One? Try four...easily four.

Spill the beans....or just PM me. I'm curious.

Where are WC's 04's in all this? Are they by passing that age group for DA?

WCFC '04 DS is playing DA next season.. The club will also field an ECNL squad, I think AF is coaching that team

No, no, no! This is an open forum. No PMing, lol. Do tell. We won't tell anyone.

Got it. I asked because they were not listed on the try out schedule. Thought they may have opted out of that age group.

thoughts on DA for the 02's wanting to stay with their current ecnl team?....which clubs will be strong at the 02/01 DA........and which clubs will be strong at 02 and 01 ECNL ......does anyone know any inside info on specific clubs or teams in the shake up??? which clubs hold the strongest position in each platform.......

 

[Striker17]

Bakers
They are staying in ECNL with their current 01 and 02.

 

[silverstreak]

oh wow, what does that do to their DA 02/01?

I have been told that the best players of the clubs have to be on the DA team per US Soccer. Is that a US Soccer requirement or optional club to club. They just like to win and he can't win if he can't sub 5-6 players at one time 3-4 times a game.

Where is this mandate that you heard about? Also, do you think DA teams will not want to win? And I have a younger at Blues and have watched Baker kids play. If they wanted to put together a DA 01/02 team, it would be amazing. From what I hear, there are other strong clubs doing the same for their olders. 02 and older are already being recruited, they don't want to shake things up and do NOT want to wonder into the unknown. It's dumb for USSF to implement something across the board for olders. If they wanted to kill ECNL, they should have went age pure and allowed HS play. Until then.....meh!

baker 02 can win with no subs ever I believe.... hell they can win playing 8v11.

sorry El Soccer Loco.........i know its probably an old topic, but I have not set aside the time to come here everyday and keep up on all 99 pages of conversation........to busy training my kids, but maybe you have an intelligent reply or possibly some insight?

Thats inaccurate info. Exactly how would that be enforced?

My daughter actually scored against them, once. Would that be something for her resume?

Actually, if it was recent and you have it on video. You could send it as a link to a college coaches with her player resume.

I am just messing around with the resume thing, no video however.

It is a rule. But like you say how would you enforce. It's all subjective.

I think this is a question the DOC's of these clubs want to know too. Meaning it is going to be interesting on who (players) choose what league.

The crap show starts next week.

I would love to see them try to tell me which team my kid is going to play on. If I am writing checks I am deciding where those checks are going.

Sometimes parents just do what they are told so not to make any waves in fear of retribution, I experienced it on my sons HS baseball team. $1200 a year for a public school to play baseball, the treasurer told me that only 1 of the starting players were paying. If your kid is a stud it is easier to play hardball with the coach, but for those on the bubble not quite that easy.
