Yes, we heard back the same day, another kid from the same team also heard back same day.


Do they ever just ignore an email? I’ve emailed twice and haven’t heard back. Our player is looking to perhaps make a change from a current DA program. Pretty weird they haven’t responded.


We got given a date and time to tryout... what age group did you apply for?

Bad sign of organizational issues.

I think they invite you if you contact them. They would rather you go out and practice with their team vs seperate tryouts. Just send them an email if you are interested.

In general BRYC invites players who have contacted the ECNL Director to come out to a practice to work out with the age group that they would be eligible for. Those "sessions" will start in February.

Just says sessions start Feb 1 and gives an email to contact. We haven’t heard back.

Has anyone been “invited” to attend the upcoming 2019-20 BRYC ECNL ID sessions? I believe they are supposed to start next weekend?

With VDA and BRYC also now posting ID sessions on their websites, does anyone know when Loudoun, McLean and BSC will post ID sessions? It would seem to be in their interest to do so sooner rather than later, as girls will have committed to Arlington, FCV, VDA and BRYC before those other clubs have even hosted their sessions. Or am I missing something?

I get that, if someone is switching clubs, then they would likely already have attended several practice with the other club and may already have received an offer. However, it seems that some girls' hands will be forced, if one club has a much earlier ID session than another. If that is the case, then it would seem to be in the best interest of a club to have their ID sessions in Jan and Feb., as opposed to waiting until April or May, for example.


When are ECNL clubs permitted to begin ID sessions? Isn’t the date later in the spring season?


ID sessions are permitted, but current ECNL players can't attend another ECNL club's session until after May 1.


What about current U12s?


They can go to ID sessions since they aren’t ECNL players yet. The only situation I would think would be an issue is if the U12 player is rostered to a current U13 ECNL team because she is playing up, or has an ECNL card to play up occasionally. A U12 player in an ECNL club is free to go to sessions now if they only have a US Club or VYSA card.



So do ECNL teams typically schedule ID sessions for the upcoming U13 season early, or do they just accept that DA teams go early and get a first mover advantage in forming their rosters?


I think all the ECNL and DA clubs have sessions for rising U13 and older already advertised. No club defers to another for "first pick" at any age. You may have to reach out to the club for specific dates/times, but they're all getting going now.
