New Girls DA Clubs Announced

If you read any of the studies or articles I've already posted, you would realize I have already provided the information you requested. Instead let me leave you with a GDA stat of the day: more than 20 clubs (so far) thought GDA was so great that they quit in the first 1 1/2 years.

I'm not sure that talking to a cracked mirror is any different than talking to a regular one. It's weird either way, and I suggest you speak with a mental health expert if the mirror is talking back, especially one with my jaded and skewed image. I mean, a mirror always looks like it's talking back, but don't let that fool you even for a second.

If you have a study that says playing 90 straight minutes does not substantially increase the risk of an ACL tear, or a study that contradicts anything I've said here, there is literally nothing stopping you from pointing it out. Apparently you'll never know whether my mind can be changed if someone presents a contrary study because it seems you can't do it no matter how many times I ask you or mock you for your inability to do so. Dude, step up to the plate. Find a relevant passage in a study that contradicts what I'm saying, post it here, and let's see what happens. Just make sure it's from someone with more expertise than a Mt. Olive grad student ok?

Good one trying to paint me as a threat to ruin your daughter's love of soccer. If you think I have a skewed attitude, just wait until you talk to the other parents about having to fly to Las Vegas to beat a glorified rec team. And then to Placer and probably Salt Lake City in an effort to prop up the failed NW division.

Stepping on the pitch increases chances of tearing an ACL :) :) :) :)
 
Are there no ECNL players that play all 90 minutes?

With the frequent rain outs this winter a lot of games have had to be re-scheduled and there are many teams/players that have to play back to back games on the weekends. Doesn't that break DA's own edict regarding 24 hr rest period between games? If they have to schedule Sat/Sun games they should lax their substitution rule for teams affected. Just sayin'

Age groups play at the same time each day therefore if you were an 05 making up two games in a weekend you will play at 10 AM Saturday at 10 AM on Sunday therefore there is no 24 hour rule violation

Lax for what reason? So your kid might get some playing time?

Not always true- my dd's team has multiple double-headers with less than 24 hours rest. A 3pm game followed by a 9 am game has happened more than once.

Does DA strictly enforce the substitution rules other than the no-re-entry rule?
 
In hindsight we did have a 5pm Sat game followed by a 10am game the following day so I do stand corrected.
We were right there with you but I'll see your 5pm to 10am games and raise you a 7pm to 8am turnaround. And add a loss of an hour for daylight savings time in between and its 2 games in about 12 hours from OC to San Diego...I guess the 24 hours is more of a guideline than a rule ;)

Certainly seems that way :)

It is a rule, that of course can be broken when the makers of the rule deem it necessary. Do as I say, not as I do.

Per the 2018-19 DA Rules & Regulations , Section IX.C.1: "Double fixture weekends may be played; however, a minimum of eighteen hours must be provided between both kick-off times to allow for necessary travel and recovery."

Based on the statements from several posters, this doesn't seem to be followed in all cases, but the DA rule between kickoffs is 18 hours, not 24.
