Every league wants what the other league wants - money from players so they can function as a business.

Playing with friends lol…

It will be interesting to see how far the GA / MLS Next partnership goes.

Hopefully NWSL will get onboard and GA can rename itself to NWSL Next.

Strategic alliance seems like desperation move from MLSN to have as much of the youth game BY as possible. MLSN could take a serious whack if they are the only ones BY but most of their players want college and are misaligned.

Desperation or calculated?

Boys ecnl is absolute butt. There are some good ecnl boys clubs but the majority are sub-par. An alliance with GA could make this happen.

ECNL/MLSn clubs could be forced to go GA.

GA/Ecnl clubs maybe forced to go MLSN.

That alone is over 20 clubs in play.

US Soccer gave GA the ability to Sanction itself and others back in Feb.

Seems like US Soccer wants GA to be like MLSN but on the girls side.

I'm sure ECNLs recent SY actions made US Soccer love them even more.

📍This is a strategic chess move.
Rook to B5 if you will.

1. Solidifying pre-professional pathway. Laying the ground work on professional pathway via NWSL (remember you don't need to go to college and enter the draft anymore. Remember over 10 players under 17 have signed pro contracts).

2. Isolation of ECNL on one side. Collegiate only pathway.
This will be a 2-3 year ripple. Around 2026 / 2027. World Cup Years.📍

It will also likely affect littles.

If certain leagues choose to stay BY they'll also need a youngers feeder funnel. If all the current youngers leagues switch to SY it will force a rival BY youngers league to form.

In the end...

Rec -> ecnl -> college will exist as one path.
Rec ->MLSN/GA -> pro/college will exist as the highest level league.

All the ECNL hats are trying to say that MLSN + GA working together doesn't mean anything. But they're only doing this because they don't understand MLS's power on the boys side.

MLS Next has about 150 clubs and MLS really only center on the 30 academies.

ECNL/RL is what, 4-5 times larger about with about 600-700 clubs if you separate out boys and girls and RL an NL.

You sure MLS wants the headache of running all of youth soccer to help it's 30 academies? US Soccer didn't want the headache. MLS would sooner stop funding their academies (more or less shit them down) then throw large amounts of money to take on ECNL.

He speaks on youth soccer? What does that mean? He looks like a personal trainer that funds European vacations by taking “select” teams to tournaments for massive sums of money. I hope you aren’t taking advice from this “coach”.

They partnered 5 years ago. GA has crumbled in that time.

That prior announcement had nothing to do with this. You clearly don't know so why keep posting like you do.
