Hope you saw some nice sights when you were in Seattle.



Ha. Actually Seattle was probably my daughter's favorite ECNL event - the weather was fantastic and they had a great time. She was about ready to move out there until she was convinced that the weather she experienced was not typical. On the other hand, the Texas ECNL event (cold and snowy) made her decision about not wanting to play college soccer in the snow! Until that event, she was still considering some NE schools. We were lucky in that we only had one year of heavy travel. I do feel for the families/players doing it for 3 or 4 years. I would hope the players could chose which venue - Viking Cup or ECNL event worked the best or provided the most enjoyment for them. Like Delta Dog said, there should be enough players on the ECNL roster that all players do not have to attend all events.
