The future of the program and a key look at what it will be a few years down the road. Bottom of the table, basically. Those poor boys would lose 95% of their games in MLS Next.

In the 2 youngest age groups I would agree. The Academy teams 2010 and older will be fine, particularly if they bioband a few of the Q3/4 players on existing Academy and ECNL teams.

Am hoping going from 4 teams (2 RL, 2 NL) to 3 will help with the loss of players to Fox SA, as most RL teams are as non-competitive as the ECNL teams 09 and younger.

For CISC, I see this more of a strategic move against Fox (who they were losing players to) vs a repudiation of ECNL. Fox got MLSN2 on boys side and is DPL on girls side - and no secret they want to be MLSN/GA eventually. If CISC gets MLSN plus 2 MLSN2 teams, they will pull top players back from Fox who want to play MLS Next, and at MLSN2 level, it will be all about what clubs facilities are more convenient for most families.

On girls side, CISC in GA will preclude Fox from ever getting it. North Charlotte area isn't anywhere as populated as DMV and two GA teams there would just make them both watered down and terrible.

Don’t forget mutiny in south Clt who only up until next year carried 1 MLS next team at each age. They’ve been able to pick up a lot of the top players from both csa and CISC since they were the only show in town. This move for CISC to MLS next is undoubtedly strategic and allows for them to stop losing players.

of course. Since it is assumed that only good teams will leave GA for ECNL, and the best teams are at the Champions Cup, they will all wait. Also GA is too busy to announce any major realignment. My predictions are still

GA to ECNL on Wednesday

2 NJ teams added Thursday

GA realignment on Friday

ECNL needs money. If they are losing a ton of boys teams, and RL teams, they will be toast. It doesnt matter if they are the bottom teams or not, they still pay ECNL the same amount of money

No its not, it will be exactly where has been and will remain - 2nd tier.

Very good points, hadn't really thought about it that way. Will be interesting to see if the former CISC ECNL players (as well as some Academy players) that went to Fox try and come back now that they have MLS Next. The ones we know swore off Independence "forever" after not getting pulled up to Academy.

How are the clubs looking? Who’s strong and who’s weak?

This is super local, but any thoughts on FC Atletico? I'm always amazed they don't have a pipe into either Fox or CISC or to CSA - which would give CSA entry in the the North LKN towns.

Fox has drained off a lot of the boys who normally would have been stuck fighting for Academy slots, killing the CISC NL teams. Across NC I see MLSN in general as weakening all the ENCL clubs boys teams.

It's likely just pot stirring.
