MLSN and GA are working together. It's just a matter of time before MLSN attributes happen within GA.

Homegrown isn’t happening on the girls side because it’s not part of NWSL’s model. They are the top 1 or 2 league for women in the world. MLS is maybe 10th at best. NWSL wants to attract the best players in the world. Not build a pipeline of us youth players. They just signed a collective bargaining agreement with the players that eliminated the draft and made everyone not under contract a free agent. They couldn’t do homegrown (violates the CBA) without changing the whole model they just agreed to pursue.

Current NWSL CBA actually discusses the potential for the league to implement home grown players as a rule/category, but the league hasn't ever acted on it.

For those curious

From the "Definitions" section

(u) “Home Grown Player” shall mean a youth player who was developed by a Team prior to becoming a professional soccer player with the NWSL.

From section 6.2

As such, NWSL may take any action not in conflict with any express provision of this Agreement, any SPA, or any applicable law in the exercise of its management rights. Such rights include but are not limited to [...] maintaining, modifying, or implementing Home Grown Player/Player development, ...

From Section 13.3- Mechanisms for Acquiring Players’ Rights

Section 13.3 – [...] If NWSL seeks to create a Home Grown Player Rule, it will notify the NWSLPA and allow the NWSLPA the opportunity for input, but the NWSL retains the discretion to implement the Rule.

From Section 15 - Roster size

In the event NWSL implements a Home Grown Player rule during the term of this Agreement, NWSL will be permitted to roster Home Grown Players in excess of the maximum Roster size.

Indy Eleven???
Alexandria SC
PA Classics
Lou Fusz 2nd team?

If Alexandria gets GA, time for the entire club (boys and girls) to step up and be competitive at the top levels. What a great opportunity. Stick to your principles but level up.

Do we really think Alexandria is getting GA?

That is what people are hearing

Why all that hate towards Alexandria? Maybe not the older age groups but their 12s have been right there with the rest and these moves are more geared towards the future.

Ha ha ha ha

two years in a row ECNL getting top GA Clubs and GA adding tier 3 level talent. Bad look for the new iteration of the old bankrupt DA....

just heard Top Hat to ECNL...

Both Elk Grove Soccer and Los Gatos announced in the ECRL NorCal league and have also either switched to MLSN II, or they plan on playing in both leagues.


What’s happening right now is beyond wild. ECNL rushing announcements only to lose teams the following day. This is 100% a tried war.

Another blow to ECRL

How much shit can you stir? This is because their girls can not switch to ECNL, so the club decide to go all in for EA/GA.

You are all trying to scam parents to change the name from EA to MLS2, or no, let's name it MLS New Tire to scam more people.

Noticing a pattern here.

What’s changed in Chicago?

GA Added Midwest United ECNL

Grand Rapids is +3hrs away. There’s a big lake in between.

Ha! Funny guy Take a look again at the two clubs and see if one is the parent club. Or maybe see if you can find a website for Midwest United FC - Chicago

Tell me you don’t know Chicago without telling me you don’t know Chicago…

Midwest United Chicago was a flash in the pan. A skills trainer borrowing the name and players from other local clubs to field 2-3 teams. Would guarantee it had zero bearing on GA/ECNL/MLSN/literally anything.

I do not know Chicago anything, but could tell they were affiliated since the crest is the same. Midwest United FC is associated with the Columbus Crew.
