So US Soccer is going to align to school year instead of birth year for the purposes of college recruiting...

As college sports is imploding and undergoing a massive re-shift under NIL, roster limits, athletes eventually becoming employees.

As college teams rely more on international players and taking older players from the portal.

And to move the system further away from alignment with the international system as the USA struggles with development compared to other nations.

Smh. What idiots...

Follow the money...

This is a money grab by ECNL around tournaments. ECNL is also trying to be very clear that they train players fir playing in college not playing professionally.

The leagues that focus on younger players just want an easier way to group teams. [/quote]

Don't disagree but then why does ECNL subbing rules differ from college?[/quote]
Parents would go crazy if youth clubs completely negated possession. Clubs need something they can teach players so they can win without the biggest and best players.

You can kind of see what unlimited subs would be like at tournaments. Notice superteams put together with the biggest fastest players. This is what youth soccer would be like during league.[/quote]
