[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just hit the ECNL website - https://www.boysecnl.com/[/quote]

So let's see if I have this straight.  There are five Northern Virginia clubs now in ECNL boys.  Most of these used to be in the CCL until they could not compete anymore or decided they wanted to switch to playing other teams further away in the ECNL.  Here's what happened over time:

1.  BRYC decided to leave all leagues at younger ages for some time, including CCL and was playing in NCSL, where it's teams were not performing well.  Older teams are in ECNL.

2.  McLean was in CCL, and left at younger ages.  Boys teams were not competitive in CCL and ended up playing in NCSL.  Older teams are in ECNL.

3.  Loudoun entered boys ECNL after being in DA.  They've been in CCL.  Not sure if they will remain in CCL.

4.  VDA youth teams are in NCSL and VPL.  older teams were in DA.  They are now in ECNL.

5.  Arlington is in CCL and recently older teams were in DA.  They are now in ECNL.

A number of area boys teams are ranked comparably or better than these teams u12-15, but outside ECNL, so instead, Arlington, VDA ad Loudoun have decided to play lesser local teams within ECNL and go to NC for games.  Forgive the cynicism but what is the point of all this?  Perhaps we can be a little skeptical about the league hopping these clubs (and other clubs are doing)?

All that said, best of luck.  [/quote]
