Seriously? They will replace anyone and everyone if better girls come out. Dude it’s youth travel soccer. There is no loyalty...that will not change. The parents who remain will talk about how weak the girls were who got cut. If ecnl does not add clubs, it’s basically two teams being cut down to one teams. It most likely will help Mclean out the most. They were surrounded by DA clubs....not any more. |

I thought only FCV bred that kind of arrogance. Probably just lashing out. |

This is the right answer on multiple counts. |

| ECNL has a chance right now to control the entire pyramid of elite girls soccer and look pretty good doing it by opening up to all DA teams. It is unprecedented for a league to end abruptly during a worldwide pandemic, ECNL could really take the high road and enjoy loads of positive PR by providing a landing spot for many kids who could be displaced and who have no option for trying out since there is no soccer being played. It would decrease travel which is imperative for playing this fall, and probably make a lot of money at the same time. |

So Arlington girls all go to McLean. Where will FCV girls go? |

This make you sound like a scared parent with your back against the wall. Just go to whatever tryouts you want and shut up. I'm basically illiterate in Math and its not that hard to figure this out. There are approximately 270 DA girls is NOVA that are going to hit free agency (U14 - U18/19). (18 man roster x 5 teams per club is 90). (90 x 3 DA clubs = 270) There are approximately 360 ECNL roster spots in NOVA. (U14 - U18/19) (18 man roster x 5 teams per club is 90). (90 x4 ECNL clubs = 360) These are approximates.....so lets examine a charitable scenario. Let say, 25 percent of Metro kids break into existing ECNL rosters. That's 22 kids out of 90 Lets say 70 percent of FCV kids break into ECNL rosters: That's 63 kids out of 90 Lets day 50 percent of Arlington kids break into existing ECNL rosters: That's 55 kids out of 90 Grand total: 140 kids able to break into existing rosters out of 270. That's 51 percent total. Let break the 140 kids down evenly between the 5 age groups. There will be 28 DA kids per age group breaking into existing ECNL rosters. There are currently 4 ECNL teams in NOVA: That's 7 DA kids per team if spread out evenly (which it wont be. Some teams will be effected more than others). That means 33 percent of the existing ECNL roster will be replaced with DA kids. That means 67 percent of ECNL rosters stay as is. Loudoun and Mclean will see the most pressure to absorb. |

Give it up, they don’t need to cheapen the brand. They’ll build, as it demands |

| Is this debate necessary? News flash from the West Coast where the seasons are (were) just beginning: there will be no soccer as we knew it in 2020. West coast tryouts begin in December 2020, so Spring 2021 is the earliest for soccer league play. A lot will happen over the next 8 months and the landscape will be nothing like it is now. Very short sighted and useless debate going on here. |

News flash. You this is the east coast. Virginia south place ECNL season in Fall. Maryland up plays in the Spring |

| There will be no youth soccer clubs putting players/teams into "travel" leagues, elite or otherwise, in 2020. Spring 2021 is the new focus. |
