With so many changes to the landscape in the region coupled with changes that did not happen because of Covid, there just seems to be a logjam of players trying out at different clubs. So every club is having to wait through more players declining/accepting players. [/quote]

MLS clubs snagging players from ASA.[/quote]

Goes both ways :lol: [/quote]

ASA's back door is wide open and the front door is quiet. A lot of long time players bailing for MLS teams - Achilles, etc. There's no draw to Arlington any longer on the boys side, you can play ECNL lots of places.[/quote]

I don't know about the younger teams, but none of the kids from the older teams (i.e. long time players) are bailing, except the ones leaving for actual MLS clubs.[/quote]

Lol. Yeah. All the asa kids who are signing pro contracts. Can you name a few for us?[/quote]

Nobody said they were signing pro contracts.  They're just moving to MLS youth academies.[/quote]

Got it. Thought you were implying they were going pro directly. Wouldn’t surprise me if they were staying put otherwise.  Good teams and coaching.  [/quote]

I think the question is more about whether the younger kids are looking elsewhere. Earlier posts on HS soccer and a focus on college soccer seemed like good points to me. I have made those points to my kid, who remains interested in mls next, much to my chagrin. [/quote]

The young kid should make his decision based on quality of coaching.  If he moves to MLS Next he can always switch back provided he has continued to develop.  That said - I'm not convinced that the coaching at our local MLS Next clubs is as good as Arlington's, although it obviously varies based on the age group and specific coaches involved.[/quote]
