Unfortunately even though not all coaches have an agenda... so many do, ussoccer must eliminate “coach recommendations” and hold scouts accountable on the boys and girls side.
If we want to maintain our dominance on the womens side or be relevant on the men’s side ussoccer needs to at least try... the da enviroment is better than nothing but selecting players without having games that are being scouted is an embarrassment. May as well just call it ecnl!

They have the same cut throat club vs. club as opposed to working together. The one big difference I see is they charge more and pay coaches more and it seems like the coaching is at a higher level at some clubs.

Originally posted by Unregistered View PostMy friend my friend , you obviously know nothing about California soccer. Florida backstabbing and cutthroat is child’s play compared to clubs in Cali. The difference is they are constantly getting selects for national teams and camps. It’s all mostly about connections , most defenders and defensive mids play same way, how much better does defender a from Cali need to be compared to defender b from Florida. what they are really trying to find is the quick technical kid to create plays and score goals. That’s where scouts need to stop with the buddy buddy system and actually scout.
That said, CA dominates in the player pool for top college soccer programs so they are doing many things right out there.

Originally posted by Unregistered View PostIt's quite simple - the National Training Center is in Carson City, CA and the greater proximity your club is to Carson City the greater exposure you get, then you get noticed and get better training and then all the sudden you're better than girls from across the country.
x 10.
Plus factor in that coaches have better relationships with staff due to proximity.

I’ve been to ecnl showcases the last couple of years. Before GDA , ecnl was the most elite level, right? I’ve seen the best of the best girls from Texas , jersey , California etc. there is nothing out there that is far superior than our better Florida girls. Of course you have a couple of exceptions , but all in all most of the girls selected to these national team camps have the same level as the majority of the better girls from all states. Hooks and politics have always ruled.
My older girl is aging out , but hopefully the new crew demands that scouts at least try and not relay on coaches recommending players. They get expense paid travel to showcases and most spend their time at the hotel bar trying to hit on the soccer moms. Then go watch a portion of a game or two while nursing their hangover. There is zero accountability when the girl doesn’t work out.
For the new GDA parents who are skeptical , you will be surprised! Hopefully with GDA it’s a little different but prob not
