ECNL; E N Club League Dead?

[Unregistered]

That's why all the talent isn't consolidated with the two ECNL teams. It's all at Westside T/S.

20% winning percentage in ECNL. We know it will take time but it will get better.

Except they haven't decided or announced anything. Just a line item on next years budget. Once they do their due diligence they'll find they can't improve upon the ECNL and will act like this never happened.

US Soccer is coming for the money. They have finally realized what a cash cow girls soccer parents are. But make no mistake, they are coming.

Not until next year though.

They'll have to pry it out of the cold, dead hands of ECNL club owners. It's not going to be pretty.

ECNL is not dead quite yet. Will be 2nd tier next year which is still fun.

It's second tier already. ECNL in other states already make fun of it.

Yep, and if that's the prototype for the new USSDA league, it will fail and fold in less than a year.

20% against top level completion is 100% better than Thorns Academy or any Timbers Alliance team can do against watered down OYSA teams.

2-3 months to go.

Sounds more like the ECNL clubs are going to stay the course. That'll mean the USSDA is stillborn - just like the Thorns Academy.

Thanks for the link. At first I laughed at the website title but if you read the interview they discuss all the issues that has been discussed here. There was also a link to another January article about how if they're going to do it, they better do it right. So far it isn't going swimmingly - supposed announcements were supposed to happen weeks ago and the rumor mill keeps churning away.
