ECNL for boys is worse than CCL.
Really? I'm an Arlington parent and I would have gone to MLS instead of ECNL, but of course no one asked me...
Same here. While, at the recent townhall, Arlington explained what broad factors they took into account, they did not explain in detail what were the advantages of going ECNL.
Even if the MLS league comes with some risk, why not take that risk, knowing that the ECNL will always be ready for you...

I’m the OP, above. Also an Arlington Boys DA parent. I didn’t say that I necessarily agreed with the decision, but if you were on the call with the Academy director, you would know how they came to their decision to join the ECNL this Fall. It was a well thought out decision even if you don’t agree with the choice to join ECNL over MLS.
Interesting. There are ECNL clubs that are also in the MLS league, so they did not need to choose one or the other unless I am missing something. Top team presumably would play MLS, second team ECNL.
Which teams? I do not know of a single club that is now part of the Boys ECNL that was also on the list of clubs participating in the MLS league. Please be specific.
FC Dallas, Houston Dynamo, FC Delco, PDA, NEFC, Colorado Rapids...

Orlando City is in both
Interesting. Not sure how or why?
Is ECNL going to see its first defection?

Arlington would have been at the bottom of the league standings for all the age divisions it wouldn't have made them look very good

Anyone know what age groups will be in the MLS league? That could be part of Arlington's decision.

All this talk from ALL you parents and the only one accepted is a team from Baltimore HA! teams from NOVA right now must really be feeling hurt.
Umm DC United academy is a northern VA club that will play out of Loudon county.
And your point is that they are in Northern VA but didn’t include any NOVA Clubs?
your an Idiot. DC is in the process of moving operations from DC to NOVA the United 1st team will only play their games in DC
When you call someone an idiot, please make sure you spell correctly, otherwise you are the one that looks like the true idiot. It’s “you’re” which is short for “you are”. “Your” means possession, or belonging to.
