[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hearing good  things about this league, is it a better option than CCL on the boys side? [/quote]

ECNL-R is on par with MLSNext.

ECNL is better than both.

NCSL D1-3 are next

top EDP is a distant 7th

CCL can't hold EDP Premier 6's jock strap

What do u and morons like u gain from lying thru ur teeth?

EDP is the best league after the ECNL / GA conundrum.

Ncsl is a regional glorified rec league. God, people like u are a Cancer that needs to be eradicated [/quote]

These people know nothing ^

Yes, ECNL-RL is good, but not the best. It’s far better than CCL Prem now. But before it was rebranded as ECNL-RL, when it was called NPL, they were pretty even. But now Arlington and Loudoun’s second teams joined them. Of course ECNL is still better than ECNL-RL. EDP divisions 1 and 2 are solid. But let’s be honest that Division 3 and lower are not good. I would say that the youth soccer pyramid is:

MLS Next/ECNL
ECNL-RL/EDP D1 and D2
CCL 1 /EDP D3 and D4
NCSL 1 and 2/CCL 2/ 
NCSL 3 - 5[/quote]

I would have to agree that MLS Next is on par with ECNL and because of relegation and promotion I would put NCSL Div 1 at that level as well.

There is no way that two clubs in the area represent the best.  I know it is somewhat unclear what is being ranked here, but if it is overall team competitiveness then there are couple teams in ECNL-RL that would compete with MLS Next and ECNL teams.

Starting at U14 for Boys

MLS Next/ECNL/NCSL D1&D2
ECNL-RL/EDP D1&D2
CCL 1 /EDP D3
______________________________________________

CCL 2/Rec(well trained)/NCSL D3 & lower/EDP D4 & lower

My DS plays on ECNL-RL so I don't really have a dog in this fight.  I hope that for those parents reading this and have their son playing below the line realize their isn't college opportunities if they decide to quit travel.  Yes, there are always exceptions to the rule, but mostly college coaches will want to know what league the player was in before they see anything else.  If this is all for fun and staying fit, great and no need to worry about ranking.  Just don't buy what your club is telling you if you're below the line.

https://www.mlssoccer.com/mlsnext/members - No way Alexandria and Springfield have a lock on the best coaches/players, honestly I would hate to travel that much when there are at least 10 great clubs in the area.[/quote]
