        Full DA, Boys and Girls. Contracts to the leadership team at WC which can only be described as perfect.

          My guess is that in a year or 2 ECNL will make TBU choose to either put boys ENCL at the top of their pyramid of teams or will drop TBU from boys ECNL. The trend is out there for ECNL to want to no longer play nice in the sandbox with DA.

            Actually, FP will be TBU's travel partner for Boys ECNL.

              In a year or two, TBU will have DA at the top of the Boys pyramid and ECNL at the top of the Girls pyramid. Oh wait, they already do.

                LOL.

                What Fl Premier did was extraordinary in light of the other clubs in the area. They put their words into action and completely took an end run around all
                the other local clubs - and did so the right way. They delivered. Congrats and keep up the good work FL Premier !

                    Great work FPFC. Any idea if they are also getting it for the girls?

                      Now the real work begins for FP. We were at TBU when they were awarded ECNL. Even though they had a strong infrastructure in place and highly functional Board, the requirements of ECNL overwhelmed the club the first year and some things were handled well and some things not. Second year (and each year after that) got better. But even things that seemed straight forward were much more complicated than they anticipated.

                        How hard can it be? Can you give an example?

                          There is an expectation across those involved in the higher league (ECNL) that they will get access to the best of everything (including coaches, families, players, etc.). So things like field access, practice times, coaches salary levels, are expected to be the best the club has to offer. In many cases, the fees paid by the families involved in the higher league don't cover the true cost of participation in the higher league so the money is diverted from other parts of the club to cover it. If it is not handled head-on and constructively it can really bother a lot of the other families, players, coaches, etc. at the club. It's tricky.

                            This sounds about right to me. It will definitely be growing pains going from a nothing club, to a regional club and now trying to go to a national club. WFF couldn't make the leap, TBU did. Now we shall see if Florida Premier can make it through the 2-3 years of growing pains they will no doubt be in for.

                            You know who has good fields but no good teams to fill them? Wesley Chapel.

                            I think TBU's DA moves to the top of the market, and FPFC's ECNL and CC's DA fight for second place. But then again, maybe some newer/better league comes out next year and all the clubs are starting from scratch again. That's a US Soccer problem unfortunately.

                              Thats correct. I heard there were a lot of central florida clubs that tried to get into boys ECNL.
