[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I thought nova teams were mid Atlantic, not Virginia? How is it gonna work with just 8 teams in a conference, will teams play each other twice? [/quote]

Yes, likely a 7 game fall and 7 game spring season with tournaments mixed in.  [/quote]

If you look at the list, two clubs from VA are in the Carolinas list along with a Georgia club!

So is Virginia a 6 or 8 team division? Because of high school there really isn't a Spring season after U15.

It seems slightly better or equivalent to ECNL-R.  It 's probably a fine option , but honestly it's all the same kids, maybe a little shuffled. It's really only a major shift for the League who's getting more money.

FC Richmond and VA Rush are also listed in the Virginia division.  Seem to recall they listed Carolinas division first (when the 1st iteration of the leagues came out) without those 2, then had them added to Carolinas, then when the VA division was listed those 2 were included.  So maybe they just forgot to remove them from Carolinas.

With those 2 in VA division, would be 8 teams and Carolinas without them is 10, so my best guess is they're Virginia division.
