Tier 2 WILL allow for HS play. Should help bring players.

This will be McLean’s top team. They are moving from ECNL, not ECNL-R, so the travel requirements will be about the same.


Are you implying the brave mclean players will leave a national platform to play against Loudoun RL and Revolution RL?

What do you mean?! All of our kids are going to be on NVA now that it’s just a fancy name for Loudoun Soccer! 🤣

Possibly, but also very likely top players from that team are currently trying out for top MLSN and ECNL teams. Many may have already accepted offers.

Yep. Bethesda and Alexandria too.
Lots of travel in store for folks in that mid Atlantic division.


Probably just a little more travel than they are doing today playing NAL

Let's not forget, half their games are Home


I wonder what this means, if anything, for the top tier divisions. There are a lot of differences between this list and the current top tier division. specifically the tri-state division that has a lot of the new jersey teams currently in MLS Next, but not all of them. It also has FA listed. If I was a jersey team (like PDA) and did not get into the tri-state division, I'd be incensed.


This is mainly administered by NAL league

No impact to MLS Next
