[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The plan is to change MLSNext to August in 2 years.

The kids on the MLSNext’s clubs’ u12 teams have been clubs’ “A” team players for the past 2-4 years.  They have been with the clubs” “A” team coaches for the past 2-4 years.  You can’t snap your fingers and make the kids born in August - December automatically better than the kids who have been on the “A” team 
for 2-4 years.

Now, this year’s u10 kids?  Yep.  By switching the younger age groups to the August date the Q4 kids will get sorted out.  They will be the best “A” team kids in a couple of years and MLSNext will change to the August date.

Yes - they should say that is what they are doing.  But, if you did so you would be confirming the obvious that birthdate matters a huge amount.

Can you post a link to that MLS Next internal document showing the change in 2 years?[/quote]

MLSN changing to SY in 27/28 was mentioned a few times in earlier threads going back to late summer. I have a hard time believing MLSN has thought that far ahead.[/quote]

You having a hard time is the proof that a change is happening in 2 years?[/quote]

You have a hard time with reading comprehension? How does “I have a hard time believing MLSN has thought that far ahead” mean that I think MLSN is changing in two years?

Let me phrase it differently for you. Changing in two years would imply a plan. [b]I don’t think MLSN has a plan. [/b][/quote]

I thought it was silly to change.  However, when 97% of the organizations decided to change, I assumed logistically, they would change.
 
There is going to be so much sorting on the field and “when were you born?” going on.  If they would have just went full school year like everybody else, you can build in BY breaks like international breaks where you compile BY teams for play and potential U.S. national team preparing, etc.

It will just be interesting to see how this looks on the ground level. I don’t think they thought this through logistically.[/quote]

Yes it delegitimizes mlsn2 even more and makes a nightmare for everyone at clubs with both mlsn1 and 2.  Aug+ birthdays who don’t make mlsn1 are screwed bc they are forced to move down an age group and on a forever track to mlsn2.  Those players will go ECNL and the bench Jan-July ECNL players will try for MLSN1.  MLSN1 rosters will be exclusively Jan-jul next year.  [/quote]

The number of helicopter patents here is crazy.  Your kid is either good enough to keep up or he sits the bench. It’s incumbent on your kid to step up, not whither on the vibe like the posters here.  [/quote]
