New Girls DA Clubs Announced

If you have a study that says playing 75 straight minutes does not substantially increase the risk of an ACL tear, but 90 minutes does, I'm with you. If it is a long study, please direct me to the relevant passages. I'll be waiting eagerly . . . probably forever.
I have done both my knees playing less than that...does that count?:D
 
GDA also has every game filmed. Seems small, but its a huge plus. Parents don't have to travel, but still get to see every game. It's also an excellent tool to help a kid improve. ECNL should implement this requirement. I'm sure it will once one of the club directors forms a video company that ECNL will then mandate all clubs use. ;)
some of the videos were really bad and couldn't really see the game. Maybe they could have just zoomed in a bit so the players don't look like ants on the field. Often completely useless for any type of highlight reel.

So your club contracted a terrible video guy? That’s half the games. Why didn’t you say something to the club?

Surf is the worst. They use that terrible video tracking software. The rest have been ok to great.

The purpose of the videos is not for highlight reels, it is to be able to review the tactical aspects of the game. You need to be able to see most of the players in order to see positioning and off the ball movement.

It took US TV directors a long time to figure out how to show NHL games, what with the US sport tradition of focusing on just the player with the ball (or puck).

I was at a bar a while back and they were showing a SD Gulls game. At one point I turned to my wife and exclaimed "I saw the puck!". Hockey may be a great game, but optically soccer is much easier to watch since you can almost always see the ball.

If you read any of the studies or articles I've already posted, you would realize I have already provided the information you requested. Instead let me leave you with a GDA stat of the day: more than 20 clubs (so far) thought GDA was so great that they quit in the first 1 1/2 years.

I think it's more like a dozen or so, but your point still stands. The flip side is that more than 50 clubs have quit ECNL in the past 1 1/2 years. I guess that doesn't fit your narrative, though.

I could not find the relevant information supporting your position in any of the studies you posted, that is why I requested direction to a specific page or passage. I'm still waiting . . . Your full of sh*t clock is ticking.
 
I'm sure it was due to your extremely high estrogen levels. You need to listen to all my advice and not just some of it.
That's it. Nothing more than that. You resort to lame childish remarks. Ha, you obviously have nothing left to spew that we have not heard.
On a different note, earlier you accused me of painting a false picture of you. In reality you have smeared your agenda and personality in words throughout this forum. Essentially you have given us a palate full of different shades/hues to pull from. And left us a canvas with a paint by number picture.
