Arlington is a real club with good coaches, fields, and a player pool. Metro United is a joke.

This is a troll trying to start a fight. Don't take the bait.

Agree. The original question is a good one though, considering Metro has a very good training program, coaching staff, and hasn’t upset ECNL in any way.

Great training program and coaching staff? Just because you say it and tell your little doesn’t mean it’s true. Metro was in last in every age group. Will they be able field teams in GAL? Lots of their players looking for spots on ecnl rosters.

Unless you are an ECNL coach, or a MU parent who probably would not be trashing their own club, how would you know this?

It is nothing more than a glorified rec organization. Stop the nonsense. Arlington is not ready for ECNL and does not produce enough talent to justify membership. Let the top girls move on if they can find a team to take them. The rest should go back to CCL.

I don't know anything about the girls teams and you may well be correct, although it appears some people at least disagree with you. But the boys teams, assuming the players remained with Arlington of course, would be the strongest teams by quite some distance.

This is why, although I have no direct knowledge, I believe that the rumors regarding ECNL possibly being willing to admit Arlington, but only if both boys and girls join together, might be true.

Arlington 03 would lose to all 3 ECNL teams and have already. Arlington 04 would lose to at least McLean. This is boys.

I don't know about Arlington 03. But Arlington 04 is the best team in the state and would slaughter McLean.

McLean 04s actually beat Arlington 04s. The only team that got slaughtered is Arlington 03s, BRYC beat them by 7 or 8 goals.

Why hasn’t Arlington communicated it’s plans to us? What is the delay?

They are trying to put the best options together. And, they have not obtained their goal yet. If they had, they would announce it. But the longer it takes the worse the options usually get. If ECNL was certain on them for both boys and girls it would be done by now. They are not. The boys had DA longer than the girls. So assume the boys get ECNL. The girls don’t have a long history of placing kids in D1 versus McLean or Bethesda. So assume that is not in the bag. Give them a break. There are many ex DA teams in the same situation. An answer is coming. You may not like it if you have a boy or girl, but it’s coming.

ECNL added teams this week from the NE and GAL announced their NE division. GAL announced their Mid America division this week and ECNL has been announcing new clubs in the same area, including a brand new Louisville club. There are a lot of things in motion in secret negotiations with high pressure on the whole process. 10 days is lifetime for this sudden closure of one national boys and girls league, during a pandemic, and three national leagues competing for the remnants. Patience is warranted.

Secret negotiations.....lol

Then go ahead and tell us all of the behind the scenes details. We're waiting.

Lol. If you ask that, then you really have no clue....

Still waiting. That means you're not in on the SECRET.
