That’s a lot of fire power in ECNL. I think two on that list are wrong:

26. Sporting Blue Valley - TBD
49. Sporting St. Louis- Neither league


What’s the deal with Top Hat? Must be a pretty interesting back story. FCD is the 5th ECNL club in Dallas, so it can’t be over saturation of Atlanta.

Will there be ECNL-RL for the 03’s? Or will the U18/U19s be in GAL?

That sucks, I hope Beach gets in so the girls and their families get the same opportunities as the ecnl club girls. Tough situation for so many girls but in the end doesn't seem to be about the girls.

College coaches will find the top players. Hopefully ECNL will now mow their fields before showcases. :) :) :) Unless they are only interested in showcasing their direct style (ie kickball) teams to the disadvantage of possession style teams. :) :) :) Been there done that. :)

Lot of chatter that FC Virginia will move to ECNL. Will be surprised if Lonestar is excluded.

No idea about anyone else but would love to be a fly on the wall for the telephone calls between Top Hat & ECNL headquarters.

That would be fantastic, but I won't be holding my breath.

I disagree that Beach was not on bad terms with encl. They trashed ecnl and ecnl leadership was aware of it. I do agree that the kids are potentially being harmed by decisions of men in sweat suits. But, if the leader of your club caused these problems then go to another club. Southbay is too big with too much talent to have one club running the show. That is not sustainable.

There was never trashing of the leadership....that’s clearly commentary.

Put it this way, when your HS crush hits on you while you’re engaged, what do you do? Drop your fiancé for your HS crush because they’re into you now? If you decline their advance because your in a committed relationship, are you mistreating you’re HS crush?

You say SB is too big, then why didn’t ECNL recognize that 5 years ago? Why wait till local clubs proved there was local talent in the SB that didn’t need to drive to OC to put together dominate teams, to offer entry?

Now the table has turned and I believe ECNL HQ has been fair in their approach to Beach, Legends and Pat’s to prove themselves and keep it out of the hand of Conference DOC’s. I liken it to boxing or MMA when they say, “keep it out of the hands of the judges”.

So I don’t think there is bad blood between Beach and ECNL HQ and those steps are evidence to that point unless you can argue ECNL has beef with Legends, Pat’s and WC as well.
 
If you are all looking for ECNL to offer a scholarship to college, you will be very disappointed. It’s all changing now. Most colleges will be losing money and you will see scholarships evaporate.

Coach, you think the girls might be "hurting" a little over the last three years of men ((dads and dad coaches on boards)) running girls soccer? Ya, it sucks for all the girls but it's 100% not their fault their in pain and many of them are hurting themselves. You're a typical male coach who is clueless on the female and what she has gone through. You need a class quickly. You coach U12 and U16 girls? I hope you only coach your boys....

Vegas Guy Coach: "what girls are hurting.. 12yr old girls and boys are not hurting." You sure about that? That is someone who is out of touch
Vegas Guy Coach: "College players girls and boys are not hurting." Are you sure about? Try again coach.....
Vegas Guy Coach: "You know there are more girl scholarships per team than boys scholarships and those scholarships on the girls side tend to be worth more money than a boys scholarship. And your point is?

Coach, you think the girls might be hurting a little from all these changes the last three years and especially this year? Ya, it sucks for the girls, but it goes way deeper and you seem really clueless on how girls take things in. Typical male coach?

FC Dallas is a great addition and solidifies that conference.

No doubt. They are a great addition and make that conference much better. What many people outside of FC Dallas don't know is how ugly it got between FC Dallas and ECNL last year when they had their membership revoked. I can only go off what I was told, but it was by people who have kids playing for FC Dallas. Apparently, there were lawyers involved and the situation was not good. Due to those actions last year, most FC Dallas families thought the club would be kept out this year as payback for what went down. It looked like they would be kept out until a couple of days ago, when magically their name was back in the fold. I think it will become obvious very soon how FC Dallas negotiated their way back into the league.

No matter what was part of the negotiation and what they used as a negotiating chip, they did a good job to get back into the league. They basically saved their girls program by doing so.

Sounds like it all worked out. That club and place they have is too good not to be with the best. Now, if we can work on the two in Socal, all will be forgiven. I have no idea what you just wrote but I can only speculate and I won;t because I know nothing about Texas soccer. I will say I love all your soccer facilities. In fact, I think Cali will keep us off the grass this summer. Maybe we can all drive to Dallas and play a big tournament in June to close out this season? I would make the drive to bring unity to all :) I would also be open to going to Vegas for a big celebration and encourage them with spending money. Super down with that. I like what I'm seeing everyone :)
