Not all of them. With the new age group change there are going to be many sophomores on U15 teams.

You have it backwards:

U13 - mostly 7th graders
U14 - mostly 8th graders
U15 - mostly freshman
U16 - mostly sophomores
U17 - mostly juniors
U18 - mostly seniors

The only misalignment would be if there was an August kid who moved to a younger team

I just realized that. The Kansas City now the first Florida event starts at U16, was U15 this current season. The second one is U16 as well. Those sophomores on U15 getting a raw deal.

Gives clubs some options and it's better than TN or MO or KS in December! I was always surprised that they had the January Florida event and another right after it...our club would typically only do the January event. Our club has already told us that Arizona and the January Florida event are in for next year and will be considering what 3rd event to attend for the U16/U17 groups.

lol it was a mistake. It’s been updated back to Greensboro.

$$$ over safety... Plenty of injuries due to conditions. Key players lost for season because of terrible ECNL planning.

They didn’t move it up - they got rid of it! ECNL St Louis is now for U13/U14 in September No college coaches needed

Wow ECNL HQ actually listened and moved ECNL St Louis (girls) up to September (from December). But now will college coaches show up in the middle of their college season?!
