MLS Academy - Best competition, most resources. 
ECNL - teams with full pathway including RL and USL affiliation are next and usually best option in non-MLS cities. College exposure is probably best and pro academy exposure almost as good as MLS Next. Some clubs allow players to participate in high school.
MLS Next - Usually equal talent level as ECNL teams. Get to play pro academy teams yearly, so better pro exposure. No high school participation. 
Smaller ECNL clubs and MLS Next 2 - Depends of location. Usually 2nd option in locales with dominant ECNL/MLS Next clubs. Can be a money grab as these orgs are rapidly expanding.

If this is a "ranking" then this is not accurate.  MLS Next is "better" because it provides better opportunities for your child.  If your kid can make an MLS Next top team, then you are silly to say no for ECNL.  This isn't even debatable to be honest.  Better competition, better events, better eyes on you.  ECNL cannot compare.[/quote]
