Yep. So many liars and cheats.

There’s a waiver for private school.

Same at ours and they aren’t even having a good HS season. lol

Hence, MLSN being “glorified rec”. Most Parents of MLSN kids lose their sh!t over this realisation but doesn’t make it any less true.

do what you want for your DS, p2p don't own you

I think it would be a good business decision and help retain better players for mls next. I have seen a few players every year that are top half of u14 and u15 drop down and play tier 2 or leave for ECNL so the can play HS ball. I don’t agree next is glorified rec ball but is true it is rare any of these kids go pro.

Very insightful responses so far.

Are you an adult or a kid? "Glorified rec" and not going pro such juvenile language. But if for some reason you or your kid are involved do what you want.

No. Play ECNL, EDP or any of the alternatives available. Stop complaining. Markets correct themselves if MLS Next loses money by you leaving. Take action and stop complaining.
