[QUOTE=Unregistered;2310688]So some families pay $0 and some famiies pay $10,000 only to steal kids that have been properly developed by TBU?

Doesn't seem right....[/QUO

Pretty much so. TBU has the best coaches at the youngest ages. Their girls have the best chances of success at the older ages. WFF has to 'incentificive" them!

This is the way the world works. Especially, in sports. Every sport. Both genders.

Sorry, that you “don’t think it seems right.”

They say that about all GDA that don’t win every game , the fact is that it’s GDA, better stronger competition and where the majority of D 1 coaches will look first.

The majority of the D1 coaches are going to look first at the 64th ranked team in GDA?

This is copied from the socalsoccer forum, but a member used the college soccer RPI formula on the GDA standings 2017-18 and came up with GDA club rankings. Is that the best measure? (Using College Soccer RPI formula) I do not know, but the topic was more of a Southern Caifornia clubs vs. Other states/regions, so not necessarily the typical GDA vs. ECNL bashing that is spouted on all these threads.

really? Lets look at the verbal commitments in the 01 and 02 girls age groups at TBU and WFF. Its very easy to see where the D1 coaches are looking first. DA in FL is a complete joke, and D1 coaches know it

Didn’t GDA start up last year?

You are a retard. D1 coaches are looking at players, not teams. They could care less what club your daughter plays for. If she plays for a DA club she will get seen, and that is all that matters, exposure.

Nice try Yo-Yo. WFF only had one team with a winning record above .500 in 4 years in ECNL and now you're playing the "it's all new to us" card.

Keep deflecting.... we are not at either club but do play in DA. TBU lost several top tier girls to DA which speaks volumes to ECNL's relegation to 2nd tier which is decided by families such as mine who have a stud.

The whole ECNL/DA thing stinks and is a disservice to all of us but it is what it is. We are at a Florida DA club and every D1 college coach that my daughter requested came to see her in Oceanside.

Oceanside was unbelievable , my 02 daughter asked 4 d1 west coast top 25 to come and look and they all contacted her after. No full rides where offered but we have 3 more years and she’s on their radar

Be very, very happy your daughter is not a WFF, as this would definitely not be the case if she was playing there.
Good luck to your daughter & be happy she is not at this crappy ass club.

This has nothing to do with girls leaving for the DA...it has more to do with girls leaving because they never had a permanent coach.
