Neither. Both very average.

Do you NEFC people ever shut up?

Agree. Will be tough for the BBA squad to improve much since its basically all the same kids. And Stars are probably just getting tired of being verbally abused by JD, they were starting to slip last year. All the NEFC crowing is justified, certainly in this age group.

Sometimes things that are said hurt. Specially when it is true.

That NEFC never shuts up so true

This is true. Stars and PDA B teams are strong teams in a weak NPL league.
There are plenty of strong teams in NPL and plenty of weak teams in ECNL (as well as the strong).

Generally, you see the strong teams like NEFC and Stars with some ridiculous cumulative goals for/against ratios. So the travel for competition thing doesn't even ring true. If the competition were all to play in one league (e.g. NEFC and the best NPL vs Stars and the best local ECNL ...)

Lastly - a nice referendum on GotSoccer points - Stars U15 ECNL beats "national #1 ranked"(by GS) Princeton. The Princeton team has been to 10 tournaments in the last 10 months. That seems a little much - hopefully they are enjoying the ride.

That Princeton team is pretty weak. Stars played terribly - would have lost to 5 or 6 teams that they face in their league - but still cruised in the 2nd half despite hitting a bunch of posts and bars. CASL team was very good, though.

Yep, they're a good team - in the top 5 or 6 from MA for sure.

Oh yeah? Top 5 or 6? HMM. Who is above. Cant wait to see this list!!!

Don't feed into it. It's people trolling and I think they're noticing that this is a completely different NEFC team than last year. I would have them a lot higher and will be keen to see them play Stars who are the self anointed top team at this age.

Of course they are. As a matter of fact CASL are the best 15's team in the planet. Otherwise how would you justify your loss?

does not matter in a college showcase. What matter is your particular child's speed of play, or noted lack there of by the college coaches.

Then tell that to your coach that doesn't believe in that. Now winning doesn't matter at showcase. Sorry, you Can't have it both ways.

U12g dad question here. If winning does not matter at collage showcases then why do they record the score even. Serious question. I have no clue

You have to keep score to keep competition at the max. How could that be done without points and scores.

The college coaches could care less about wins and loses but necessary for competition.

- Answer: well duh, for parental bragging rights.

To keep parents engaged. To pump up their interest in spending the necessary cash on travel etc.
