Quote: It's all about choices. Each family has the right to decide what they want to do. I think having choices is wonderful after all this is America. It's each family's resources, time and energy. No one is forcing them to do anytime but don't be mad if someone else decides to so something else for their child. Can people really be that petty that they would not want ECNL, Academy or whatever else that is available because they don't want to do it or think it cost too much. That's your decision which is totally ok but let other people make theirs without you trying to diminish it.
It seems throughout this topic, many keep referring to choices.
But if you live in the Upstate and you want your daughter to play in the Upstate at the highest level, there is really no choice.
You have to play CESA Premier, part of the ECNL.
The Challenge teams really do not compare to the caliber of the Premier teams.
And as far as being seen by college coaches, ECNL is really it.
