Girls Development Academy

Ah hah! My deductive Sherlock homes reasoning has it figured out. I will not let the cat out of the bag. You are right I did say that about 6-7 years ago. Has it been that long? F'n -a. I must admit I was a bit naive back then and hadn't realized the impact that High School has on young ladies. Our kids weren't even thinking about that they were just happy playing any chance they got. Could you imagine blowing that experience all off with the hopes of making - $30 K a year if you are lucky and maybe securing a 1-4 spot slot every 4 years by spending it in a residency program. I will stand by my most recent comment - lunacy. If it was millions or hundreds of thousands maybe. Now that I've changed - haha , get an outstanding degree, if you can play a bit and travel after college do it. If you kick ass and get called in great. But again tell their is lucrative money residency would nuts.


I figured you would remember. Yes it was many moons ago but you don't have to remind me about how crazy this journey was and how fast it went by now that we are done with club. I agree 100% with you as I usually do.

Yes. Get an outstanding degree from a great institution. Play for fun and if you get a call into the USWNT then great. Otherwise use it to travel to some nice places, make some great friends and have a great experience. Tell your little lady that we wish her luck and I look forward to seeing you both in November.

Ditto!
 
Maybe all those SoCal clubs sharing the names Surf, Arsenal, and Galaxy will become Surf or Arsenal or Galaxy United.

Oh I'd love to see that happen. Hilarious!!! Surf are the masters of branding. Give up the name? Not in a million years!! LOL!
 
I have said a residency program for the girls? If so was I drunk? With no money in womens soccer that would be lunacy. Just to get players for the NT? How many times have I said the NT is not the goal. Lucrative pro soccer is the goal. The NT happens from the outcome of lucrative pro soccer. The US has it backwards. If they truly want to move forward they have to fix that. Who makes the money? Barca and Real Madrid or the Spanish Federation? Who trains the players the clubs or the federation. That is what is wrong here. We can't get that figured out. BTW Santa Clara is an RPI game Beijing is a scrimmage. So Sunday might be another play 29 game and figure out some more personal combinations. Should be fun.

So who was tougher? Beijing Normal or SCU?

Pretty funny. Clearly Santa Clara was tougher. They clearly were without their WNT players that they had against the U20's. Funny though. His daughter played well. That is probably what mattered most to him.
 
overzealous parents best not push their kids into GDA... They could end up like this guy:

Former Raiders QB Todd Marinovich found naked, booked for drugs
 
The only club in CA that trains and plays possession soccer is DeAnza. The rest of Cali relies on athletic ability. Beach is irrelevant until you win something that matters. Zoom Zoom >>>>>>>>>>>>

You clearly know very little so please stop proving it. Work with your kid. Tool!
 
I am only stereotyping the typical SoCal player. Defensive backs that kick it to a sprinting forward. No technical ability or midfield required.

You wouldn't know technical ability if it bit you in the ass. That is why your kid is still going nowhere.
 
Call me names all you want but have you seen the Slammers play lately? It is total U10 boot ball. It is embarrassing to watch. Another pathetic boot ball club is Surf, they come in a close second. Both have fast players to chase down those balls......

You have got to be the dumbest person in Arizona and that says a lot. No wonder they threatened you. Tool!
 
Ok CaliKlines, here you go.......the great liberal academic institution your daughter is going to be attending....

http://dailycaller.com/2016/07/20/christians-win-in-north-carolina-take-down-university-speech-code/

A Christian group at North Carolina State University (NC State) won a substantial legal victory, as the university agreed to revise a speech code that blocked them from talking to fellow students without a permit.

Until now, NC State’s speech policy included a provision stating that groups had to obtain a permit prior to approaching students, whether it’s for commercial or non-commercial speech.

Grace Christian Life sued the school in April, arguing the policy was selectively enforced in order to keep the group from handing out fliers or inviting students to upcoming events. The group claimed they were first ordered to obtain a permit, and then after doing so, they were told they could only speak with other students if they remained behind a table set up by the group.

NC State defended the permit process, saying it was necessary for maintaining safety and order on campus. (RELATED: NC State Warns That ‘Land Of Opportunity’ Is A Microaggression)

The settlement comes a month after Judge James Dever granted a preliminary injunction against NC State’s speech policy, finding that Grace Christian Life was very likely to succeed in its challenge.

The Alliance Defending Freedom, a conservative legal group that backed the lawsuit, lauded the outcome in a statement.

“Students of any religious, political, or ideological persuasion should be able to freely and peacefully speak with their fellow students about their views without interference from university officials who may prefer one view over another,” the group said in a statement. “NC State did the right thing in revising its policy to reflect this instead of continuing to defend its previous policy, which was not constitutionally defensible.”


Do you have any original thoughts or are you a typical Arizona d-bag?
 
I am left to conclude that Messi FTW has been banned?

But I would say this in response to his ridiculous claims... Stanford and Notre Dame and UCLA and the rest of the top 25 NCAA universities recruit many, MANY more players from the So Cal ECNL teams than the Arizona ones. They heavily recruit Blues, Slammers, WC, and Real. Arizona would kill to have their players recruited by those institutions the way Slammers players (who he denigrates) are.

So either he is a soccer savante who should be handed the reigns of the US National Team asap, and knows more than the coaches of the top 25 women's soccer universities in the United States, or the facts and his uniformed opinions are at odds.

In short, he is a boob spouting boob opinions based on homer nonsense rather than the facts.
