    GPS, Scorpions and NEFC are the top U15 Teams.
    At the GPS tournament the GPS Elite team had players from other states. I knew some of them and talked to parents. State Cup last year too.

      At GPS Thanksgiving tournament the GPS Elite team most definitely had players from out of state. Last year's state cup games too.

        Please don't let facts get in the way of the MPS/GPS propaganda. They like to put their own spin on things.

            GPS NPL 15's team this year does have a few players from out of state, whats the big deal? The twins are from RI and one boy is from out of state but is attending prep school in mass. I am not so sure why you think that's a problem.

              The post was in response to post #29 in which the poster said GPS Elite teams do not pull from other states which is obviously not true. I didn't say it was a problem. Though if GPS uses the Bolts/Revs model, why don't they play against other academy level teams instead of clubs that pull just from Massachusetts. Obviously, if you are big enough to pull from other states that gives you an advantage. Can we agree on that? That being said, GPS still hasn't been able to separate itself from the rest of the clubs, so maybe the advantage is not that significant.

                  I will argue that everything going on in club soccer in Massachusetts, and New England, is a reaction to what GPS has been doing. GPS is the trend setter, and leading the way in the region. GPS has changed the landscape of club soccer in the northeast. They will be a DAP club, and ECNL before NEFC. The ones who think otherwise, have no idea of what is really going on.

                      team will still be good, but "got to win" tactics will be gone with DR back at the helm. Old coach knew how to get results and won/tied quite a few games where they were over matched. Kids will probably play a better brand of soccer though

                            GPS is definitely the trendsetting club in MA. In addition to their partnership with Bayern, arguably the worlds top performing club, they create a strategic competitive base of Elite team members. Other club "parents"/managers might be seething with envy because they cannot pull such talent within their own ranks (but would love to do so if they could, and try at all costs to apply club passes and such to turn events their way).

                            The probability of adding another or displacing a DAP club in MA seems miniscule. Therefore, GPS is relegated to club tournaments and cannot play academy level.

                              Many clubs pull talent from their own ranks and manage to compete pretty well with this "trendsetting" club.

                              I am not familiar with the process for becoming a DAP club. Is there a limit to number per state?

                                No way that another DAP club will be added to Mass. And I don't think that GPS and the Bolts are merging anytime soon. GPS has a very good business model without DAP. Not having a DAP program probably suits them. There of plenty of good players that want to play high school and high level club and GPS offers them this.
