    Boca to GAL?

    Might be a smart idea for CSA to push for the addition of Boca to this GAL league. They are local, the premier girls club in Ocean Co and have good facilities. Hopefully they receive consideration.

    Let a club in that can't even roster teams across every age group that is within the draw area of CSA Monmouth? Don't see that happening. Real FC, Next Level or PSA would get a spot before Boca is even a thought. Unless Altiris buys them.

      NJ is saturated between ECNL/RL and GA. That is a state that does not need more teams.

        Boca Juniors is a club with great traditions and more than capable of competing with the likes of CSA Monmouth. Will they get in not sure but wouldn’t it be in CSAs best interest to have a local club that is very similar to them as a convenient travel partner?

          One of the criteria that GAL has for admitting new clubs is the impact the new club will have on the market of existing GAL clubs (it’s on their website). This is probably true at ECNL too and might also depend on how much power/connections the club has with the league. CSA has to not fear losing market share to let this happen.

            From a business perspective, no, as it could potentially siphon off players that would have traveled to CSA-Mon that would rather opt for closer travel to Boca.

            Boca currently doesn't have an 07, 03 or 02 team and of those that they do have none play higher than Atlantic Premier I which in the 09 team. The rest play in Atlantic Premier III or Champions League and not even winning those. People dump on the Ukrainians getting a GA invite and all their teams played in higher divisions.

              Sorry but if CSA is worried about losing players to Boca that tells you all you need to know...why not make the new GAL league more local and include clubs like Boca, Wall, GPS South etc. would greatly reduce travel to VA and MD.

                Twin County might be a great candidate as well they seem to have really good teams across all age groups.

                    This is probably the same troll that was on PSA thread....Twin County is a rec level club no thanks. PSA National should get serious consideration.

                      Whats the criteria for applying and getting into GAL? Is it restrictive based on connections or can a club get in based on fairness and results??

                        It is supposed to be based on club wide performance and a desire to train kids how to play soccer but not centered directly to results.

                        Truth though, I would guess it has more to do with club ability as well as who you know and location of club.

                          In that case Twin Co should def be in. And perhaps Boca too. Not sure about Wall though.

                            Neither has a long standing tradition of high ranked play ie EDP 1st div or USYS and Boca doesn't have a team older than 06. Even if they combined they still wouldn't have a shot at GA.

                              BOCA .. LOL their teams are too busy ducking clubs that have a heartbeat .. CSA and REAL have begged to play them in a friendly the last two years ... CRICKETS.... what would make you think they would join a league with them .. You can find BOCA in the MOM and POP Clubs Labor Day Jamboree beating up on town rec programs ..
