New Girls DA Clubs Announced

Age groups play at the same time each day therefore if you were an 05 making up two games in a weekend you will play at 10 AM Saturday at 10 AM on Sunday therefore there is no 24 hour rule violation

Not always true- my dd's team has multiple double-headers with less than 24 hours rest. A 3pm game followed by a 9 am game has happened more than once.

With the frequent rain outs this winter a lot of games have had to be re-scheduled and there are many teams/players that have to play back to back games on the weekends. Doesn't that break DA's own edict regarding 24 hr rest period between games? If they have to schedule Sat/Sun games they should lax their substitution rule for teams affected. Just sayin'

Does DA strictly enforce the substitution rules other than the no-re-entry rule?

In hindsight we did have a 5pm Sat game followed by a 10am game the following day so I do stand corrected.

We were right there with you but I'll see your 5pm to 10am games and raise you a 7pm to 8am turnaround. And add a loss of an hour for daylight savings time in between and its 2 games in about 12 hours from OC to San Diego...I guess the 24 hours is more of a guideline than a rule ;)

It is a rule, that of course can be broken when the makers of the rule deem it necessary. Do as I say, not as I do.

Per the 2018-19 DA Rules & Regulations , Section IX.C.1: "Double fixture weekends may be played; however, a minimum of eighteen hours must be provided between both kick-off times to allow for necessary travel and recovery."

Based on the statements from several posters, this doesn't seem to be followed in all cases, but the DA rule between kickoffs is 18 hours, not 24.
 
Eagles have been losing their better players to Real So Cal DA ... it looks like ECNL is turning into the lower league.

Eagles and other clubs like Arsenal and Strikers will have to be ECNL because they won't be able to compete with DA. DA is much more established with the boys and will be/ is with the girls.

There will be resistance to change like anything else... kicking and screaming.
If they want to play lousy soccer in high school then they will play DPL... not a big deal really. Unless it's the half dozen private schools, no one is watching those games.
 
so, with so many top clubs leaving the DA do you think they never had the best players or are all of their best players leaving their clubs to go to a
club that still has DA? It doesn't make sense to say that ECNL is turning into the lower league. Also, not sure why you are saying that the DA is the more established league with so many solid clubs leaving the DA and returning to ECNL. Seems like a lot of upheaval to me and not anything stable.

Who has officially left DA?
ECNL is a two pony race Blues and LAFC..
ECNL is the Coast league of Elite Soccer.
DA is much stronger, more money, affiliated with pro clubs, and a large college presence at the showcases.

If you are married to ECNL, then of course you don't want to see this.

Time will tell... womens youth soccer has mutated from what it was 10 years ago.. and just when you think you have a handle on it.. it significantly changes... change has been the only constant.
We have been in both and love it all.
