So they are going to spend on average 4 hours in the car commuting to practice? Great club and all...but...

Who are we to judge? I thought there was a Looney that commutes to WC from Albany.

And how would you know, are you at every game? If not, STFU

Not every game, but watched NEFC play some pretty crappy competition in GDA. Once they go the way of Stars and PDA, there will be even less quality in the northeast...

Therein lies the one of the biggest issues with USSF. If they're going to force NT prospects to stay in GDA, even if that means staying with a crap GDA club, it will never succeed. GDA doesn't capture all the talent and some players simply don't have a decent GDA option near them.

Worry about the NT is stupid. From a story about press:

"Everyone thinks if they’re not on the U14, U-16, U-18 national team, they don’t have a chance. Look at Christen. She wasn’t on the national team radar until after she finished college! She was never on a youth national team. None of those sixteen-year-olds we played that day ended up playing on the World Cup winning team with players the same age! "

Just work hard wherever you play.

Yes, and she really isn't even that good, besides there are like 40 players on that team.

his kid isn't Penn caliber

Its not him, maybe my kid is a little better, maybe they think she is, too...

***? Mock a silly commute time but not a kid. Don't be an ass.

Won't happen. USSF has dug it's heels in on that one. If they allow it for girls then they have to allow it for the boys too.

Players do this by just joining the gda team after high school season ends. There are lots of examples of this so it does not seem to be a problem.

Oh come on. It's a soccer league for kids like others. separate marketing from reality. Is some kids want to play HS and find a good match at a Gda club as well...no one cares

There are quite a few girls making that drive and they think it’s worth it so....

P.S. We were at the Penn State camp last week, and she was grouped with the top 03 girls, most of which were DA girls, NOT ECNL girls, BTW.

Most of the commits at Penn State committed while they were in ECNL

Any predictions on what the ECNL meeting in Vegas is all about? (Did all of the ECNL DOCs really have to fly out to Vegas for this announcement?)

Did they HAVE TO? No. But, it's a free trip to Vegas paid for by the ECNL (probably the NPL) parents at your club, so why not go out, live luxuriously for a few days, drink, gamble, and womanize? Beautiful!
