Beach DPL teams were very strong. But with the end of the DA and movement between the DPL players and the DA squad, will those teams stay together in the long run?
Say bye-bye-bye to Girls and Boys DA

Hey Dom, does that go for all of us? I promise from hear on out no more low blows from me I did any from the past. The past is the past. I've taken a few personal attacks and so has my little bundle of joy. Thanks Dom 
I like The Rebels too. They had some good players before the kool aid was served in SD and they got many of their top players taken. A'm shocked that Fact has said so many things about this little club just trying to survive. You know, it's good to be small right now and I believe Rebels will be in ECNL for years to come. Great job Rebels. Stay strong down south and let's ll be nicer now.

I believe there’s enough talent in the Southbay to achieve this, but I’m not sure if that’s the direction Pietsch is looking to go.

Beach, Legends, OC Surf (WCFC), Pats will have teams play in GAL, DPL, ECRL. Most likely is current DPL moves over to ECRL.
absolutely enough talent in the southbay. coaches and players deal with a lot of bs at beach. now that they are not da, is it worth it for them to deal with crap? (coaches will privately tell you what they think about the mang) without da, does beach change its culture or do people jump now that da badge is gone?
What league would the top team be in?
Maybe more than one. ECNL teams in norcal also play NPL.
NPL gets more bench players, ECNL gets more starters. But same team.
Stop talking in riddles. what do you know? One minute you have the inside track, the next your asking for information from people in the club to share. Spill the beans. Get off the fence what’s the deal. Why is Beach so rotten?

Doesn’t seem to know I guess. Has tried to smear the beach on many occasions.
My friends at the 05 age group from Galaxy Academy are now considering moving over. (Not sure how many). Not sure how they come into play but have heard nothing but great things about VB (ex DA) and KP (DPL) coaches.
I’m sure most of Galaxy Academy will come knocking to Beach.

i think with Galaxy Academy players needing a home and some not wanting to drive they will more than easily be able to field. I just can start imagining the headache it will be to decide who plays where and what justifies what league is the best fit for certain players. Can be a head case.
I have said positive and negative things about beach. I have also been clear on some of the issues I see with beach specifically and club soccer in general. I do not think this forum needs to be, no offense to others, a personal journal. Not one of the negative things I have said about beach has been refuted by others. Also, based on merits, if the people that run beach were a terrific group of people, then I think they would be in ECNL. Clearly I'm not alone. I'm glad you and others had different experiences.
No offense, no defense...all good bro. Were all here for deficient reasons. Every club has good and some bad. This is time of trickle down soccer. Work hard, follow the coach and the path will be ok.
Top teams will play ECRL (former DA) then GAL & DPL. Older age groups might be able to sneak into ECNL composite division if teams are needed.
Am I the only one that thinks this is ridiculous?
Blow out a bunch of ECNL 2nd teams in hopes of getting promoted the following season? Maybe that's the logic? Weaker ECNL club 2nd teams are in for a real treat if so.
I guarantee that clubs with teams in ECNL and ECNL RL will move players from the ECNL team to the RL team so they can pound teams.
Will these leagues publish rosters and playing time like DA? I'd love to be able to track and see how players move between the leagues.
And I assume that the GAL/DPL league will be sanctioned by a different governing body (US Club vs US Youth) so players can play multiple games in a day without any issues. And then they can probably also play on SCDSL teams to help with "development" of their 3rd tier team.
I want to get back to playing ASAP. But for the sake of these people making up their own leagues for selfish reasons- I hope they all run out of money before we can start up again.
Most were there before the DA badge.
No you’re not the only one. I am just glad my kids put books first and are #1 in the high school class.
