[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Mlsn isn’t changing 26/27. [b]They won’t feel the effects until tryouts 27/28 imo.[/b] 26/27 they’re still recruiting from by rosters. As the years progress the by kid will be lower in the totem pole on the rosters they recruit from. I can see them changing 1 or 2 years after. They cant remain the top boys league while recruiting that 5th and under best kid on their ulittle teams.

And no they won’t just bioband every q4[/quote]

The effects of what?

I’m a SY proponent. And also totally OK with MLSN and GA staying BY. Who cares?! But what are these magical “effects”?

ECNL girls is dominant. ECNL boys isn’t. On the boys side this is like ECNL not liking the way the teams were picked, and leaving the playground to go play with the little kids. What is MORE likely in that scenario is ECNL losing kids that want to keep playing on the playground. What is unlikely is the kids on the other team agreeing, and quiting their “unfairly stacked” team, and going to play with the little kids with ECNL.[/quote]

I would argue it’s not ECNL leaving the playground to play with little kids but actually getting upset they are losing and go get some bigger older kids.

Both leagues MLSN and ECNL will lose/swap players because most parents want their kid where they have an advantage.

I think this will effect MLSN more only in the sense that most kids who can play MLSN probably already are so ECNL will pick up the majority of 8/1-12/31 kids and MLSN will see more ECNL subs getting displaced which in the boys side for most teams isn’t much.

This age change definitely strengthens ECNL even more if MLSN stays BY.[/quote]
This is what I think MLSN2 is intended to address. MLS can maintain the Acadamies league as BY then use MLSN2 as SY to address ECNL.

If this was to happen it would be clear that to play MLS you'd need to play in MLSN.[/quote]
