If they don't they'll just swith back to GA and try to leverage into MLSN. Competition is good now that GA+MLSN are working as s bundle the way ECNL was with both boys and girls being mandatory for clubs to play in ECNL girls.

Why is competition all of a sudden good in GA because of a partnership with MLSNext? What club have they added that's a real game changer? Is a McLean or Loudoun (team below NVA) stand alone GA team any better than the SC Surf teams?

Uhh yeah..NVA alone is a very solid pick up. And so is Charlotte independence.

ECNL does not equal good.

There are many many abysmal ECNL clubs.

Even with the mass exodus from the NVA girls teams?

I noticed NVA teams losing games in the MA standings recently. Did the girls already leave NVA?

The good part about GA and ECNL partnering and competing for clubs is that it pressures leagues to let in the top performers from lower leagues. If they don't do this the other leagues will let them in.

The needle of team/club LEVEL on a league basis has not shifted much at all.

In relation to girls only..

GA top end is no better
GA middle is deeper than last year (Midwest, NVA, Charlotte)
GA bottom end is getting worse with the new club adds (the clubs ranked 400-1200)

ECNL top end is no better
ECNL middle is slightly worse (loss of Midwest, NVA, Charlotte)
ECNL bottom end is no better

ECNL-RL top end has gotten better
ECNL-RL middle is the same
ECNL-RL bottom end has got more depth now

Because MLSN+GA are now considered a package deal if clubs want MLSN they'll need to play their girls in GA.

This is exactly the opposite of what ECNL used to do. If clubs wanted girls ECNL they'd need to play their boys in ECNL.

Lather rinse repeat and you can see where this is going. Most clubs favor boys teams which means they'll want into MLSN.

SC Surf
Los Gatos United

Don’t all of a sudden become great. It’s all location based. SC Surf won’t pull any new players, because they are so deep in SC that all the best players in that area are already there…

Now if a big club like CUP. City SC. tophat. IMG

We’re to go ECNL, then they would pull kids from the other local ECNL clubs.

All location based.

You don't know your locations very well...IMG teams are trash until U16 and above, and in "deep" SC there's 50 plus girls who leave that area to play ECNL.

Listen to me when I say SURF WILL still suck in ECRL.

Listen to me when I say ECRL sucks.

Your ECNL bias is so strong that you're defending 2nd tier leagues? Come back to reality.
