Understatement! Hanging onto some else's coattail.

Okay. Apparently I’m a chimp and can’t find the schedule. Can someone post the URL?

Some interesting ECNL - MLSN matches. Looks like Achillies is playing a RL team at the U15 level. Will be an interesting conversation the following week between the ECNL hats and MLSN simps.

Oddly specific. Ladies and gents, I’d like to introduce you to the Achilles FC stalker.

Let me save some time. The troll starts innocently enough, but by martini 5, you’ll read all about the screaming coaches and the horrible way they mistreat their players. In reality, someone’s DC (ahem) didn’t make Achilles FC’s MLSNext team during the tail-end of COVID, so the bash always start with (checks calendar) U15 (this year), but the troll will find a way to drag every age group into it.

Then absolutely no show for arguably the most competitive fall area matches around tells you a lot. Going to be some great games and competition in these "friendlies". Best clubs show up all the way from North Carolina. If you can't take the heat the saying goes.

Academy Division, that's what MLS Next has named MLS Next 2, as opposed to Homegrown Division which is the top group.

It should be some version of...
MLSNext
MLSNext II or 2
Pre-MLSNext for U12

Anything other than that is a reach
