    Only if they want to travel an hour each way to practice. Sorry, but DA and ECNL are just dreams for most Floridians who don't live anywhere near a program. Also, what a waste. I have a friend and both our daughters played travel soccer their entire lives. His kid played DA, went to a small catholic college no one ever heard of on a scholarship. My kid was not nearly as good a player, so we focused on academics. She got a bright futures scholarship to UF and is not only going to school for free, but between bright futures and florida pre-paid all expenses are covered. Focus on academics, and have your kid concentrate on STEM classes, the payoff is much better.

      If they are on a DPL team it’s because they are not a top tier player or they would likely be playing DA or ECNL. Beyond that you may find some top tier players on some National League teams that don’t have a DA or ECNL club in their area. Any coaches scouting DPL games are likely D2 and D3 with your occasional lower level D1 if the film sent by the player is really good and you’re that diamond in the rough. If the DPL does grow, it could be a good recruiting ground for the 2nd and 3rd tier. The problem is the current competitive level is not good. Too much travel for mediocre competition. And ECNL Regional league will be competing for the same players across the country so youth soccer just suffers while DA egos fight the ECNL egos.
      well said, spot on!

        your point is full of stupidy and no validity! noone is saying that JUST BECAUSE you play DA or ECNL you will get a scholarship... your chances are just better

          What a joke. This should not even be allowed.

              4-0 is not what was said. The same is true for the 04’s. Misreported results.
              Did the 03s just lose to Miami lakes in FSPL? Lol. That’s gotta be a misprint? Well hopefully they ate a good lunch at 1000 north today! When’s the next showcase? Disney?

                  You sound like a Petrov parent who lost their team and are a bit bitter. Yup, lost today and beat Parkland yesterday. Could have lost yesterday and won today. Doesn’t matter. You’re still a ********* either way.
