“Not rumors” |
3? |
Agree MANY more than 3 if DA folds unless massive consolidation. Boys “Da” : DCU ECNL: BRYC MCLEAN LOUDOUN VDA BETHESDA MARYLAND UNITED RICHMOND BALTIMORE ARMOUR ARLINGTON Girls ECNL: BRYC MCLEAN LOUDOUN VDA BETHESDA MARYLAND UNITED RICHMOND BALTIMORE ARMOUR ARLINGTON STJFCV - don’t think Metro survives. |
All I know is tryouts will be a shit show. Kids better get ready to keep that spot. |
| So FCV and Arlington get ECNL teams? |
What? An OPINION piece reporting on “Rumors” suddenly makes it real? |
Wouldn’t pipeline take over Baltimore Amour kids. (Not a pipeline booster just thinking through Maryland dynamics). |
The first sentence in the article “ The heavily-circulating rumor that the U.S. Soccer Federation is planning to terminate the entire U.S.“ |
DA would get rolled in and then everyone gets what they want. Coming out of a pandemic facing a economic recession to depression it would be wise for ECNL to fold in DA’s and reduce travel. A VA division of ECNL could look like: Loudoun VDA McLean BRYC FCV Arlington Metro Richmond The bottom two teams would be promotion relegation from ECNL Regional. |
The clubs might get rolled in but the pro/rel won’t happen. ECNL isn’t doing that in the existing setup with NPL teams, and there’s no impetus for them to change that. |
I assume you would have a different list for boys, for many reasons. This would not cut it and there are many better boys clubs in the area not on this list. Wouldn’t be bad simply to have separate leagues and memberships depending on relative strengths of boys and girls teams. |
Girls’ soccer parents (apparently) don’t realize that boys soccer even exists. |
|
IF its happens....
Metro most certainly will not get an ECNL slot. Arlington probably wont get a slot FCV will get a slot. Mclean would be the beneficiary. |
I think Arlington is laughing it’s a$$ off at the idea their boys would play ECNL. |
| Didn’t ARLINGTON just expand its boys DA? I’m highly doubting any of these rumors are true. Just trying to upset people. |
