TBU 04 girls
Speaking of the DA and ECNL. I heard the TBU girls 04 backed out of OC DA, except for #14 and #02? Little birdie told me.Why are they still going to OC? Were they given a sweet deal?

Reality check!
On the boys side, there really is NO debate on DA vs. ECNL. If you don't already fully know that, then you really know nothing about the quality and opportunities in the DA program! ECNL will be the B-league, with B-level players, B-level coaches, and very little to no chance for a pathway to Pro, National Teams, or even D1 scholarships. Sorry to burst the ECNL bubble, but I speak the truth!

Originally posted by Unregistered View PostReally, where are your facts to back up no path to D1 schools. ECNL is a great path to those looking at college. It could be worse that you play in clubs with no ECNL and stay in the abys of GCF, CDL, FSPL and Region 3 for the few that get accepted. Yes DA is #1 but ECNL is there to fill the void instead of playing club travel. It can be far worse you are stuck with a club that offers none or both options. Glad SE region and others got boys ECNL.

Originally posted by Unregistered View PostA high quality league outside of DA is just what the boys side has been needing. It appears it will be Club based but other top teams can earn into the league.
ECNL will not fund the same or have the same opportunities. Please know I am not trashing anything but IMO, I just don't see it. If the USSF see's things going in the wrong direction player count or talent wise, they will adjust. The money and backing is already there.

Originally posted by Unregistered View PostI agree. My boy is not on DA but I have to be fair. The boys on DA are more talented and developed than the ones in ECNL most of the time. That does not mean I guess that if you are on ECNL you can't get into DA eventually. But it's all about the coaching. I would rather have my kid with less travel, and more focused in training in DA than traveling like crazy in an ECNL team. But I think at the end of the day it's all about the coaching and the effort your kid puts into it, as well as the players he is surrounded with. That's why I think DA is a better option. Just my opinion, not an expert here.
