[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Having had some time to dwell on this - I think for us, it's not that my kid was really going to move up from AD to HG - it's that the illusion of the possibility has been removed.

He's a starter on his u16 AD team now, playing 75% of the game, [b]there's no universe in which dropping a year is good for his development[/b] or would prepare him to make the Homegrown team.

What the impact of that will be we'll see. I let him know last night and we'll wait for comms from the club and do MLS Fest. [b]There is an ECNL club in town[/b]. [/quote]
Wouldn't he have to make that same shift of "dropping a year down" if he went ECNL?? Or are you saying because ECNL is a lesser league, he can go there and play up at the age you want him to play at?[/quote]

He is probably an aug-dec kid which means he will play down in ECNL and MLSN2 which means he will not be prepared for the MLSN HG BY teams. If MLSN HG SY is aimed for players to become pro, how many kids will really do become pro or want to become? most parent are aiming for college only.  [/quote]
