Originally posted by Unregistered View PostEven if it was 8 months- That is still $3540!! Plus extras!! Is that worth it for mediocre SUSA training?? The ECNL league isn't the end all be all. I'm sorry, BUT it is crazy to pay that much.
Next, ECNL may not be the end all & be all, but it is the league where the majority of the D1 college players play and the league where college coaches find them. ECNL focuses on college exposure and college prep and they deliver.
What I'll never understand is the same people who criticize folks for paying the high cost of ECNL, always offer college ID camps as an alternative. Are they free, lol? Add up the travel, hotel and cost of clinic itself and you're looking at $500-$1000 a pop. And for what? If you're kid isn't on their radar, you're literally getting nothing out of it other than a sweatshirt and some photos to post on social media. The exposure of ECNL has been invaluable to my kid, introducing her to schools she would've never thought she was on par for and helping her filter out schools that weren't overly interested in her. I know a family whose kid plays in a different league, that has literally travelled the East Coast going to 4-5 ID clinics a year with none of those coaches ever attending the tournaments the team plays in, let alone coming to a league game or reaching out to her coach. And I think to myself, funny how ECNL costs are outrageous yet the $4K they spent on ID Clinics isn't? OK

If Fury had stayed in ecnl, they would still be in business today. Not sure they wanted or cared about staying in business but when they gave up ecnl, they gave up their status symbol and the tested business model designed to get the affluent girl youth soccer market.
That is how a crazy expensive club like that survives and somehow they gave it up - either intentionally or by mistake. Their reputation was catering to rich players.... some good, some not, but all with plenty of cash. Now a different club with assume that reputation.

Originally posted by Unregistered View Post“Catering to the rich”? What’s your agenda? Every club on LI has become “pay to play”. That is what happens when you have an area that lacks any depth of talent. If your daughter is among the top core group then everyone of these clubs will give you a financial discount to join. And BTW, it’s ECNL and would rather over pay to play in that league over any others.

How much is LISC charging for the GA? Are there ref fees? Per diems? Is the recruiting platform included? Do they have fees for fields? Tournament costs?
