Agreed, I just skip. It must take more time to decipher cognizant thought into gibberish than it does to actually come up with the thought.

Looks like the other thread is correct. Tophat will have 2 GAL teams. Wonder if the 3rd team will stay in SCCL or move to DPL? Questions that we will have to wait to be answered

Im thinking English is probably not this person’s first language which is fine. However, in order for people to clearly understand please consider using “google translate” or something.

I think they said they were mimicking some famous person. I dont think some one mimicking pidgin english is a troll, just maybe difficult to listen to/read.
Here, a troll are the one shot people saying that some club or coach sucks around tryout time. Then disappearing for a year.

Back to the discussion, regarding NTH, what I personally would like to see is...
1 - GA/TN/AL add ECRL as the 2nd tier options. Add more clubs (the largest 8 clubs in GA should be in it). Fixes the NPL problem, distribution of talent issues, etc. Shift SCCL to it or whatever, don't care, just make it happen.
2 - NTH join ECNL for their first team and their 2nd team in ECRL and them as a club simply join the standard pyramid for clubs in GA (1st ECNL, 2nd ECRL, 3rd SCCL, etc) in alignment with GSA, AFU, UFA, CF/SSA. I think the need to be/feel "better than everyone else" and have 2 "elite" travel teams per age group is detrimental to the clubs (now) and GA soccer as a whole (it is counter-competition...much like 2 GAL and a DPL team would be). Would they get most of the best talent and beat most of the competition at each level, probably/most likely, and that's fine. Other teams might get more of the cast-offs a bit more and help setup a really competitive league within GA. So players who want to be "elite" and don't make NTH 1st roster either choose to play on 2nd team or go and find a 1st team spot at another club. Same with 2nd team and down. IMO hoarding talent is detrimental to all club soccer in Georgia.
This could have been a hubris/arrogance-check moment for the club, but it appears its not (based on their desire to likely now have possibly 3 travel teams). We will see how it works out for them, but for the moment they won't affect the other clubs except in tournaments. I'm of the opinion that so long as the club wants to be an island, let them be their own island.

The other problem is if NTh attempts to have 3 travel teams that would mean their current 3rd team which is in SCCL will now have to do more travel. First of all those parents chose SCCL to not have to travel much also by the time you get to a third team the talent pool, even at nth, starts to dry up. Their third team, if forced to travel, will be dejavu of rpl all over again when nth was finishing bottom of rpl on a consistent basis the final 2 years of rpl

Just skip those posts, that’s what I do, lol Same here. Don't have time to try to sort through gibberish. She may have something pertinent - don't have the desire to try to figure it out. Speak so people can understand. Otherwise you're wasting your time (and no one else's cuz they're not paying attention to you :-)) shaka shaka, me thinks if you do not like my posts, please do not read, clear enough |

Beach's former GDA teams have been told that they are playing in ECRL. You are asking the right questions. ECNL girls is not like boys where you can win you way into the highlest level playoffs for an ECLR team (unless that is changing). Also like pointed out earlier for Beach and the others which league will get the higher team? The announcement didnt say it, unless I overlooked it. Westcoast - You mentioned Beach GDA was told they were playing ERCL. Do you know why they are now committed to GAL? |

Just heard Tophat will have 2 GAL teams as well as a DPL team. So with that being said I would imagine that SCCL will be the fourth team

So winners at NTH is the current DPL team who despite being second team will get to compete in same league as first team.
Also winner the SCCL players that move to DPL.
Losers, the current DA girls and the SCCL parents that didn’t want to travel.

The question will be.... Can TH fill 3 travel teams? 🤔 I think the question is Can The Atlanta Area fill 8 elite travel teams for girls at all age groups? If there are 150 girls (and their parents) in the age group who want elite travel then yes all those teams will fill up between the TH 3 teams and 5 ECNL teams in the area. |

I think it would be the smart thing but it is very hard to believe it will be done this year. |

I do have doubts about the eventual quality of the DPL team. I think many of the 3rd team SCCL players will opt for the 4th team (SCCL) or seek out other clubs. As opposed to spending 5-6 grand on travel for the season.

I think they will be fine. Tophat has plenty of depth to field quality teams. Regardless of travel, they will continue to produce the quality product they’ve produced in the past.

Some will, some won’t. Also this will basically be a SCCL quality team(3rd team at club) vs other clubs DPL (1st or 2nd) team at a club. I imagine a positive result would be mid bracket. |

Some of the DPL clubs are not that strong. Many Tophat DPL teams last year smacked down the Palm Beach Gardens and Weston last year (4+ goal differentials) A 3rd NTH team may be a good fit for DPL (provided they can keep enough quality players due to the increased travel). I agree with your assessment that some will stay and some will go. SCCL is designed to be a lower travel league, but some players (and parents) probably want a higher level and some don't. |

Fact is, a number of really good kids will be shutout of their respective clubs "new" ECNL teams come tryouts. AND We all know those decisions don't necessarily boil down to ability. I'd be surprised if TH has a problem fielding another travel team to compete at the top of the bracket.

Not sure what the "new" ECNL teams means either. Perhaps its an allusion to Tophat players moving to other clubs? UFA is the only club with a new ECNL team.

I read it as the NTH players will displace girls at other clubs on ECNL teams and will effectively make new teams happen at all of the ckubs. |
