    THE ENTIRE AMOUNT IS PROFIT....well except maybe what he spent on gas to drive there.
    Cmon man there are expenses. Plus there are not more than 20 in a group.... It is well worth the money. All the money I save on ECNL I can spend training my boy with him.

      I do agree that both league have good and bad clubs/teams. But the coaching is pretty bad on the girls side in the this country. For the amount of money being sunk into youth soccer, the play should be far better. But....if the goal is women's college soccer, you can't get any worse playing style, so the development matches the long term goal. Women's college soccer is shocking and there is great influence from college to the youth game. This also shapes our women's national programs. Watch the last World Cup, sure the USA were bigger, and faster than the rest of the team, but they didn't play the best soccer.

        It doesn't matter what teams he was watching. It doesn't matter if the ECNL or the GDA. There's a lot of bad soccer being played by teams at all levels and in both leagues. It's not all teams but it's a lot more than it should be.

            At one time I believe he was associated with FKK but that did not last long for what ever reason.

                As a former NT player who is trying to build he coaching business is he likely to trash DA/USSF.

                Plus, its girls soccer. Not sure what he expects. It will never, ever be at a similar level to the men's game.

                    He twittered did watch a U17 game. The talent on teams is very diluted with the many girls ECNL and DA teams located in close proximity. However if the training programs are strong starting at the very young ages there should be improvement. Should we go back to the U.S. Training Center concept of identifying elite players in games and then bringing them together for regional training.

                          Really? Is it to much to ask to pass the ball on the ground? Boy or Girl?

                            How is he “doing good for our youth”. I think the tweets he sent, since there were multiple, made him look a little petty...
