Look at the number of kids in the Solar and Slammers programs. PDA is much smaller.

Not sure that’s correct. PDA is enormous with 8 teams of 20+ per age group with boys side even more. 2007 alone have around 170 girls. Boys even more. Is Solar that big?Originally posted by Guest View PostComment

More important that Slammers and Solar are in an area with several other competing ecnl clubs. Solar is in the Dallas area with 5 other ecnl teams. PDA Blue in NJ almost has a monopoly( with only one competitor, (Matchfit) who makes it a sport to even offer a worse and more money-driven product as PDA itself.Comment

The largest clubs in the USA have 500-1000 teams across boys and girls. As many as 10,000 kids per gender in their player pools.Originally posted by Guest View PostComment

This conversation is so dumb. Both clubs are quality, who cares who they pull talent fromComment

No kick and chase with this team.
Elite athletes on several levels.
National title contender for sureComment

You can’t view PDA as PDA Blue. PDA has Blue, White, South, Shore, multiple RL’s, etc all in one of the densest population centers in the country. PDA has 1 ECNL brand other than itself to deal with in NJ. SO CAL and Texas are packed with neighboring ECNL clubs. I’m not impressed with the achievements of this monopoly.Comment

Is anyone impressed? Even the families that have been there for years complain constantly others are part of the inner clique which is quite big. Or new players don't have a clue yet...Originally posted by Guest View PostComment
