Rush Union will be in top flight not Premier.

I assume Rush Union will also have teams in SCCL-P.

Ok, odd. I guess CFC will keep their Elite teams in NL that qualified. They would be a good candidate for SCCL top tier as they have 2 teams per girls age groups, on par with AFC (although no one really wants to drive to Columbus...no offense).
So is AFC going to keep their 2nd teams in GA Soccer?

Seriously, are there any clubs left that will be playing Athena level soccer through Georgia soccer?

Looks like the SCCL-C is no longer an elite league with this addition. Too bad, it started off as a great league.

We're at 12 clubs in SCCL and counting:
AFU, Ambush, BUSA, Concorde, FC Alliance, GSA, NTH, Roswell, Rush, SSA, UFA, VHSC
We're at 15 clubs which will have teams in SCCL-P and counting:
9 from SCCL: AFU, Ambush, Concorde, GSA, NTH, Roswell, Rush, SSA, UFA (FC Alliance not in the graphic)
Plus: CASA, Columbus FC, GA Express, LSA, RYSA, Steamers
Those still in the GA Soccer leagues:
AFC, All-In, Athens, Atlanta FC, Brookhaven, Bryson Park, DDYSC, Effingham, FC Alliance Smyrna, Jackson Alliance, GA Storm, Impact, Inter, Legion, KSA, Macon, MAYSA, MOBA, NGA, NSA Belles, Oconee, Rapids, Richmond Hill, Savannah United (is this a part of SSA?), TYSA, YMCA Rome...and a whole bunch of smaller clubs

NTH will have an Athena D team

Post by atlfutboldad on May 14, 2020 13:08:34 GMT -5
Why? Why wouldn't they just be in SCCL-P3?
There likely won't be an Athena C or D with so many teams from the big clubs vacating GA Soccer.

Many clubs will have their U12 and below teams in Ga Soccer. Looks like that may become their main function.

The Ambush, Santos, and Rush Union teams will struggle in some SCCL champions age groups but they will likely finish near the top in others. These will be these clubs top teams playing against 2nd or even 3rd (and I guess 4th from NTH), so overall they will do fine. I may even say the additions strengthen the league overall instead of weakening it. |

On the boys side for u15 and up in SCCL top flight there are only two clubs in which it would be their 3rd team - UFA snd Concorde. The rest are second or first teams.

So, with the following teams in top flight SCCL, are they definitely splitting into 2 divisions?
AFU, Ambush, BUSA, Concorde, FC Alliance, GSA, NTH, Roswell, Rush, SSA, UFA, VHSC
From there do you play each team in your division twice a season and then each team in the other division once a season? That would be 16 games per season.
If they are splitting into divisions, any guesses which teams get matched up?
East: West:
AFU BUSA
Ambush Concorde
GSA FC Alliance
Roswell NTH
Rush SSA
UFA VHSC

Someone said there won't be home/away in SCCL this year. Currently at 11 games. They said trips to Alabama OR Tennessee, but not both.

I'm sure it will be club, and maybe even team, specific but if there are only 11 league games I hope there are extra tournament options. To me 11 games a season is a little light as I would prefer 14-16. Heck, my kid wants to play a game every Saturday and every Sunday.

Nah, All the big clubs if they didn't pull all their academy teams out of GA soccer this season they are going to do it next season. I know SSA pulled all their academy aged teams and put them in Club Soccer this year. I assume a lot of the other clubs in the original SCCL group will do so as well this year. I think SSA may even be putting a majority of their recreation players as club soccer players as well for 2020-2021 season. |

The majority of their teams play very rough (foul way too much), and their parents are crazy. I have never had an instance while my kid was in academy where there wasn't an incident started by one of their parents toward one of our parents. I was hoping being in SCCL would prevent us from ever having to go back down there to play them anymore except maybe in a tournament or something. |

There will be tournament options. My son played SCCLP this yr and his team played in 6 tournaments in Fall and would have had 4 in spring. He had games practically every sat and sun.

Did you mean to say US Club? They don't have academy ages. Academy and rec will remain part of GA Soccer |

The OTHER CCL (Carolina Champions League) is sanctioned by US Club and that league is primarily academy ages. |

We played CFC this last season and it was not a safe brand of soccer. I would have been happy to have not seen them again. Not a style I would ever want my player taught.

So on the boys side (15u and up) I thought it was: Concorde ECNL ECNL SCCL UFA ECNL NPL SCCL Is that not correct? |

That is the pathway at UFA but the NPL team is usually out of Forsyth and the SCCL out of Norcross. They are from different branches |

But I've been told will still play in GA Soccer. We were a little surprised by this down on the coast. There's sort of a love hate relationship with Florida Elite in North Florida--which is normal I guess. The only thing I'd say to Savannah United is that Palm Coast, Oakleaf, Port Orange and Tallahassee, Florida Clubs were also "partnerships" with Florida Elite before being completely bought out. |
