[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Interesting, but beside the point. The question is whether Bethesda’s version of U12 Pre-ECNL (very closely linked to ECNL and other ECNL clubs) and the Virginia ECNL clubs’ version of U12 Pre-ECNL (VPSL) are treated the same for purposes of the above-referenced March 1 date. There clearly is a lot of movement between ECNL clubs each year, and it’s hard to believe that process doesn’t begin each year until 3/1. Does that date even apply to current U12 players?[/quote]

If you read the full text of Exhibit C: "Designated Tryout Dates" in the 2024-2025 ECNL Competition Rules document (https://docs.google.com/document/d/19i_HAUsN75dvDyLkg76QK9mQYbZ_MIbj/edit), it specifically defines alternate DTD dates for several states/regions/conferences/leagues.  There's no specific mention of MD clubs in the MA Conference.  Only VA and NC.  Also, there's no general reference to DMV or anything of that sort so I think it's not unreasonable to assume that the defacto date of May 1 applies to Bethesda.[/quote]

PP here.  I just read the following in Exhibit D: "Pre-ECNL Requirements":

"Recruiting: Players registered in the Pre-ECNL are not covered by Rule 2.13 of the ECNL regarding recruiting, tryouts, and registration".

So then the answer is those dates do *NOT* apply to U12 players.[/quote]
