Please post the coaching credentials standards for a club that plays in the ECNL

Were the Oregon clubs Who moved from the OPL to the EC NL granted waivers from the so-called mythical 'ECNL coaching standard' really doubt there is one that exists based on the level of coaching here At FC Portland and crossfire United.

US soccer has detailed the coaching qualifications and credentials needed for GDA for everyone to view and is very transparent is this a new directive from the EC NL after US soccer raise the bar?

The worst coach at CU or FCP is like a soccer God compared to the best coach at Thorns Academy. Fact.

So you agree that all the rest of your "points" were pathetic lies and now you think you can make a point on the single "coaching credentials standards" point. Do your research and come back to us with some other inane pathetic lie when you find that the ECNL uses the same coach development resources and licensing requirements as the GDA.

You must be a coach at CU or FC. Or stoned. Or stupid. Or any combination of the 3.

We must have because your coach cant seem to stop talking trash about the players they do have and continues to try and recruit your kids spot away. Says alot when your coach doesnt know how to do anything but lie and sell.

Typical oregon ecnl parents and coaches right there...

Google search populated the requirements to coach in the USDA in less than a second here is the link. http://www.ussoccerda.com/girls-academy-faqs

I agree that you don't have a leg or fact to back you up when it comes to supporting any of the myths or urban legends told at FC Portland or Crossfire UTD as a matter of transparency.

For some reason you are fixated on the NWSL Portland Thorns GDA teams that will be competing in 2017-18, which reveals your true insecurities and obsessions.

Fact of the matter is the coaching staffs for the clubs that field teams in the ECNL league have listed coaches online for 2 years and you can't refute all of them have at least a 'B' license regardless if there is a unspoken or written mandate they have such credentials, they don't and some never will. It is what it is.

Deal.

You are correct, only the 'club' can commit to US Soccer they're sending their best/elite players to the GDA age group teams in 2017-18, as expected due to placement and selection into the United States Development Academy.

If a girl at at GDA club is one of the best players in her club the DOC or coach will convince her this is the path to go. Just like that same club coach did when the ECNL was considered that regions best option for competition.

The difference going forward with the GDA is the higher emphasis on player development & coaching education vs the getting as many games as possible in model as the ECNL. The ECNL is still devoid of any coaching standards (license) or club acceptance criteria, outside the ability of parent to pay for travel.

See the Oregon Clubs who have played in the ECNL as examples of just migrating the rec/classic/hs level coach along with the players from the oysa/opl to the ECNL nothing changed, they just joined another league and all the sheep followed and payed through the nose to travel.

There was not any vetting process to join this league other than the guarantee of financial disposable income of parents to subsidize this league experiment. It was a local club decision here in Oregon that never had a membership parent referendum prior to joining.
'Taxation without representation' , as the OPl leftovers love to sling the word TAX at the OYSA for it's services. For levity sake.

Ship of fools.

Please stop posting this kind of stuff, it's not very flattering to our local clubs. Even it's accurate. Got it! Timber lemming Clown!!

PSV union can barely field teams!!!! Us soccer is only interested in taking over.

GDA will just be another league with high school restrictions. It won't work the way they want it to. 1/2th of the people in other forums are split. U need 100% support for it to work .
