Clubs hosting ECNL ID sessions before March 1?

[Anonymous]

How come some Clubs are hosting ECNL ID sessions before the designated start tryout date March 1?
Is it for non-ECNL players?

They explicitly say for non-ECNL players. If an ECNL player is thinking of making a move, are they at least permitted to reach out to the team's current coach to get on their radar? (I assume Coaches cannot reach out until after the 1st)

Let's be honest, nobody is enforcing that rule. Official tryouts begin after March 1st but for a lot of clubs, those are just a formality.

Correct. Coaches can’t reach out but players can reach out to coach and say u r interested but official convo & offer will have to wait until March 1.

Untrue. Clubs do get in trouble if another ECNL club files a complaint about it. Too many complaints will likely make the club at risk of losing the license.

Soccer is a small world. IF a player is good enough and they want onto another team, they're already talking and the wheels are in motion ALREADY.

Its doesn't say for non-ECNL players.
At least for the club's website I'm looking at.

It's a race for the same players. Every year it seems to start earlier. Sprinkle in some coaching and league announcements and this is the best time of the year.

What happens if you are an ECNL player for another club and just show up to a ECNL tryout anyway? Who would tell on you?

But the quote of your club would file a formal complaint with ECNL!

Which clubs are hosting tryouts? We play for MLS Next but want to go for some extra training and smoke those ECNL kids.
