Good night Oakwood

Pretty sad ending, time to find other options even if dare I say it it’s the hated ECNL. But they win the battle so we must join them now.

Every year Oakwood has applied for the ecnl. They would do anything to be in the ecnl. They will never get added to the ecnl. Individual have a shot but they better act quickly. Others are leaving and most will get stick with another bad offering from yours truly Oakwood Soccer Club.

The ECNL is not interested

With good reason - the state is too small, talent pool limited and OW is too close to FSA. Ideally FSA would be jettisoned for poor performance but ECNL is still battling back and won't relegate anyone this year or next.

2006 OW girls are way better than the weak 2006 CFC Ecni squad. Interesting to see what happens there. My guess is CFC just keeps the same team together that never wins.

Oakwood 06 is not that strong. They have a few good players which CFC will take-if they keep or play the same team they’d be stupid.

OW and the other DA teams will try and sell EDP as a good alternative league. Might be a hard sell but the majority of the mediocre kids will stay. FSA will get most of the top players. Maybe a few older kids who can drive themselves will take the hike to Bethany.

CFC rosters are already very full and families aren't happy. If they take any they have to be top starters to justify the addition

Please don’t mistake CFC as a club that doesn’t want to win.

While CFC is loyal to players, they have options in the club to move players around.

Back before the age group team, CFC had a u13 team that played the ECNL schedule and got killed every game. It was a mix of 2002 and 2003 players.

A year later with the change, none of those kids played ECNL. CFC took the top 2002 kids from the club and then built around them with kids from Yankee, FSA, Ginga and OW. They tried the same thing with 2003s. 02 turned out well because they already had some stars. 2003 didn’t work out as planned. CFC has 20 kids headed to D1 in the fall so the model works.

CFC is opportunistic and will look to capitalize on this shift in the landscape.

ECNL basically now has no competition at top of girls pyramid. There’s no chance anyone throws money at trying to compete with that

Lots of politics with that Club. Do they want to win-yes, but sometimes it takes a backseat to catering to certain families.

Should be, all of their top players came from other clubs within the past 2 years, but they still are not a great team.

I dont think so. They know that that FSA team is not very good, and I think they are all aware of FSA's history and where this team is likely to end up .... in the same boat as all of their predecessors.

Here come all the CFC parents who think their kids are so good when they’ve lost every game this year.
