But both leagues are starting to finalize their platforms going forward.

What are your club affiliations now?

He wouldn’t tell me that. Because my club will announce Friday. We are currently a ECRL boys and GA girls club.

I would be stunned if they didn't go MLSN and stay GA. More $ on the boys side and MLSN is a better draw

Moving forward, U.S. Soccer’s Youth Council will serve as the primary leader in collecting feedback, and the Council will work closely with U.S. Soccer staff to make sure that we adequately support our members and ecosystem stakeholders through this transition. Check back to this page for updates on the above resources.

What I suspected - a whole lot of nothing from US soccer. We just have to wait on the leagues and then US soccer will have resources to help answer questions. Hopefully this will give the leagues the green light to announce their plans.

Also seems to shut the door on any other options than BY, SY 9/1 and SY 8/1. Also specifies that recruiting to national team will be BY.

Recruiting for national teams was always going to stay BY. That is the international standard set by FIFA.

Calm down people, that player registration link shared above is old. It came out in December

That website is just the original (December) announcement but with the last section updated. These are different bullets from the ones in the original press release:

Frequently Asked Questions – a consolidated list of answers to questions received from membership, parents / guardians, clubs, and leagues.
Player Registration Matrices – age groups mapped to birth year and seasonal year registration choices
Member Organization Decisions – tracking of registration decision by member organization

What did we say! Be ready with the new age change players will not be moved up or down right away. Thanks to the new ECNL league 2 coming soon clubs will need bigger rosters

The ECNL Regional League – Golden State will support deeper player pools and pathways for existing ECNL clubs, creating a 2nd team league for these clubs. This will create an improved competition and development environment for these players aligned with the ECNL competition schedule of their clubs, and will allow ECNL directors to manage player pools effectively from game to game each weekend, rewarding player development and performance in real time. “The creation of a 2nd team league for our ECNL member clubs helps to create a true player development hierarchy within our clubs for promotion to the highest level of national competition in the ECNL,” said Andy Mittler, Mustang Soccer ECNL Director.
