Ive seen english premier league u-23 teams but never mls academy. How do the mls academy teams compare to top flight D1 womens soccer or NWSL? There is a good chance you might not have seen either but I had to ask.

The fact that you have to fight for your spot, like pro player made her train even harder, the no-return rule turns girls into women, and as her parent, I fully supported the system. The ECNL rule of coming back in the next half is great for marginal players, the 10 minutes they get before each half strung them along just enough to keep them on the team, my daughter was a starter not by politics, or favoritism, but by hard work and the toughness required to succeed.
