[quote=Anonymous][quote=RantingSoccerDad]Merge MLS Next with the ECNL.

Merge the ECNL and GA.

Kick out any club that charges fees for its top teams at U-15 and above.

All clubs in this top-tier league must offer boys and girls program. Doing so in conjunction with another club is fine (say, a D.C. United-Spirit partnership).

Those clubs' "B" teams and any other club teams may join one national "elite" pyramid with assigned tiers in which travel is minimized.

Voila. No more diluted talent.

Let's take 2004 girls as an example. The top tier of the elite pyramid, based on YouthSoccerRankings, would be:

32. FCV 
59. McLean
73. Loudoun
86. VDA 
87. Pipeline (which could opt for a Baltimore/PA league along with Armour, Celtic, etc.)
89. Arlington
96. Maryland United
107. Bethesda
271. GFR 
283. VSA 
289. Vienna 
328. DMV FC

The next tier would be even more local. The NoVa league would have BRYC, Alexandria, ViVa, SYC, Arlington Red, PWSI, Metro United, Barca, LMVSC, Burke, NVSC and Loudoun Red.

This. Merging leagues is what we need, not so much merging clubs.[/quote]
