GA 2020-2021 Season

Come on Happy...stop being polite and boring! Never admit California supremacy and always trash talk when someone throws it in your face.
Nahh, it's better to leverage CA complacency.
 
something has to give, can't pack them in there so tight.
Everyone is 0-0-0 and tied for first place. GDA teams were #1 and no disputing that in Socal. All the players were trained under the great new philosophy of world class that swept our shores. I get it and I see what I see on the filed with my eyes. It will be interesting to see how things turn out and to see if Mr Happy is so happy after June. I think AZ tied so their both in last place unless it was just another scrimmage. Anyone have intel? I'm so confused these days....

I'm just happy we played games. Smack talk between leagues is a good thing - when games are being played. Right now smack talk is hollow.

I love competition and smack talk too :) Two girls top leagues is good now. I think Beach and Legends should go all in GA and make two great girls league. Keeps everyone in check. I think this year in U17 the best team might just be in the GA league.
 
best young teams....... Surf for 2006 and Blues or maybe Surf for 2007...... 2008 is two years removed from my DD so I don't know but I'd be surprised if it isn't Blues again........ Beachs young teams are strong though..... got a lot of Galaxy talent at 2006
Where did the LA Galaxy SB 07 G go from last year. They had some extremely talented players and played super soccer.

Majority of the 07 team went to Beach. Much like a good portion of the LAG DA 06 team went to Beach.

True........ majority 07 left to beach in 2019 with their coach IIRC....... most 06 left for beach after DA failed........ both talented groups
Nothing ever changes, does it? Dam them Blues always at the top and Surf trying to claim #1 too with Beach getting pissed off still because goats are leaving? Socal soccer in a nutshell!!!

Lol..... true...... LAFC Slammers is the other club always in the hunt too...... LAFC 06 will be a force again but I still think Surf top my DDs standings........ Blues, Surf, LAFC......... the three amigos of girls soccer dominance year on year not just in Cali but the entire US.....

Yes, I forgot to mention them as well. The three amigos. Time to knock one of them off this year? That's always the goal for a true competitor. The teams to beat and the teams that have no chance. Someone will not live up to expectations and one or two teams will surprise a few is my prediction this coming season. Oh boy, I can;t wait for our first league game in early November. My dd will arguably be going up against the best defenses and GKs n the country. No joke. I dont predict big blow outs with the GKs I see. Three YNT members and the other goalies are super good too and have something to say about who top GK is. Can you feel the adrenalin in your soul bro? My dd is starting a three week mini camp this Saturday. Hard core. After we play our first two league games, it's back home for online study and then back on the road for ECNL Phoenix Showcase. Like I PM you, this is big time and big time surprises coming for those who trail the blaze of bravery and risk taking. Not for that faint at heart. Beer on me bro and all the other dads I pissed off from time to time on here :)
 
Lastman,
Since I believe we both have girls playing in the ECNL Regional League I would like to know if you have any updates on the status of the schedule? My club has been be silent.
They have not been clear with us either. There has been mention of something hopefully coming soon.

When LAGSB decided to close shop the 07's followed their coach to Beach. The 06's wanted to stay together and joined Beach.
 
The Royals 04s are on fire. Their YNT pickup from Rising by way of SCDS has stoked their fire. And not to take anything away from the rest of that roster. They are the best team in the state and are going to wreak havoc in SOCAL. They won't blink when they play SCDS.
She is a very good player but was with them last year too and they did not have the remotely same results. They were middle of the pack. They have some stand out players but together were average on the pitch. The new coach is the true difference maker this year. I've heard it from quite a few over there. He is the new variable. Want more proof? Take a look at his 05 team. They are vastly improved as well. Commendable.

That's great to hear about the new coach. I wish them well and look forward to see how the 05s match up against the SCDS 05s.
 
Not surprising to see lots of GA players here, since not all ECNL teams are using InStat:

Instat Top 50 so far
I wouldn't put any faith in that so far.

GA has what 50-60 clubs? ECNL has around 70-80?

And doing a quick count I see 14 or so total clubs in that list. I may have missed one or so. But that is telling because the top 50 is not for just a single age group, but over a number of age groups.

That tells you that either not all clubs are using instat or more likely most clubs are not turning in info to be compiled into a top 50.

It is nice, but until you have a majority of clubs turning info over, the info is not that useful.
 
I agree with you Mad Hatter. My kid’s team played their first two league games last weekend against two AZ teams that have been playing games for months.

We won Saturday game 2-0 and lost a Sunday battle 4-1

The two AZ teams have lots of players on the ranking. We have none and I’m not sure we’ve ever ever ‘submitted’ players for consideration...

Game film for every GA team is automatically uploaded to inStat, where each player is evaluated and scored. After the games fill in, it will definitely shuffle. It's a pretty amazing tool, that I think will get it pretty accurate in the long run. If ECNL also adopts for all of their teams, it would be invaluable to college scouts, IMO.

BTW - only the Sunday team you faced have players on this list (3). The highest ranking one is in the USYNT 05 pool and is playing up a year.
