What happens with DPL NE?

[Guest]

The only thing I know for certain is that NAL is not involved. NAL girls is NE only and this is promised to be a national announcement. SC has also been desperate to recruit DPL clubs to keep his league viable, wouldn't make sense for him to do that if they were merging.

Right. And look at the text in the posts.


“surely they won’t sign off on that, how does it fit together”
”don’t know, merger maybe”
“anything is possible”

a lot is said in that few words.

My bet is just GA and DPL. Even if they add a "pathway" from DPL to GA, that doesn't fix the fundamental, serious problems with GA and DPL in New England (mostly, uneven competition and pointless matches). So nothing really changes, pretty much a nothingburger for this part of the country.

If I had the energy, I'd spend some time thinking about how they can screw things up even more. Because these leagues never seem to miss a chance to do that.

Also, on the logo - most leagues use a shield type logo, not something to read a whole lot into.

Compare the ECNL logo to that one and you will find it is almost identical.

Using logo logic, it would be NAL. A shield with a star.

While this is the most likely scenario, that would be very underwhelming

Have to hand it to DPL for creating a bit of interest at least.

Best guess is an official GA/DPL league much like ECNL/ECRL.

Bottom line: if you have a girl in NAL and she has college aspirations, move NOW.

The DA logo looks like half of this new logo.

The hashtags they just posted refer to ECNL…

Interesting, it said #morethanaleague and #leadersplayhere

It also said 4.1.24 instead of 4.2.24 so maybe April Fools post…

Yeh, but it was gone before anyone could see it.

DPL aligning themselves with ECNL is the most ridiculous thing on here today.

Unless DPL is buying ECNL and rebranding, nothing they announce will live up to the hype they are creating. I’m prepared to be underwhelmed but I also appreciate the lead up.

One last guess for fun: merger of DPL and EA (both USSSA sanctioned). The star in the teased shield looks a lot like the current EA star. A fizzle for us locally.
