And he is competing with Onyx at his age group. I'm no Onyx lover, but they do have a number of the better players at this age group, so what is Garrett's expectations? They can't be really high because the better players are already at Thusc and what top players other than these girls are at TA teams and they will go to the Academy. Garrett is a good college coach, what has he done at the youth level? -
Good God you are stupid. Not gotsoccer ratings, but gotsoccer gives a great history of the leagues and tournaments that teams have played in so you can compare results. Oh man, you are f'ng stupid. Show me where you go to look back in history to see how teams compare? And to let you know, the tournament director at Surf looks at gosoccer amongst other sites as a way of evaluating teams for selection as well as placing into Super or Gold. As your team has been in neither, you wouldn't know this. He doesn't us gotsoccer points, he uses it as a way to review the history of teams, who they played and the results. Clearly your team's best tournament has been Clash at the Border, so it's understandable why you don't understand.Originally posted by Unregistered View PostComment

On par? You don't know this age group. FC and CU are three steps behind.Originally posted by Unregistered View PostComment

To be determined after tryouts. Might well be the other way around by then.Originally posted by Unregistered View PostComment

Only the 16's
Yes the WST/TS 16's are a good team but we don't know how many may want to up their game or what consolidation at CU and recruiting at FCP with do. You know that old saying about counting chickens!Originally posted by Unregistered View PostComment

I have been talking to a lot of people about the choice between Thorns Academy and ECNL. This is all since the latest info has come out from the thorns. The lions share of the people I am talking to are leaning towards the Thorns. Seems like better bang for the buck and nice to be tied to the thorns 1st team.Comment

Don't forget coach Riley runs a very successful ECNL club back east as well. He knows a thing or two about competitive soccer in this country.Originally posted by Unregistered View PostComment

No I mean "up" as in ECNL
I think you read that wrong. If they want to play against BETTER competition than they did last year they need to play in the ECNL.Originally posted by Unregistered View Post
Look they are going to be broken up regardless so why hold back the better players if the folks have the money?Comment

Stop replying to your own posts
Remember it's only ONE team split between two ages and 24 spots for 19-20 games for $255 per game.Originally posted by Unregistered View Post
You might want to see if you could get an invite to the ECNL just incase there is no room at the Thorns Inn!Comment

Are they going to stay out of BOTH programs?Originally posted by Unregistered View Post
If they go to the Academy only 6-8 of the team will be carried over as this is a BLENDED age group and there will be other top players to make this team better!
Not sure why any player on this team whose parents can afford the difference would want to do the FWRL AGAIN as an academy member unless they have an offer in hand. That would kinda like being held back a grade!Comment

So you are a top 98 what to do
I have not heard very much from the parents of the 98's. There are only going to be 8-10 openings on the Academy. What are you going to do if the 97's are strong at her position? Are you going to NOT try to play ECNL?Comment
