    17 girls 3-0-0. Not bad for the B team. OC rocks.

      It's an expansion team. Relax. They're supposed to suck.

        U17 and U18 girls. Looks like 2 boys teams will also make it.

          You're right. Not bad. However, rumor has it that the two best ECNL players joined them and didn't have much time off the field. Smart on OC's part, but it's not the purple team doing the winning. It's ok. It's the OC way. Every age group did this because they can. You have to beat the best if you want to be the best. I just feel for the girls who had to sit on the bench to make room for guest players. Congrats on 3-0-0. How did the playoffs work for OC this weekend? Did other age groups make it?

            How is this different than any other team using guest players? Most if not all teams do it. However it's an issue when OC does it?

              Not all teams do it. Not even close. Most win or lose on their own merit. When you bring players in from the most "elite" level it sends the message that the teams can't get it done by themselves. There is no confidence in the rostered team that they can get the job done. And when they have to compete without them, they struggle. That's the issue.

                They bring down those players cause they can. It's a luxury most clubs don't have.Those girls sitting the bench now won't be when the scouts are in town for the showcase. The elite players helped secure a spot for that team in the showcase. It's not about confidence it's about exposure. The message is to all the players at other clubs. OC will do what it takes to get on the big stages. They have the resources to do it. Here's the real story. Most clubs first teams are fighting for a spot at the Disney Showcase. That is where OC sends its second teams. If your team isn't good enough to beat OC's second team with 2-3 1st team players, then maybe your first team isn't as good as you think...

                  Or... without 2-3 first team players maybe OC's second teams aren't good enough to make it to the Showcase. Besides, how much "exposure" are they really getting? Elite players played the Showcase last and will again this year. You know its not about exposure, its about wins. Look what happened in Indy this summer.

                    agree that the teams that can do it, will most likely do it. I don't have an issue with it. what I thought odd was that last year we played 5 (that's a qualifier!) games so when I saw someone threw out that oc went 3-0-0, I thought perhaps I was looking at the wrong team, but I think they just dropped one of the games, they played 4.

                      your post is ok, but a few facts fall short. First, OC sends its second teams here for the exposure, and they bring along those unfortunate ecnl girls that still haven't found a college home, so exposure is definately what its about. Additionally, OC sends their second team here because their first team is working elsewhere, not that they are too good for this qualifier, but they need their teams to be working elsewhere and no they don't have to qualify for the showcase so their is no need to even have to be there. facts first. too good? I dont' think anyone is thinking OC's first team is better than the top ten non-ecnl club's teams. You acquired encl, it wasn't given to you because your players have superior skills. LOL.

                        In this case the team could have possibly gotten the job done but AH left them without a coach or more than a few sporadic practices the 5 weeks before the event. He then came in to coach Disney and it was clear he did NOT want this second team to win. Nothing but insults about their ability and comparisons to his guest players. Director of Girls at OCYS clearly worried that a team below his ECNL may have talent. How is that for pathetic. Somehow he made it about him.

                          Oh, the BS is getting deeper than ever. "rumor has it that the two best ECNL players joined them"? And who exactly are the "two best ECNL players"?

                            Well the u15s who are ranked 3rd in the state must not have had any ECNL girls. Didn't work out so well for them. Lost two and managed a tie in their last game to finish last in their group. Roster lists girls who also are on ecnl roster, but didn't play first ecnl games.
                            Maybe they thought the team could stand on their own, but obviously couldn't.

                              Who cares. Why are any of them playing down on a second team? I thought they're the best of the best playing in the most elite league. Talk about BS.

                                Yes, all BS. That was my point. The fact that all the other "A" teams get bent out of shape about having to play against a couple of ECNL girls is laughable.
