[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have a 2014 kid in a fairly big academy in the DMV. I was talking with a fellow Dad who also has a 2010 kid who plays in the ECNL RL team. He tells me that his RL team has around 19 players, which makes sense because I hear they have many injuries at that age. However, what blew my mind is that he then went on to mention that the main ECNL team currently has 26 players and that they will take new players at any time of the season. 
[b]We are talking about 26 families that will be spending close to $30k per year (travel/lodging/food) and most of those players will either not play or play very little[/b]. Not to mention that it becomes nearly impossible for an RL player to get an opportunity to move up.
Is this par for the course in the ECNL world? I just cannot wrap my head around the complete disregard for players and families. I can't help but feel that things have gotten off the rails somewhere...
Any thoughts?[/quote]
