How do people feel BSC did for next year's teams? I know some teams lost top players while others added. Parents feelings about coaches seem to vary depending on their own personal experiences.

Please move your SY conversation to that thread. This one is for BSC haters only.

Meaning it would seem to make sense to align MLSNext 2 with the school birth year.

Right, one way they’re selling MLSNext 2 is that boys can play for their HS teams which is prohibited with MLSNext.

Even within the same club you might have splits on the Boys side depending on what MLSNext Tier 2 or NAL do?

I think US Soccer made this compromise because the vast majority of players will never go pro or play internationally so the school year makes sense for them but MLS and the National teams can’t ignore what FIFA does.

Either way it’s going to be a mess, who knows what EDP or NCSL or tournaments like the Jeff Cup will do. State Cups will now go back to School year following USYS.

So, Bethesda could have calendar year for the boys and school year for the girls to align with ECNL.

That’s on the Boys side, I am not sure about ECNL or GA for the girls.

Yes, but Bethesda will follow MLS Next which will follow MLS and the rest of FIFA which uses the calendar birth year.

um, bethesda doesn't get to pick and chose which registration date they use. It's all dependent on the league they are in.
