[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If Arlington does not get ecnl they are done on the girls side. Everyone will leave at u13 or before. [/quote]

They go back to pre-2107 and reestablish their connection with Mclean.  Not hard to figure out. [/quote]

McLean already blocked Arlington.  They have veto power.  That's how ECNL works.[/quote]

How does McLean have veto power? Are they in charge of the ECNL? I've heard this exact statement from a bunch of parents. Does each team get one veto?[/quote]

Don't make the mistake of thinking ECNL is in the business of anything other than serving its member clubs. Sometimes new club expansion benefits the member clubs, and it happens. Other times, not so much, and it ain't happening.

Arlington, FCV and MU ain't happening.  Instead, ECNL will let McLean, Loudoun, VDA and BRYC try to bleed those ex-DA teams of their top talent.  That helps the member clubs and the overall league.[/quote]

This is exactly my thoughts
I see them absorbing the players into their core clubs and dismissing those former DA clubs as a whole.  Whats in it for them to absorb another club?   The answer lies in $$$ or  the impact of the current member clubs.  In a region they need/want an established club they will invite that organization but in a region that is saturated like Northern VA with existing ECNL what do they gain by taking on more clubs?   Mclean Loudoun VDA and BRYC likely make out with additional player interest and volumes.  The talent pool within ECNL grows and all is good as far as they are concerned[/quote]

Maybe.  But if an alternative is presented for DA girls and the talent doesn’t go to existing ECNL clubs, ECNL shoots themselves in the foot by gambling that players will move. Plenty of time for new options to emerge locally and nationally that can sell to the top talent. Should that happen ECNL will be back to it’s second league status in the region.
