Per Glenn Crooks US Soccer is pulling the plug on both academies. Terminating is the word he used.

The same Glen Crooks, who put his club into GDA only to pull them out after a year, who is also a member of the ECNL board (their biggest competitor)?

LOL OK....

It's on his twitter; he posted it and then ran away from it.

There are rumblings in the soccer community that the US Soccer Development Academy - on the girls AND boys side - may be terminated. Announcement could come as early as tomorrow. #TheCoachingAcademy

You can be sure, if the MLS clubs pull out of Boys side and it dissolves, they will do away with the girls in a heartbeat.

Bottom line PDA loses DA for Boys teams and the product is only focusing on MLS. Good riddance to Glenn and his band of Crooks.

Another victim of #Coronavirus.

This overhyped virus has greatly impacted the entire US economy and the youth sports landscape may forever be altered.

Yeah, Twitter also reported Colin Kaepernick getting signed by the Jets yesterday too.

It may be true but it doesn’t change that the ecnl is just as much of a joke as DA The girls teams play like brutes with zero soccer IQ and the ecnl boys are in a C league, at best. People like this piece of sh-t gloating are the reason our kids all get screwed. All these people care about is market share and ripping off parents for cash.

Not surprised the product is a joke. A lot of the teams in it would lose to good EDP teams, but then again the same would go for ECNL. At least you can play HS there....

My daughter is at a DA club and frankly I’m fine with whatever happens. I have no need for the travel or expense and I think reducing all of it will be for the best. She will still have a chance for a scholarship without all the national showcase stupidity that da or ecnl push as necessary. They’ve all ripped parents off for too long already.

Such a shame, great league filled with terrific “powerhouse” teams like SJEB, LISC etc. maybe the kids will actually do what they should be doing now, play HS!

Both boys and girls ECNL just got a whole bunch better …. BTW, did GDA become amazing overnight because all the NPL players and coaches were that good or because so many kids from ECNL teams went there as well? Asking for a friend.
