Say bye-bye-bye to Girls and Boys DA

All of these discussions are interesting but may be irrelevant for the upcoming season. Colleges are considering extending digital/distance learning until 2021. If that happens, bye bye soccer this fall. Things could get even crazier if that happens.

Good point for collegiate soccer, I think the biggest issues will be fans not players and I am hearing for all sports they are considering putting resources to a "pay per view" model for all college sports. No fans and you would have to pay $1 - $10 to watch a live streamed sporting event. It won't completely make up for what they are missing out on from ticket sales, merch, etc but it's at least something coming in where they can stay afloat. Obviously college football and basketball could just do advertising because they have a bigger fanbase.

As for club/ECNL/GAL/any other acronym that is created before fall.....tournaments are out, way too many people in a small area plus to get food whole social distancing could take 1-3 hours or more easily. I think league games only with a separation of one hour between each game and games will go from 8 am to 6 pm. Temperature checks before each player can begin warmup, parents on sideline will be asked to only send one parent and keep social distancing, they will have a separate field for warmups, things like that. It is a lot of effort but this is the new normal until a vaccine is out or we have OTC tests we can buy. I do not think any of these leagues can survive not having a fall season so unless they see the writing on the wall, they will make it happen.

I don't think college sports not happening will have the biggest outcome. It's about will our youth be in school come August. Since no school means nightmare for parents, they will do everything possible to make it happen. No college kids playing in college, doesn't prevent parents from working. It's a big difference. These colleges need college football to happen badly from a financial reason. If not, more programs will fold I predict. I'm not betting on that to occur though as of today unfortunately.

ok, I thought you said something in the lines of, "Bring it, game on." Sorry, I took at more from you but I see your point. This is all about the girls. My dd wouldn;t like a grunge match like that and in fact would stay home and let others play those games. One of the reason she was so bored with the first year of GDA. She only had two competitive games in the GDA all year.

Man your bias runs deep.....if that was really the case, why did she go back and guest with Blues DA all last Spring?

That season Surf’ u14’s TIED:
-West Coast
-Galaxy SD
-RSC
-Eagles
-California Thorns
-Pats
- Beach (and lost the next game to Beach in SD)
-Legends

seems like there were at least 9 competitive games I found rather quickly.

Let me correct my previous statement so you don;t think I'm bias. Sorry if it came across that way. For my dd ((not me)), she circled only two games. The first week of this league for me personally was discouraging and only from a ganas stand point. My dd didn;t start 28% of the time where before she started every game. Guess why she didn;t get to start Kicker? One trick pony got exposed?

You do understand that rebels played half a season right?
And being it’s Rebels first year into ECNL they need to adjust.
EDITED Cause you definitely have a club crush for the Rebels
EDITED
You’re a has been washed up soccer dad living on the pass!!! that’s why you’re a rec ref!
You have noooooo kids playing soccer in any of these leagues. And yet you think you know it all.. you where the first one talking shit that the Rebels wouldn’t get ECNL with stupid expertise bs opinion.. and low and behold Rebels got ECNL.
Seriously uncle Rico Rebels and sharks are in Ecnl! deal with it and they’re not leaving any time soon!!!
Even WORSE you use your nieces to justify the reason you’re on this forum.
At least @Ellejustus has his kids in the front lines with this and even tho he rants a lot his insight has been more consistent then yours FUCKO

Glad I saved the original.
Parents like you are the reason Rebels has a bad image and the fights I have witnessed at their tournaments is so sad. You would never see Surf nor even Albion parents acting like you. The club needs to reign people in.

Just because Rebels started ECNL last season is not a good reason for their poor performance. All the teams that played in ECNL were existing teams. Rebels just does not have the depth nor the draw for players. One reason is they only pull players from 180 degrees since they are located near the border. I’ll let you figure out the other reasons for yourself

Albion has always been a boys club, putting all their best coaches and energy into the boys. But a few years ago they made the strategic decision to retain more girls coaches and started to steal top players from the South Bay. They now have multiple top younger girls teams with a deep player pool. They could afford to lose a few top players and still do well but without a league it will be interesting to see what happens to the 2005 and youngers.

Northeast division has a North and South with a total of 15 teams so with these additions it will make 18.

Southwest ecnl has 12 teams with RealSoCal and Surf that makes 14.

Is this is a clear statement that ecnl is going to keep beach and legends out?

PDA has two teams already in and now their affiliate gets in before beach and legends are able to get in!

The hatred must be BIG if they are going to these lengths.

You’re a weenie and you went got my posted edited cause you got butt hurt.
Bottom line is Rebels has Ecnl and you hate it. And the more you think teams deserve it more on this forum . it has no weight cause you’re a nobody!
And honestly you’re the one who can’t get the Rebels name out your mouth.
As for me as a person. I’ve always been respectful to everyone on this board with a valid opinion.
My DD has done her part to represent the Rebels club with integrity and good sportsmanship.
You’re out of touch with the way the Rebels are running their program and how a good of a job the coaches and DOC’s are doing.
The main reason why...YOU HAVE NOOOO CHILDREN OF YOUR OWN IN ANY LEAGUE!!
So your opinion is invalid.
Oh by the way.. maybe the reason rebels parents act a certain way towards you because you’re a has been, snobby, thinks you know it all, fake privilege dickhead.

Are those good teams?
 
Has any club said how quickly they can start practicing once we get the all clear? Obviously clubs that have their own fields or parks will be ahead of the game as clubs that use schools might not get permits til much later, especially if colleges decide to go online.

I notice ECNL has a COVID countdown currently at 24 days. California will probably not have clearance by then while other states will be opened entirely. Maybe they just allow divisions with the all clear to resume without any thought of showcases until next year.

Sorry but I never asked Dominic to do anything to you post. I wish he left it up so that others can see what you really are. So I’ll ask Dominic to leave this one too. Does not bother me at all. And I never said Rebels parents did anything to me, I have witnessed the behavior, which has been verified by other posters on this site including @Surfref who also does not currently have kiddos playing club. Sorry but I am entitled to my opinion.
