ECNL is a closed league and will remain that way. The U.S. has no open league in any sport at any level. True pro/rel in a national level league will never happen in our lifetime so stop dreaming about it and stop thinking that your merry band of Goliath killers will ever get a piece of the larger pie.
EDP is pretty close

All the teams can be awarded 3-0 wins when a team forfeits. The club’s scorekeeper just needs to let CCL know to enter it. My guess is the clubs that didn’t get the points thought it’s automatic but it’s not. I’m a team manager on a CCL team and confirmed this for my own team.
There must be a major communication break down then between some clubs and the league when it comes to reporting scores to the table. Sometimes it's 3 or 4 weeks before they'll post some games. Sometimes never as in the case with these forfeits. Not that this is a huge deal in the grand scheme of things, but I think it shows lack of follow through.

CCL is dead. And we can all live in a world where parents stop crying about road trips to VA Beach even though they never had to do so.
All of these teams should have just stayed in the NCSL. I don’t get it. Nobody cares about leagues except the leagues and the idiotic clubs and parents who are chasing the brand.
What are you talking about? CCL has been around for over a decade.
Uh, yeah, your point being?
+1 A lot of us have had kids in youth soccer for well over a decade, and we remember when CCL started and the ridiculous claims the self-serving CCL and club leadership made about elite the league would be and how their model was going to be vastly better than what NCSL offered. Some parents actually bought into it for a while, and I always felt embarrassed on their behalf. Good riddance.
Feeling embarrassed on someone else's behalf is usually indicative of some sort of psychological problem. Have you got checked out?
Oh dear. That was a truly cringe-worthy attempt at a burn. Now I am embarrassed on your behalf.
No burn intended. Just thought you might need some help.

Agreed. Va Beach is beautiful this weekend. Sun, sand, we got a tie. Could be worse.
