League Play 06

Thought we could post scores, have discussions, discuss upcoming match ups or whatever else we can come up with here for this age group of players.
 
Why would you lump ECNL and DPL together? Don’t start WW III.
It’s just the age group. Has nothing to do with the leagues. Up until this year these kids played against each other. I also have friends whose daughters play ECNL and would like to here from them. If someone wants to argue the merits of either league it won’t be with me.

Then your title should include SCDSL, CSL, SDDA, Presidio, AYSO etc. or are you making the assumption that these are the only 2 leagues worth mentioning?
 
That’s a mistake. It was 2-0 Albion.

Yes, Albion is a very good team. They connected really well and created a some really good chances. I saw that 6-1 scoreline and figured it must be from a another game, because that was not the game we watched. It should be an interesting season. Best of luck to all the teams.
 
Nah, gave it some thought and didn’t want to alienate anyone.o_O
You had the right idea, I used to go with a "Games of the Week" thread back on the old boards. You could use it for league, fall or spring, or smaller tournaments that didn't get their own thread.

Be forewarned I will breaking down AYSO Rancho Cucamonga and Fontana leagues in this thread, time permitting.
 
Stop trolling. You have zero skin in the game so why stir it up?
I actually have a niece that will be playing 06 this season.

While you guys understand the pluses and minuses of the different leagues, there are a lot of morons that would have seen the title and think that they must be playing in one of those leagues for their child to be successful. And as we know there are many different paths, Mace is just one great example.

I also have a lot of friends that coach and it gets old hearing how their star player that they spent a great deal of time to help develop had parents that got nervous and moved them to a larger club at the ripe old age of 11.

Thank you Lastman.

Good luck to your neice! I stand corrected!

Parents have been pulling young kids from quality Coaches for Clubs with ties to “ELITE” leagues since the dawn of time. So forgive me if I don’t fully believe you’re put off by the lack of inclusion of other leagues in a Thread started in a particular age group, in a public forum.

I can believe that you can’t stand the fact the acronym “DPL” was used in the title so you spoke up. Especially because I don’t see the same comment posted in the “2006 ECNL Discussion” thread.

Apparently I am wrong......maybe :)

Yes I do hate DPL, but just the marketing part. I had no idea they extended it to U13 (pre DA) like ECNL did. Boy why not make both go to U8?
