[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm a GA parent ... I don't see any Top 30 clubs moving to GA from ECNL anytime. Not even sure GA will get 31-60.

And since the majority of the top clubs produce the stats that ECNL loves to have, I don't agree ENCL slowly declining.

ECNL could lose clubs 61-100 to GA and they still have all the stats they want and all they really care about from those first 60 clubs[/quote]

I hear what you’re saying, and I’d agree.. today ECNL still has the top 30 pretty locked in.

But as an ECNL parent, I’ve started hearing more chatter lately that makes me think it’s not as locked as it seems. There are rumors floating around about big clubs  at least exploring a move to Girls Academy tied to getting into MLS Next on the boys side for 27–28.

If even a couple of those types of clubs make that jump, it changes the conversation quickly. It’s not about 61–100, that doesn’t move the needle. But if clubs in that 20–50 range start making decisions based on pathway alignment instead of just league prestige, that’s where things get interesting.

ECNL will still have strong clubs, no doubt. But the idea that the top 60 are untouchable might not hold if the MLS Next piece starts influencing decisions more than it has in the past.[/quote]

blah blah blah rumors - no top ECNL club is moving to GA[/quote]

Hold on... We talked for 20 pages about rumors of GA teams moving to ECNL. Its time to start speculating about who will move to GA to get MLS Next.

I know one Club that wants to be in GA + MLS Next
