Actually, (fs), I'm not very familar with either. I'm just going by the facts. CESA is known for their quality staff, players and program. CUFC is known for their marketability and vested interest in HS soccer. BFA is known for fielding and developing elite talent to try and compete on a regional/nat'l level.

I would assume that CESA would adequately staff the Columbia and Charleston sites? (again, I'm only assuming this b/c their reputation precedes them.) In terms of products and service, IMO, CESA clearly outpaces the other BIG 2 in that respect.

No, Charleston is not lacking quality coaching it's lacking leadership and unity. We need someone or (group) of folks to help unify all of this talent to compete on all levels.

And...it seems to me, that CESA's success stems from more than just a merger. Obviously, they seem to be doing more than cufc and BFA based on their continued success and expansion plans. cufc merged and got 1 classic and 1 challenge state champ....Summerville and JI merged to form BFA and it resulted in a 3 or 4 state champs in it's first year, but even after the CESA merger they continue to be successful, even beyond the state level. Why do you think that is and the others arent?
