[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can someone see if I have all the history right?This back and forth thing makes no sense to me as a parent of a u12 girl.

I was told Arlington was a founding member of Girls Academy when DA imploded because McLean was blocking them from joining ECNL, and McLean was a founding member of ECNL.

Then somehow Arlington was given an ECNL slot, pissing off McLean, but then the McLean Boys ECNL sucked, and at the same time BRYC girls sucked, and they were forced into a marriage of (in)convenience which left no one happy - this was called FVU. McLean said “F it” when MLSNext did a deal with GA and jumped to GA to regain control.

Separately, BRYC is going to maintain the ECNL badge through some version of FVU, and is probably just happy to be there.

And then Loudoun, who was in the ECNL as NVA, just bailed out of ECNL and switched their successful girls program to GA so that their boys could play MLSNext? And that no one is replacing NVA?

Loudon/NVA are screwing their girls so the boys can have more opportunities in MLS. that is all you need to know.

But at the end of the day, ECNL is still 3x to 4x more successful as a league that colleges recruit from.

So does McLean and Loudoun/NVA think that in the short term their girls might be screwed, but it is worth it for their boys, and eventually GA will be closer to on par with ECNL?

And is Arlington kind of like that kid who is always wearing last year’s fashion picks? Will they end up trying to get into GA because that’s what the cool kids are doing?

Is there something more that I missed?
