Holy crap these are terrible adds.

I think the word you're looking for is "watered down".

Isn't that what all the ECNL people used to say?

Sorry to be the one to relay but leagues make $$$ from the number of clubs they can get under their umbrella. Exclusively and success create interest but they don't pay the bills unless leagues capitalize by letting more clubs join.


Call it what you want to, but every move ECNL has been a desperation move.

You never know ECNL might be able to pull a rabbit out of it hat. But I agree the moves (so far) this year seem desperate especially when compared to previous years.

The MLSN hook with GA as a by product is very appealing to clubs. Ironic because ECNL used to do the same thing with girls ECNL forcing clubs to do boys ECNL.


If ECNL was smart, they would pull Tophat and STA while they can.

This might be their last chance to do so.

The rest of the top programs in GA are MLSN

Boys will have a single team in MLS Next Competition Tier, Girls will play (allegedly) in GA, Aspire, and DPL.

This is NOT what we signed up for when we were asked to make a commitment fee after tryouts. We'll be exploring our options (as will many other families we have spoken to on our team)”

Hahaha you wont leave the club and they know it.

Honestly, the Boys ECNL in the Mid Atlantic is a total joke.

This is just the start—more clubs are gonna jump ship next year as their boys programs start falling apart. This is only getting started!

This is why all the ECNL hats here are panicking and talking so much crap. And MC and CL are panicking calling clubs to stay and promoting all the ECNL RL clubs to ECNL National ahah


Be more specific, NVA, Charlotte Independence, McLean….thats 3


McLean was not ECNL. They were only ECNL RL. FVU has the ECNL badge and they did not go to GA. MYS moving to GA is a big nothing burger. They are trading a second team for a second team…


FVU is on the verge of collapse..


No. Not really. They'll be fine.
