[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The next few years will determine which is the stronger league on the boys side.  MLS Next let in some questionable clubs and some pretty strong clubs are in ECNL so we'll see. I'd say it's a toss up right now.  Need to play the game.

Really though, you have to focus on what your kid needs and their goals.  If your kid is good enough to play pro you want to place them in an environment that will help them get there.  Though you have lots of questions to answer like do you want your kid to go to college first before pro or just go pro.  Will your kid gel with the team?  Is it the right environment for your kid to learn and grow?  If your kid is that outstanding they would probably have been picked up early by one of the MLS Club teams by U13.  If your kid is looking to be a student athlete in college, then you'll want to start contacting the coaches where your kid wants to play and start building a relationship there.  Kids with high GPA's and pretty good soccer skills can find spots on D1, D2 and D3 teams.  Or if your kid is that good and a school will overlook the grades, then go that route.  It's the best when your kid knows what they want and they just go for it and ask you for help when needed.[/quote]

No doubt a new league will pop up in the next few years [/quote]
