It’s you again- isn’t it. Enough already about the ECNL not for boys act. Plenty of strong ECNL boys teams who can whoop MLS next teams. Just as many ECNL boys being recruited as well. Tirdd
of your continued droning on about MLs Next- Achilles and Alexandria anybody? In VA the MLS next teams are a far cry below the ECNL teams. I bet pipeline could also beat Bethesda. There is just as wide variation in MLS Next as ECNL. So if we are going to make a statement make it accurate…The only notch above ECNL for college recruiting is Academy. Next and ECNL both have solid player pools with both good and average players…

We did it this year for the first time. Total waste of money? Maybe not. 80% waste of money. Probably.

I wish USYS/MSYSA/VYSA and whatever other governing board you are a part of in this region would do a real honest parent survey.

For MD, you went on Spring trip and were a middle-bottom 1/3 player, you got an east region. It feels gross.

Keep on whipping that tired mule. The level of competition is 5x that of ECNL. How many MLS age group academies do ECNL teams square off against? Zero.

What do Achilles and Alexandria have to do with this discussion? This isn’t a chest pump about any local team. The fact remains almost most top teams in every state are MLS affiliated. ECNL had great run, but it’s just not as strong.

done it a few years in a row w kiddos. Our take is that they hate the dmv area and dmv should head to the south. I think east region doesn’t really care about the talent from this area. Because they aren’t in the plans to make the team. Seems very slanted towards northern states.

Also it dawned on me everyone including ourselves looked at it wrong.

Your kiddos are not trying to make a team thats a new team. They are telling to find a place on a pre established team. No different from tryouts locally. If the final team has a need that ur kid fits. They will get picked up. If ur kid outplays the kid in their position they might get s nod. Otherwise it is a waste of time.

This is such a silly comment. Plenty of ECNL boys are moving to MLS academies and getting scouted/signed at D1 schools...stop being so negative. The point of playing in these hella expensive and time consuming leagues is to provide looks for our children...ECNL still (obviously) provides that. If you are good enough you are good enough...regardless of where you play. If you are counting on the league to be the thing that gets your kid over the line they they must not be that talented nor work hard enough outside the pitch.

Until top players have to leave ECNL to get scouted by academies and top colleges it will continue to be relevant.

Like VDA, ECNL clubs with formal relationships with DCU will regularly get kids placed in the academy. I think that’s part of the terms of their agreement.

You can whip a mule all you want. It won't work when tired. Mules have an incredible sense of self preservation. All whipping will do is get you a kick when they have the opportunity. Mules have long memories and will get revenge.

Horses, on the other hand, will work until they drop. If the owner knows what is good for them, they will give it a rest when it's tired.

Who says you can't learn something on this sewer of a board? :)

This is correct, DCU has partnerships with a bunch of local ECNL clubs in the area.

They also have a P2P with MLS Next but how many players did they pick up from MLS next vs ECNL for the 2011.

None of the MLSNext clubs have a P2P relationship with DCU. But they do watch the local MLSNext games regularly. That’s the point of P2P, to scout non-MLSNext clubs.

That's not correct, I'm pretty sure Alexandria and SYC are P2P partners with DCU as well. SYC became one last year I believe.
