Please tell me you are not serious ..."This" league will be different from the rest. Only the best of the best, with a check book, will play. It'll be the elite of the elite, the academy, pre-academy, and post academy top clubs in the nation PDL, USL, ENPL, ABCL, and XYZL clubs will compete for the national championships, all 200 of them.
And they'll only play at "Surf" fields.
Oh, and it will provide the next step to.......
No.Please tell me you are not serious ...
I feel bad for parents, clubs trying to feed this nonsense of a league, some clubs do not even tell the parents what road the club is going, I guess the founding clubs are done nowhere to go just trying to survive the inevitable, merge or the gripper will be knocking on the clubs door soon...
I personally never heard of this league, any information will be truly appreciated.

I think that is spot on..it's a last ditch effort to for these smaller starter clubs to survive. By keeping it small they can claim it is elite and prestigious to the parents who will eat it up. They will puff out their chests and pretend to be big dogs..but in all honesty they will be nothing more than big fish in a very small pond. Which I guess isn't all bad, it should give the kids some confidence on the pitch and that is always a good thing.
I hope it survives, but if they can't attract better clubs and players..it's going to be an uphill struggle.
What a load of sh*t! Always love posts like this one where the poster makes a statement as if he were some sort of authority on the subject. Speaking only of the clubs from our region who joined the southwest division, they are not smaller or starter clubs. All are medium size and have been around a long time. One of them has been around for over 50 years. Secondly, they will NOT be big fish in a very small pond. Quite the opposite, they will be small fish in a very BIG pond. Not new clubs and not a new league. Why comment on something that you obviously know nothing about? How ironic is it that so many posters come here to post and complain about the super clubs taking over everything or controlling everything and driving up the costs and when some clubs try to forge their own path, people who don't know squat, ridicule them. People should be cheering on something different than what the track suits peddle you. Then again, I see why people buy into the so cal mega club monopolies, its because they have produced so many full National Team players...not. I don't have a stake but I like to see someone come in and shake things up. We have the deepest talent pool in the country and our results don't represent that at the top level.
I though Rebels is in there instead of Sharks.Super-Y is a summer league, it doesn't compete against any of the Fall leagues and you can expect clubs and their teams playing in Super-Y to continue playing in CSL and SCDSL. Some of those teams may also play in the NPL, EGSL CRL and ECNL for that matter.
Super-Y fills a league play gap in SoCal for those clubs looking to keep their top teams playing in summer with the possibility of a national "showcase" event in December. That's all.
The "founding 5" clubs are not "starter" clubs under any argument. FRAM, Rangers FC, and BYSC have extensive track records for producing top teams and the talent that fills those teams. These clubs, including Oceanside Breakers and Sharks do have a problem in that they are neither in the DA (Sharks just got U12) or ECNL and want showcase events. SuperY gives them a potential national showcase venue. With the announcement of the SCDSL Discovery Tier and now SuperY, these teams can better serve the parents and players by giving them additional college coach exposure.
After all, isn't that what the players and parents want?
