[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There will be no BY and SY tournaments. Everyone is going SY. Good night. [/quote]

MLSN1 will go to SY except MLS Academy. Argue all you want until you hear the official news.[/quote]

Huh? As of right now, with no “official news”, MLSN is business as usual…BY. Argue all YOU want. 🤣[/quote]
The ECNL hats are wish casting again.[/quote]

If they switch to SY won’t they just bioband all the May-July kids down? [/quote]
It depends on the situation. If MLSN stays BY and they wanted to compete in a SY tournamant they can just "bioband" down however many players they can find born between 8/1 and 12/31. Theres no set rules .
However most likely what will happen if MLSN stays BY is they'll just ignore SY events only playing in BY tournaments. This will force SY teams to find players born between 1/1 and 7/31 if ECNL wants to play against MLSN teams.

People that comment here have ECNL on the brain and arent considering that both SY and BY leagues will have the same issue playing in each other's tournaments.

Realistically what will happen is SY league teams will be forced to play 6 month older BY league teams. This is because MLSN is the dominate league on the boys side. The only way to increase rankings will be to participate in BY events. This is why boys ECNL parents are freaking out so much. Going to SY could be really bad for them.[/quote]

What BY events/tournaments? The only events/tournaments that would be BY (if MLSN stays BY) will be the MLSN events (Flex. Fest and Cup/Showcase). ECNL teams can't play in those anyway. All of the huge showcases (Jeff Cup, etc.) will all be SY.

Now I could see some of those huge showcases adding a top BY division to try and fish for more MLSN teams. But again, most MLSN teams don't play in tournaments! [/quote]
There will be incentive for MLSN to invite ECNL teams to their big BY tournaments. Also there will also be incentive for BY leagues to create new new BY tournaments.[/quote]

Neither of these things will happen.

[i]"There will be incentive for MLSN to invite ECNL teams to their big BY tournaments"[/i] This is one of the dumbest things I've read here. And that is saying a lot.

[i]" Also there will also be incentive for BY leagues to create new new BY tournaments."[/i] Sure. So MLSN is going to start a brand new 'open' tournament that is BY, but try and invite SY teams to it? Genius business move. And, they do so well now running their current events, can't wait to see this new one! I particularly like that it will be BY in a world where 95% of the teams that may want to go to it are SY. Again, genius business move! When do you think this new tournament will happen? [/quote]
Hahahaha triggered much?

You think you have the world figured out. Unfortunately its not that easy. Every decision has unintended consequences.

Why wouldn't MLSN invite top ECNL teams to play in their BY events? Particularly at the younger ages. They know ECNL teams wont do it and if they do they'll be playing against BY teams that are 6 months older. Worse comes to worse and the ECNL teams win MLSN teams will just recruit their players.

If both MLSN and GA stay BY there will be a huge incentive to create BY tournaments.[/quote]
