I feel like boycotting the USWNT game in CT in July, but then that only hurts the girls playing and my kid that wants to go watch.

The absolute best event in the country was PDA a few weeks ago. 300 coaches there and all levels represented.
These late season finals are over rated. If you want to point fingers, blame ECNL for putting their event in Seattle. Ridiculous.
This local ******* match is a joke. If college soccer isn’t your goal Oakwood is perfect

The N that play “high level” soccer at highschool age and in college far out number on or realistic have chance at national team.
High level is defined as will to commit significant amount time and money on competive soccer.
PDA is like the oldest most mature child saying enough is enough you don’t control us.

It thinks it knows what is best for its children and trys to control everything (taking away highschool soccer and subing rules. Like others noted the primary consumers of youth soccer players, their parents and college coaches if forced will revolt. Scheduling on top ECNL events may work in the short term but long run the consumers will do what they want. Focus on making a better product for them they will choose you however USSF seems more interest is a ******* match.

maybe when high level actually has some correlation to talent, we can then decide on a real system for it. as long as who can pay is the biggest single determinant, we will have this eternal fight for market share and dollars.
Reading the people trying to apportion blame one way or the other is at best amusing. at worst just tiresome.

The decision makers at the USSF are so far removed from what is actually happening on the ground that the rules they make are often out of touch and impractical. I can see why they would not trust the ECNL management
