more than the training. Nope. Gotta go to those tournaments.
Having your kid play in actual soccer game against a top team with 80 college coaches on the sideline is actual pressure.
I suppose it's all about prioritizing where and when you spend the money on soccer. If your kid plays ECNL there's trips to FL, AZ, Texas etc. Those have meaning as it's a path to recruiting. Futsal events are just money makers for the organizers.

Just saw this same thread posted on the NJ board .... you have to be kidding me. This has to be one of the crazy Ginga dads. Who, in their right mind, would think this, let alone post it (on a NJ thread)?! Win something of substance before you brand yourself the tallest midget. What a bunch of losers!
