Thorns Academy Year 2

[Unregistered]

Same with new ecnl u14 teams?

Been practicing for months. Playing games too. Rosters are known to those involved. Thorns won't start until January.

Tom took every girl possible for his precious little U17 team who is falling apart.

Is that the same team that has 5 D1 commitments already?

That must mean they've actually been practicing and playing real games, unlike the Thorns Academy...

Playing games where? League? Tournaments?

Why are the rosters a secret? Unless ecnl is trying to hide who is playing. If good players are playing, ecnl teams should post roster to entice more good talent and also more players for next year.

The previous poster just doesn't know what they're talking about. That's what happens with the noobs.
The ECNL pools have been selected following tryouts. No ECNL games have been played.
ECNL rosters have not yet been set.
The earliest that U14 ECNL teams will play will be late this Fall, and ECNL league play doesn't start until after the first of the year.

You can't even submit rosters to ECNL until August 1st. Calm down, buddy. No enticement needed. Those in the know, know it's the best. The rest come on TS and complain.

So CU U14 ECNL playing in the THUSC United Cup and Surf Cup don't count as games? Or FCP U14 playing at NPL Finals doesn't count as games? Or NWCL in late August won't count as games? And rosters have been set. Neither club took more than the 30 players roster limit so all are rostered.

You don't read very well. He said no ECNL games. Not no games. All you did was prove his point. And good luck with that 30 player roster. Should be lots of development there. Is Tom going to do with this team what he did with the U14 team last year? He soaked the parents for thousands by going to tons of out of state trips yet put together a team that wasn't successful so he dumped them. Of course, if it works out and the team is somewhat competitive, he will keep them.

Isn't it better to have 30 top players than what the Timbers teams have : zero

Only point proven is the one on the top of your head.

It is laughable that you think there are 30 top players that will be on one team. Instantly I know that you have no experience with top.

Well, how about posting the ecnl pools of players who made it like Thorns Academy did? Being secretive makes folks think you have something to hide. The '02 thread keeps claiming only 30% of top 01s went out for ecnl. '02s are starting to plan for next year. They'd like to see if it's worth doing or not.

Thanks Tom. You hate it when people prove what a scumbag you are.
