It also shows that low level ECNL teams are on par but not better than some EDP teams. -
I have to admit I like the new National League logo and the “earn your place” slogan. They’ve improved the marketing of the league at the right time. Only time will tell if the league makes inroads with colleges though.Comment

It would be a really tough sell. As much as posters claim-"they don't shop the badge"-they actually do. Not because being in ECNL/GDA automatically makes a player a superstar, but because that's where the majority of the top clubs across the country are playing.Originally posted by Unregistered View Post
As others have stated, if the top level of USYS is comparable to lower to mid-level ECNL/GDA teams, what is going to attract coaches to forego ECNL/GDA events to attend USYS instead? It's about bang for the buck and relationships. That's not to say a top USYS team can't make some noise and get some attention, but they'd have to be head and shoulders above the top level ECNL/GDA teams-and that's unlikely.Comment

As long as GDA & ECNL clubs are playing their 2nd, 3rd and 4th teams in USYS, they'll never emerge from behind the shadows.Originally posted by Unregistered View PostComment

FC Stars, Eclipse, Mich Wolves, PDA play their second teams in ECNL. That's why it's always going to stay in the shadows.Originally posted by Unregistered View PostComment

Well those clubs still play their 4th, 5th & 6th teams in USYS-so I don't really think you're making a good point, lol!Originally posted by Unregistered View PostComment

You guys are a bit off base, for example a club like STA has two very similar teams at DA and USYS 05 level, a lot of the girls on the USYS team are great players just do not want to forgo playing HS!Comment

It’s not even close. The DA 05 team is much better.Originally posted by Unregistered View PostComment

There may be some good players on the USYS that are capable of playing DA but as a whole the DA team is way beyond the USYS teamOriginally posted by Unregistered View PostComment

Because that's one place where they can shine. Typical scenario when a 20+ HS goal scorer that cant score in an ECNL game against a decent defense.Originally posted by Unregistered View PostComment

Haha, that’s a good joke saying the STA 05 team is better than the 05 DA team.....not even close as maybe there is one girl that would be good enough to play DA.....the DA team would beat them 6,7 nil easy...but keep dreaming.Comment

US Soccer won’t accept quality players playing at a DA club but in another league. They will get their chance when the current team go to Dynamite.Originally posted by Unregistered View PostComment
