PinLC it's actually a more truthful stance that you should have pivoted from "we didn't actively lobby against lowcountry girls" to "we dont believe they are good enough".

Here's a laughter from your website:
"Our Core Values
Sportsmanship, Community Relationships, Excellence, Positivity, Leadership, Communication, Respect, Creativity, Diversity, Partnerships"

Instead of jumping on another clubs thread and talking about what leagues your club has bc you active lobby to keep other lowcountry girls down, go start up a thread and prove any of those core values exist among your remaining 2 directors.

I’m not claiming they should or should not be in any league. I’m far to uninformed to make a claim to that. My question is simple, can you make a case that they belong? If so that would be the necessary proof to back up a claim that someone is holding down opportunities for your club.

Without that presentation, this portion of this thread in which you made that claim, feels like more of the same from you, blame everything on another club. It’s getting kind of old.

Are you saying clubs haven't applied? I'll let those applications speak for themselves.

Are you saying one club hasn't actively lobbied against Lowcountry girls? You may be uninformed(now) maybe not.

If it feels like the same old story, that's because it is the same old story. It is one club's legacey and we are tired of it.

We are unified now for the kids, creating COMMUNITY RELATIONSHIPS by developing PARTNERSHIPS between clubs in the community. We RESPECT each club and the kids in our partnership. Being inclusive and sharing ideas is our strength. It is an integral part of creating a DIVERSE and SPORTSMANLIKE ecosystem where kids can thrive. Any and all who demonstrate through intent and action that they are decent are welcome. The future is bright and we will continue to fight for what is right.

Seems based on what you are presenting your willing to hold a gauge on an assumption. The assumption being that failure to gain elite league access is due to another club. You make that claim here without even a shred of supporting evidence except a application that no one here has seen/ has access to and your belief that the only way you wouldn’t be in is due to another club.

Please let me know where I’m off.

*Applications*

I'm sure the girls jr Academy coaches that left did so for a good reason. But I'll give it a rest now, if that will keep you in retirement PinLC.

I'm excited about the new opportunities for kids in the Lowcountry and the ongoing process among the decent folks here toward a more inclusive and transparent environment for our kids.

I think next year will be a great success, not just in the performance of the top teams, but in the way all teams, and all clubs, are treated.

An event with that SE group will continue to not be a good use of parents' time or money.

Showcases past and future are a good place to see college coaches. You'll still find better showcases than what GAL has to offer. Also let's not confuse & combine what ECNL does for girls at CESA and SCUFC and DPL. DPL and now GAL are woefully far behind ECNL in all measures.

My last point would be to say that since we have been told by some folks who have been unable to grow the sport enough here in the low country over the past two decades to allow for the girls at more than one club to gain entry into a higher level league, I look forward to the GPS-JIYSC-CSC alliance taking that spot over as girls and coaches continue flock to other clubs that demonstrate they want to help grow the game.

@vic @eastoak961: this is what I’m responding to and the absurdity in it. Read my post above his/hers and show me any negativity implied...I’ll wait. That’s right there wasn’t any. Yep the DA folded and the result here in Charleston is our top teams will again be playing both NPL and DPL which provided excellent exposure and some great competition. If I’ve implied that being a bad thing, let me dispel that by saying this is a great opportunity for Charleston kids as opposed to any other alternative with the exception of hauling your daughter to CESA. My last post directly challenges the assumption that a college is only going to recruit at ECNL showcases of as one of you said, Jeff Cup....that’s not true at all.


I still don't get what you are talking about Chuck. You are majorly projecting your own insecurities onto others. Vic is not even from Charleston. In a discussion about DA folding and what the league landscape will look like, you somehow make it personal (why?) and go on some weird tirade about Charleston top teams and ENCL recruiting and Jeff Cup.

You're right on one thing though, I guess your postings weren't 'negative,'- just bipolar, completely out of context and obviously hostile (for no good reason).

No worries here bud! The point was obviously not communicated well enough for you and that’s ok! and if I’ve personally attacked Vic, then I apologize as that wasn’t the intent at all. My posts were directed at the same SSC parent (that I quoted) that continues to troll here, my bad I fed into it. Zero insecurities on my end bud, have yourself a great night! 🍺

Lol I’m breathing! No stretch here, don’t let the league fool you. As someone fully immersed in collegiate soccer here I can tell you that those two clubs had more kids get offered/commit than their ECNL counterpart in Columbia. Hell one of those GPS coaches even worked some magic to get one of his/her former players that had moved to cbsc. But let me go back to being angry and not breathing lol


No worries about me Chuck. I quite enjoy the fireworks you guys have going on in Chucktown. Some entertaining stuff. Your reply did get me a bit intrigued and since we get to play SCUFC twice a year plus all this time on my hands now due to this pandemic going on, I decided to scan the social media to see how accurate your college signing info really is at Gps NASA, USA, and In Columbia. Now some clubs are more active on social media than others so this is obviously not bulletproof by any means. Also, any kid pursuing their dream of playing college soccer should be congratulated and we all understand that not all those graduating players on ECNL or premier teams decide to play at the next level for many reasons even if they had offers. Some of the older ages are mixed groups due to birth year and graduation year being different.

GPS NASA seemed to have 5 players continuing to play which is excellent to see. Well done to those ladies and their coaches for getting them to this level.
USA MP social media doesn’t seem to be well updated and seems hard to find any info about any kids going anywhere but knowing how strong those Wando, AM and BE teams were I’m positive multiple girls are continuing to play. As you stated you are more into the college scene so I’m sure you know better than me.
Scufc has 7 21s currently posted, 8 20s from ECNL and numerous premier players as well.

So there’s no misunderstanding, this isn’t anti Coast recruiting post promoting ECNL. There’s only so much Netflix you can watch so I decided to follow up on your statement. You seem to know a lot more than me about what’s going on with the older groups and college scene in Charleston. Let’s just hope we get back to the fields soon!!
