And the boys side will be beta testing this approach. But ECNL is Regionalizing their NPL leagues all across the country. Like it or not, this is the direction they are heading towards. US Club Soccer is the parent organization of both leagues and they will likely find it in their best interest to capitalize on the ECNL brand, roll in NPL clubs and create smaller regionalized divisions witht he best teams per division earning their way into the national showcase events and playoffs.

They do have to go NPL by NPL to get buy in from the member clubs and leagues but this is the ultimate goal.

It comes with some pros and cons.

Obviously the league will be watered down, which is why they are more than happy to give PDA, Michigan and Real Colorado two teams per division, they simply don't care.

The greatest PRO is the potential for a less travel intensive league with the potential for real national level Promotion/Relegation.

But, in a very short time the proposed VA ECNL Conference is likely going to be very, very real.[/quote]
