Tell me I'm on the second team without telling me I'm on the second team.

I don't understand your thought process. Theyre making big pools then will determine who is in the 1st ans 2nd team based on ability. Do you think you can somehow interject yourself into the decision process? Instead of playing the socal game take your kid to the park and practice skills and shooting.

Ive seen parents throw money at coaches. Sometimes it works in the short run. But in the long run it usually fails.

This is why ECNL is adding in their new RL system for all ECNL clubs, makes it easier for ECNL clubs to fill up that 30 man roster and promise everyone ECNL.

In the meantime, there's just a lot of huffing and puffing about people who think they know every detail of how the transition will go.

My favorite take is that their will be no changes, nobody will want to switch teams and teams won't want better players, especially the older kids where my kid is and where I am really worried.

It is literally just like the last time we did this switch. Everyone acted like nothing would change and then suddenly, after tryout season, things had completely flipped with huge changes in teams. It just human nature.

This time players will not be forced to move teams as they can play up if they choose. The amount of player movement will definitely depend on each region and the number of ECNL, high level GA or RL teams in an area.

Also most ECNL teams do not have a high number of Aug-Dec players (typically 1-3) but most RL/GA teams are they same and not filled with a high number of Q3/4 either.

I do not think it will as much as a change next year as will be over the next 2-5 years of seeing more Aug-Dec players on teams.

Exactly! We will not see huge changes next year.

Technically its 28 and 2x Discovery players. Which equals 30.

Can only speak for Southern California but there will definitely be at least 50% turn over on most ECNL/GA.

The big ECNL clubs have very solid RL teams with quality Q3/4 players. All these players will be able to make the ECNL team below or at the very least will make other local ECNL clubs which will start forcing players out. Lots of talent on the GA rosters as well.

Also no current uncommitted U17 players will chose to go U19 next year they will want to stay an additional year in U17 as it’s the most recruited age group.

I think some teams will be 100% turnover. Already a lot of anger at my kids clubs.

If a club turns over 100% of players, that club doesn't care about its players.

Theres only a couple Socal clubs with really good B teams. Most of the B teams aren't that good and you can confirm with the ranking app. Theres not going to be massive turnover.

lol. Keep telling yourself that. There is literal history for you to look at and see the truth. But nah, nothing will change!

But again, this exactly what happened last time.

I’m not in socal but recently watched a national championship winning ECNL boys side barely eke out a tie vs their RL side a year older. If yall don’t see the writing on the wall I’m not sure what to tell you.

Well, it's not a fair comparison unless the older team was nothing but Aug-Dec players.

Not that there won't be a lot of changes but there are a couple of key differences this time... Fewer months affected and it's a smaller jump for them to play up vs. having Jan-Jul players under the BY switch.

Yes 5 months vs 6. I’m sure that factor will mean what happened last time will not happen again. You figured it out.
