[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No natter if u use the above idea or something else...soccer for young teens needs to be more inclusive not less.  Cheaper, less travel, more players.  No sense is limiting the pool so young.  Makes no sense.[/quote]

This is where people are of two minds. I happen to think it is a good approach for the reasons you say, however, there are people who have bought into the exclusivity model that ECNL and DA provide.

Image wise, while ECNL will end up the largest league in the nation, it will certainly take a hit on its exclusivity. For those who believe in promotion relegation your time is nearly upon you.

So, what this will mean for those kids who do wish to showcase they will have to be very selective about the particular team they join in hopes that they win their way into the larger quality showcases. [/quote]

The largest leagues for teens will always be school based leagues.  No way that a league that requires travel by airplanes, rental cars, hotel rooms, etc.  Will ever be the largest league in the country.   How deep in the bubble do you live?[/quote]

School based is not National. Stop it. [/quote]
