[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Really, how much different is this than high level MLS boys or ECNL girls????[/quote]

Seriously?  I have a son playing ECNL and one playing MLSNext.

It's frickin' night and day.  The older one left HS after sophomore year and switched over to MLSNext since he had zero plans to play of the school's teachers that, while winning, were god awful coaches.  He has committed to play in college while his friends that stayed the HS route have had no bites because they basically don't play Club in the Fall and they fall behind in skill and speed of play playing high school with teammates that are less skilled, some don't even play Club soccer.

My ECNL kid is a starter, plays entire game for his ECNL team and rides the pine on the JV HS team, along with the MLSNext kid while they watch kids that don't normally play soccer boot it down the field. When they do see time, it's an act in frustration since the players around them have no idea of 'space' or where to be or stepping to the ball or making a run.

When you have had UEFA trained coaches and played internationally your entire youth, it's quite a shock to go play for 'American football-type' coaches that have no idea what is happening on the field.[/quote]
