    Next season

    In light of the news today, what do you predict the MA soccer landscape will look like next season? How many ECNL teams? How many DA teams? What leagues are Stars, Scorpions, and BBA involved in?

    There will still be too many teams in each league. Premier soccer teams are like a hydra ..... Lose one team and two (or more) are waiting to replace them. There are no shortage of clubs or parents looking to boast about the next big thing they are part of ..... No matter the cost.

      It's just moving the same sand around the same sandbox. Families are getting fed up with it all - cost, time, constant turmoil They could help institute change by voting with their wallets. However, there's always enough buying into the sales pitches of which club or league is "the best." PT Barnum lives on.

        Personally I’d like to see FC Stars, NEFC, Scorpions & SSS all with their top teams u13 and up in ECNL.

        Would give families more choices and would have the top girls playing against each other on a regular basis, as well as playing against the other top teams in Region 1.

          Makes too much sense.

            Huge opportunity for Scorpions to re establish themselves. Big name clubs essentially branding GDA as garbage should dampen the enthusiasm to flock to BBA/nefc. Poor competition in the Northeast should drive traffic back to ecnl clubs. One caveat ...Fred needs to get his sh*t together wether that's stepping back or not he needs to bring in competent coaches and business people to run the organization otherwise he should take the best offer and walk away gracefully.

              begs the question why you dont just go the whole hog and have a regional league. forget this national nonsense. 80+ pct go NE anyway.

                Because big showcase tournaments are a moneymaker for clubs. If every soccer parent knew you could just play locally, well there goes money.

                  There's rumors that CA clubs are going to do that, but nothing legit to prove it as yet. It makes far too much sense for the players and even college coaches. But money makes the world go around...

                    Makes a great deal of soccer sense, and I could see it going that way eventually, but for now we're talking about business competitors more than partners.
