[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]McLean carries HUGE rosters.  I don't see how merging is going to work.  How are you merging rosters of 30 with roster of 22.  That's 52 kids.  And, sorry, you can't tell in 2-3 ID sessions who is a 'main' player which also varies by coach's preferences and style of play.  Where are all the excess kids going? Not sure at the recruiting years many will want lower than ECNL/GA/MLSn, etc.

It truly sucks for the rising Juniors who will be in peak recruiting year next year.[/quote]

Yep, ECNL is handing these kids to the 3 GA clubs on a platter. Flowing 30-40 customers per age group towards the GA clubs. They may just succeed in making the GA clubs the preferred clubs in Fairfax County![/quote]

And don’t forget that SYC before partnering with McLean was successful sending kids to USNT or D1 colleges. The didn’t need ECNL or GA to develop top players. [/quote]

This just isn’t true. SYC sending players to usynt? Haha[/quote]

I think they meant generally YNT. The main reason why SYC has been good immediately in MLSN and will rise with the tide that is GA's current vision of building infrastructure of smaller to medium size clubs who have a track record of developing talent at any cost and not doting to US soccer. Because soccer frankly just matter more to these families; and because SYC has always catered to those families that live, breath, and live close by SYC facilities. Mainly immigrant communities who do not care or even know about ECNL/GA is until its too late. Their country's YNT is far more significant achievement. Now everyone pretty much knows all the leagues and boom GA shows up at you doorstep and in a vulnerable position with mighty FCV falling apart in VA. Time will tell but SYC is Rising

Don't care about MD, cause Bethesda has all that on lock, but Coppermine is interesting too in the same SYC convo IMO [/quote]
