    Thanks. More details than I heard but did hear Carlin was a player in this. Sounds like they will be come the Union’s youth second teams essentially.
    You heard right. He was their rep for getting MLS Next. Essentially that’s what they’ll become. No clue how involved the Union are per se outside of Curtin supporting it

If you want to progress and play at another level just go to PF or Delco and see if you have the ability to play at those clubs. Do not ruin a nice town team like Radnor by pushing them to merge with another town team that loses all their good players as they age anyway.

        The RSC goals/website sure aren’t in line with MLS Next mission.


        RSC Goals
        • To provide a positive soccer experience for as many of the township’s children as possible – developing technical skills, social skills, teamwork and sportsmanship.
        • To prepare well rounded athletes for high school.
        • To provide a level of coaching and competition that allows as many township children as possible to learn the game and compete at the highest possible level within their age group.

          This new club is a merger of Radnor. Think the PAD model. It will give a platform for their best players along with Europa and LMSC. Nice to have another high level platform in the market.

            It will be fine just as long as Bif still is making six figures running LMSC. Guy works at least 40 hoours week keeping up that top notch website!

              That is nonsense.

                More money grabs trying to get Penn Fusion and Delco’s sloppy seconds

                  The Sporting PA plan has nothing to do with Radnor, LMSC or Europa. It's a currently shelved plan for BPG Sports to start an entirely new club potentially run out of YSC (was going to be a brand new facility, but latest plan was to revamp YSC one Union Academy moves out. A certain former Delco and PF coach and directly currently in Delaware would be running the soccer side of things.

                    Sporting Pa. Clone of Sporting De. All the car salesmen come out for the big $$$. Has Nova soccer done anything special in the last decade? Might be a retirement plan in the works.

                      What's not to like? Boys get MLS Next and better coaching and facilities than Penn Fusion or Delco could ever offer.
                      Girls get a GA team to give a quality alternative to the sometimes messy club situations at Delco and PF for that area. Again, coaching will likely be better than what PF and FCD can provide. Seems like a win-win proposition.

                        Can’t speak for coaching because not sure who this new club puts up but agreed. The competition is good for the kids. Let the money and talent go to the club that does the best job. Seems like a no brainer

                          Sounds great in a vacuum. But let’s look at reality. Sporting De promised the same, and it’s 10 years or more away from behind anything.

                            The sooner youth soccer moves away from its current model to a more corporate-based model, the better. Stop empowering a system is set up for failure and use the MLS clubs to back a more Euro-based model. The more hands on MLS is, the better for boys and girls in this country. .

                              Just honestly curious what is it they promised?

                                Sporting DE has ECNL boys and GA girls. I'd say they delivered on the promise of giving kids in DE a higher level of play than what was available.
