So is it going to happen? Isn't this the deal they had in place last year that fell through?

Every club highlights their virtues. If your player would be better served in ECNL or DA go and play there but that doesn't mean CYA must provide it just because it would be convenient for your kid. In the end, CYA serves more kids than say FCV and that is CYA's purpose, to provide access to organized sports to as many kids as possible. That is their virtue.
