[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Now that the season has started, the big question is how clubs will manage the transition.

My kid is late December 2010 and plays on an RL team on one of the top ECNL programs in the country.  Both the 2010 and 2011 ECNL teams are among the top teams in the country (on par with the top MLS club academies in MLS Next in the state).

We had a tournament last weekend and were able to watch the 2011 RL team.  My son is superior to every player on that 2011 RL team technically, physically, and tactically.  It would be a significant step down for him to move to that team.

I understand that the 2010 and 2011 NL teams have had 80%+ of their rosters in place for several years now, meaning very little turnover and not many opportunities for new players to move up or in.

The inertia people naturally gravitate towards could cause a mismatch in terms of placement.  It will be interesting to see how they manage this transition in the early part of 2026.[/quote]

5 months players are moving down. I would say at least 50% roster change next year, and it will be much more for the top ECNL team.[/quote]
