MLSn/GA clubs will have a chance to play at Generation Adidas Cup in April, and well, STA, SJEB, TopHat, SC Surf are good programs they will most likely not be included.

Makes you wonder..


Those clubs want MLSN, not ECNL for the girls. Being left out of one tournament won't push them to ECNL for boys and girls.


What makes a club a good program....one or 2 decent teams or how are you defining it as a club?

In the 2 youngest age groups I would agree. The Academy teams 2010 and older will be fine, particularly if they bioband a few of the Q3/4 players on existing Academy and ECNL teams.

Am hoping going from 4 teams (2 RL, 2 NL) to 3 will help with the loss of players to Fox SA, as most RL teams are as non-competitive as the ECNL teams 09 and younger.


For CISC, I see this more of a strategic move against Fox (who they were losing players to) vs a repudiation of ECNL. Fox got MLSN2 on boys side and is DPL on girls side - and no secret they want to be MLSN/GA eventually. If CISC gets MLSN plus 2 MLSN2 teams, they will pull top players back from Fox who want to play MLS Next, and at MLSN2 level, it will be all about what clubs facilities are more convenient for most families.

On girls side, CISC in GA will preclude Fox from ever getting it. North Charlotte area isn't anywhere as populated as DMV and two GA teams there would just make them both watered down and terrible.



CISC has bigger problems, mainly $$$$$. Supposedly they haven't paid their field fees for months.

Are you trying to say that CISC left ECNL for MLSN and GA because ECNL wasn't making the club enough money?

Given the departures from mid-Atlantic, and the recent promotions of RL teams in other divisions, is ECNL going to promote some Virginia RL teams to NL?
