What's the reason for traveling 1000 miles to play chumps? Socal teams do it, too. Just looks like a waste of a weekend.

Blues 06 lost 3 of the last 4 in league (Legends, Slammers and Koge), and lost 2 of 3 at Phoenix Showcase. All one goal losses though, so will be a tough out in playoffs if they make it.
ECNL games kick off again this week now with HS season now over (side note...the 6A state champions started six freshmen, all are Solar ECNL players...sheesh).
Not a lot of drama left in most ages, but the U17 age group is the most compelling. FCD and Solar battling it out for the title, and the Champions League race for the other two spots is tight (DKSC, Classics Elite, Albion, Sting Austin, and OK Energy are all in the hunt).
What will you be watching for down the stretch?

3 Energy: U15, U16, U17
1 Sting Black: U14

- DKSC wrapped up surely must be considered their best regular season ever.

Funny how you forget to mention ECNL showcase results. U17 SD Surf 1 Solar 0. Despite the only single goal, Surf dominated the game. u16 showcase Blues 3 Solar 2. Blues is 4th place in their SW Conference. So Solar beats up on Texas competition. Solar against any top team from So Cal, any age group…I bet on So Cal. So Cal teams play great competition every weekend, Solar does not. A 100+ goal differential in an ECNL Texas league is not a good thing for Solar.

All the So Cal teams/clubs combined will not win more national championships this summer than Solar.
Just like last year… right
Not at all bro…I’m not the one copying/ posting Solar kicking the bejesus out of crap ECNL Texas competition. I’m just posting the scores of when the “great“ Solar plays legit teams from Cal South and the results rarely favor Solar. It’s been that way for years, and it won’t change until Solar plays difficult teams on a weekly basis. Want to get better, play better competition.You sound butt hurt....
As a recruiter, I spend my travel budget in Cal South. And so do many others.
Spend some time and look up Solar vs Cal South teams in u14 to u17 the past five years Or longer. Solar victories versus them…you won’t find many. Just the facts.
You made me look. As you suggested, I started at U14 last year. It didn't take long to throw a wrench in your statement.
It appears Solar 07 were the 2021 California State Champs.
ECNL Quarterfinal: Solar 7-0 MVLA
ECNL Semifinal: Solar 4-1 Slammers
ECNL Final: Solar 3-1 Blues
Solar ‘06 last games against Cal South
2-3 vs Blues
2-3 vs Surf
1-2 vs Surf
Does that make Surf Texas state champs?
Cause here is what happened last year.
LAFC SLAMMERS WINS OVERALL CLUB CHAMPIONSHIP, TOP 25 CLUBS REVEALED
RICHMOND, VA (August 10, 2021) – The ECNL announced today LAFC Slammers as the ECNL Girls Overall Club Champion for the 2020-21 season. This honor is awarded to the club that has earned the highest point totals from regular-season Conference titles, advancement into the ECNL National Playoffs...

maybe the tide is turning? It appears Solar did very well u13 up in the showcases. And don’t forget the solar team that came out and won surf cup best of the best a few years back. I do think SoCal is likely deeper across the board than Texas but those top 2-3 teams can compete and win against anyone.
You and I apparently both know how those Surf vs Solar games actually played out, and the the scores were not accurate depictions of the game. Doesn't matter, though. Neither team took home the natty last year, and anything less than winning it this year makes for a disappointing season. I am guessing we may get a rematch this summer, which will be fun. Two very good '06 teams. Looking forward to it!
Nope, Surf won’t make. All the Surf ‘06 YNT players are playing up with the ‘05s because US Soccer said so. But the ‘05s will be tough to beat.
What do you mean "US Soccer said so"? They have a say over which club team those girls play for?
