That would certainly solve Union’s problems. But not GA. Do you have any evidence that older girls will choose Ga over ECNL? Because I do. As I said, evidence suggests otherwise. Clubs that choose boys over girls lose girls. Facts.

I doubt they move if they get a second tier MLSN placement, like McLean. I don’t see that as being worth a change, but Arlington is likely good enough for a top MLSN spot. As more clubs make the switch from ECNl to GA on the girls side may help soften the blow on the girls side.

Needless to say, more moves coming in the next 18-24 months.


Sooner


Arlington will be MLSN/GA after this season. Announcement coming in the spring. Most of the girls will stay with the club. DMV rapidly becomes MLSN/GA hot spot and ECNL falls a little further down.


Haha. Funny. Evidence suggest otherwise.

Where will they go? Union?

It is the girl's side that drives Arlington not the boy's. No way they move.


Paperwork already done.
