If you were worried your daughter would not even make the team, the soccer dream is over.

Smart one, back before the dilution of talent, it was very very uncommon for a player to play up with Tad. He did have one, Kennedy Wesley that is pretty darn good. I watched with my eyes and knew it would be hard for my goat to make Tads 03 goat team. Plus, as 04 should would have to start to justify that call up imo. Go back and look at the rosters of Bakers 02/03 2020 players then go look at our rosters of 03 2021 players. Plus Tad was recruiting all the top 03s. As long as assholes like you lie about me and my dd, I will never leave.
 
I am hearing ECNL contacting exDA conferences via DOCs that don't have a home trying to set up 10 month league (no high school).

This would be an alternative to GAL.

I am going to give you some advice. No college coach needs a headache like you, especially when your daughter isn’t a difference-maker. And no club coach will recommend a kid with a parent who is a headache like you. If your kid is marginal to get an offer, you will be the reason it didn’t happen. The best thing you can do for your daughter is stay off this site and stop attending her practices and games, because you will inevitably screw things up for her even worse then you already have. The same holds true for any of her extracurricular activities.

Does anyone want that? One of DA’s biggest problems was not listening to the vast majority of its member clubs and ultimate customers who wanted the option of not playing high school (and, before that, wanted single year age groups, less burdensome travel, etc). From the get-go DA was set up and run as though the people in charge wanted to write a Harvard Business School article on how they’d managed to make it fail within three years.

It makes no sense. Why would a league who promotes playing HS soccer create some spin off league for certain clubs saying no HS soccer....

100% agree. The two main flaws of DA were not allowing HS and the substitution rules. The GAL solves those issues and seems to be at least a short term alternative for clubs without a place to play. But there are clubs who still want the 10 month season. 10 month season = more $$.

My dd is on Strikers and that's not the buzz I'm hearing. Why would a great ((Beach 04)) team and their top, top players run over to Strikers? Or Slammers? The top top players are already being recruited or have already committed to a top school have zero reasons to jump ship. Unless Kicker knows something I dont?

Your spot on. My DD has decided that she wants to stick with her Coac and Club despite a 2nd tier league. she is willing to play in ECRL and has a massive chip on her shoulder to prove a point.

game on! Gonna be ugly!!!

Is that legal advice sir? My dd is and was a minor in the pool of sharks of men who ran all this stuff. It is my job as a Hawk Eye dad to make sure her well being is safe until she turns 18. I know who you are and I would be very careful what you say too. My dd is safe and doing great. Adults like you have been after her which is super sad and scary too all in one. What you just said it was you said to me in person. Almost by quote I think too. Get a life. My job is almost done everyone. Enjoy talking with EOTL and the likes of him. I won;t give it up dude. You need help more than anyone else here.

Who will be the ‘04 Blues ECNL. Coach next year?
 
@EOTL I found my song for my dd. I love her so much dude you have no idea. D.A.D.D. assholes punks like you. I pray to God almighty that she avoids men who treat woman and girls like sh*t!!!! I will take the rest of the day to chill and come back tomorrow. Let the haters hate all they want. You sound like the same dude who said that the coaches also size up dd mom to see how fat she is and then tells the goat you better not gain any more fu*king weight or the deal is off the table. You guys are whacked out of your minds. All these injuries too. You could careless about my dd or anyone dd. You probably dont have a dd.........

I have no clue Kicker. I liked the one they had this year. I was impressed and that team was tough and played with Ganas. I'm sure they will announce the coach soon. They have plenty to choose from to make a very tough 04 top team. I actually should have ranked LAFC and Blues in the top 10. Strikers will give everyone a good game but I will not speak foolishness that we will be champs.

Good luck to you and your daughter. I have spoken to a few families we know at Beach and Legends now that dust has cleared. The answers are all logical. The olders seem to be staying put. The youngers that like their teams and their coaches are staying. The youngers that did not like coach/club but thought it provided a path forward will jump ship. The families that drove a long way for the DA dream are now looking at ECNL clubs closer to home. The biggest issue I hear over and over again is that the DA clubs, more than the ECNL clubs, tried to pitch that DA was only way to reach top of pyramid. That carpet has now been pulled out and people see more options. As a customer, the more options the better.

Very good job bro. My big foolish heart believed in the GDA dream. Lastman said more options is better and we have so many options we can choose. Plus with all the extra time on your hands, parents can make good decisions. I don;t like that childish punishment on Legends and Beach though. Let them play with the big girls because they really do have the top top teams in Socal. Very good teams plus, most of those top top goats who were playing up will probably now play with u17s. Also, we can now play all philosophies and let them play the games just like basketball. So many ways to play offense and defense.

Just heard some rumblings that many of you might want to hear. Colleges (I am thinking private colleges) will be announcing soon that all classes will be on line until there is a vaccine for covid-19. Hope this isn't so, a lot can happen between now and August.

That all sounds logical. There are MANY SB families with Top Notch players that are all trying to navigate this change. Many see the value in the Coaching Staff Beach has put together and understand the 20/21 Season is about recovery and positioning for 21/22. As those families sit back and look at the landscape I am happy that many see the value in staying local and building a cohesive environment.

Are the girls on the former DA teams looking to play HS or pass on that opportunity?

Who are the company owners who started all this? The DMs as some call them? They took off?
