[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]To all the ECNL people sweating the MLS/GA alliance.

You might want to check out who is in charge of youth development at NWSL and where they came from. (Hint it's US Soccer)

Do you know what a coach educator or staff instructor is for US Soccer? It’s the staff that teaches coaching license courses. You should look up the number of coaches and the levels they coach at that are instructors for US Soccer. It’s not what you think it is.

Both my DD’s coaches do the same thing. One is RL coach and one is ECNL. They teach licenses.

What’s the link between US Soccer/NWSL/GA?[/quote]
NWSL Director of Youth Development

What does that tell you?[/quote]That they have a title but no real job or responsibilities. Like being a banks' Director of Ethics.[/quote]
The job and title are there for a reason.

Put more simply the NWSL employee in charge of integrating youth players with NWSL has a 15 year history with US Soccer (not ECNL).

My guess and I could be reaching out on a limb here. She has more experience working with US Soccer then any other group or entity. This person was hired because of their background and relationships (and maybe because she's black. But if you look at her background there's a lot of merit)

If I was working at ECNL this is the person I'd be buying drinks for at events.[/quote]

Why would you be buying drinks for this person?[/quote]
Hahaha keep sweating 😓 [/quote]So you are speculating that this person can conjure up about $5 to $10 m per year and put together an NWSL youth league because of a network and former role as an advisor/consultant? That would take support, a team, a business model, vision and the willingness to absorb huge losses. Placing that on one person without any knowledge of what they do is unfair. You should write for the National Enquire.[/quote]

I think there’s actually more to it.

A couple of months ago, Scarves and Spikes reported that MLS was looking to start a pro women’s league in 2027, and that it would require NWSL to merge with it.
