Yes the territorial veto’s were taken away last year as historically GSA has vetoed all ECNL/RL expansion in the Metro. Has Concorde also vetoed expansion historically? Not that I’ve ever heard. Gregg and Ken’s egos are so high they don’t care who’s added. |

I am not caring a ton about the ECNL moves aside from Nationals. That news is old now, but I am interested that Augusta Arsenal got DPL. Good for them! They have been a decent club since my kid was a U13 2005. Solid team back then that got promoted up the ranks slowly. They are in a tough spot in the middle of the state with no easy trips to anyone else for scrimmages. On a state line so players from two states usually on their rosters, often a hassle to deal with state associations from two states, travel across state lines. |

#1 these were GA Nationals #2 it doesn't hurt GAL at all. they have added ALOT of other clubs. Quantity over quality will keep GAL relevant to its financial backers for a long time. Top Hat will be playing in cow fields vs the school of the deaf and blind soon enough. Thanks Troy for being an absolute doooosh and turning a quality club into a joke. Oh...and Ted.. how was champions cup for you? |

It would be interesting if GA told all the clubs switching over to ECNL to not attend finals in the summer and replaced them with GA teams. |

So the solution is for the cash cows to stop eating. Yeah that’ll never happen. No different from MLS next(non academy) and ECNL on the boys side. Pay to play is a detriment to all. |

It's ironic that the op-ed is authored by the head of a for hire recruiting service whose website homepage says in large lettering "Get A Scholarship" and "Get Noticed". |

You can’t un-ring the bell. Prove me wrong: About 25% of players are “select” quality. About 60% are good players and their parents money is being exchanged for some good “team sports” life lessons. The remaining 15% are purely being babysat. But the parents are willing to spend money and clubs are happy to take it. I call them willing suckers. |

The best thing that could happen is cut top level teams in half for all leagues both boys and girls across the country. You have roughly 10 girls and 15 boys top league(ECNL/GA/MLS Next/Academy) teams alone in the Atlanta area alone. Each team carries 18 players. Will all 360 see action at the next level? Girls more so than boys just because there are more college options but as you said someone needs to fill the remaining 75% of the spots. |

New rumor is going around that TH girls will switch from GA to ECNL and the announcement will be made after champions cup at IMG next week. No idea if any of it is true. Seems unlikely to me. Still waiting on this rumor.....TG's beef with ECNL when he was on the board was that they were adding too many clubs and diluting competition....now look at GA.... |

Teams can also elect to enter into more DPL Events (where space is available) and clubs can elect to play regional bracket play with fellow DPL OPEN clubs, should they wish to supplement their current league game schedule.

But, who cares if a league adds hundreds of new teams. The only way it would effect TH is if GA added more local teams. Maybe if GA added more Southeast conference teams it would mean more travel? |

And I'd bet it's longer than 2 years out if they are ever given membership at all. |

Rumors are rumors… You would think that playing in GA, TH wouldn’t have any college commits/signings at all. However, their college commits are on par with all the ECNL Atlanta clubs if not better.
I am not attempting to stir the pot. Players and parents need to know they will be seen, discovered, and recruited at TH…
