Discovery League

Legends South was 2nd in Group A with 6 points. Beach was 2nd in Group D with 5 points. As either a 2nd place team or a wild card it seems Legends South should have advanced if Beach did. So if SCDSL took recent performance into account perhaps not as odd a result as it first appeared. I still share your disappointment that Beach didn't make it though. My DD's played many games against them over the years and I've long been impressed with them as a club.

As the fall season plays out the results will tell the story. Maybe a blessing not to play the bulk of the schedule in the Norco 100+degree heat. CRL will be the opportunity to play the top teams in Scdsl, CSL and DPL. The fall league is irrelevant as nothing is on the line and politics win the day. SCDSL ends in an L egend$ for a reason....
 
Legends South did qualify for CRL...Legends West who is in Discovery did not. Sorry for the confusion on my end

Yeah, that was a surprising result for that Legends West team. They are a very good. Made the final 8 in National Cup and beat another Discovery Division team 5-1 last month. Excellent coaches in my view and impressive speed and ball skills on the field. Like Beach they must have been missing some players.

Thanks for the info. At this point it is what it is....on to Surf Cup! Good luck to your DD
 
I can tell you that CRL play-in for my son's team B2001 was a freaking disaster. Of 19 players, 13 showed up. After the 1st game, a GK/field player was ruled out with a concussion, leaving us with 1 sub. 4 of the better players (2 key members on the defensive line) were on vacation, at camps, etc. and players were playing out of position. I say this because CRL play-in results should have an asterisk for some teams.
 
If discovery games are all in Norco then shouldn't it eliminate all the scheduling problems with clubs and field availability? So we should be getting league schedules very soon (insert sarcasm!).

It should. I have first hand knowledge that the powers that be at SCDSL absolutely hated the scheduling problems, which are 100% on the clubs that were a bit "optimistic" (aka lied) about their field permits. The Discovery Division will likely be one of the first schedules released given ease of scheduling.
 
So its truly like the CSL Premier where the field is provided and is at the same place. CSL used to publish "Premier" magazine every week for the games.

I think Timmy said this whole thing was DE's idea and if so it also makes sense that the games are all held at Silverlakes, where he is a part owner.

Besides, Field House is a nice hole to wait while the kids are warming up before the game anyway and its just across the driveway to 1~4 turf fields.
 
It’s easy when all of the games are in one place. And the guy who pushed for this new division is the GM of the facility.

I'm not sure where you getting your information from, but the guy you thinking off was fired from there a while back.
 
It's impressive that SCDSL finally getting their act together

If you read the article on the front page it looks like the clubs have their schedules. I bet if the clubs had their permits together the whole schedule would be out.

Clubs always had their schedules early, but many not organized with their field permits and that's whats holding up final release quite a bit. Also few teams still falling apart, which will affect the schedule.
 
Lots of city/community fields don't issue their permits too far in advance. I think many are issusing fall permits last week and this week.

I would be shocked if what you say is happening because almost all the city wants the rec leagues' schedule first. The pecking orders are pretty simple. Rec use (soccer, flag football, winter baseball)>local orgs>out of city orgs.

Rec leagues are notoriously late with their field requirements.....

Great Park is county park managed by Irvine, and not a city park, so its different than most.
