Didn’t they used to?


ECNL has to bow to almighty HS soccer and the two State's HS seasons do not align.

When you're paying $500+ for a bus trip to the Carolina's or to Jersey you can thank HS soccer for the bill.


Um, No one in the NA is paying $500 to travel to NJ, which is three hours away. Try again!

Answer your own prayer and play in a regional league. The ECNL was here be for you and will be here after you. There will be no realignment.


Since you are a nobody within ECNL, this is uniformed bluster. And if you can read, I said 'pray for'. I pray for a lot of things, notably, trolls like you read a self-help book. Re-alignment can happen any year so easily that after it happens, it will be a "well duh, that was simple". I guess the boys have never re-aligned. I guess Girls DA or GA never happened. Crap happens... stick to hoping your DD's season can see .500.


Why so angry? Re-alignment is not happen for a very specific reason. Man up

HS soccer is pee regardless of the other side of the comparison

Wrong. MD and states North HS soccer seasons align.


Both reason then. Pda will absolutely not have all their teams in the same conference. Will not happen.


Then add more clubs in the NJ area to ECNL.


Of course but since they will only add more pda teams, that will not help.

That is for boys. With DCUM, assume everyone is talking about girls unless they specifically say boys.


Got it! Thanks

I'm sure some cross division games will become more the norm. Ideally ECNL starts to move back to a true ten month season like they had before trying to distinguish themselves from DA.
