    ECNL Regional Team

    Just received email from DS’s club. Our club will have an ECNL Team and an ECNL Regional Team, plus an NPL Team per age group U12-U18/19? If someone could please explain. TIA

    Some enterprising folks at the ECNL thought “Why not have all the ECNL teams add their B teams to a new league and we can double our fees.”

    Current ECNL remains the same.
    Current NPL turns into ECRL (or ECNL 2)
    State teams/ branches will be playing NPL.

    It’s going to have to be a very big club to run 3 teams. I can’ti imagine FSA or CFC running their third teams in current NPL leagues and being successful.

      So now more players can say they are on an ECNL team. Doesn’t sound like being on an ECNL Team is going to be as elite anymore. How will colleges distinguish which ECNL team players are on when the players can just put on their resume ECNL?

        It will be Elite Clubs NATIONAL League and Elite Clubs REGIONAL League and ne’er the two shall meet.

        I am guessing there will be ECRL showcases and whatnot.

          For clubs that already have NPL teams eg here in the Northeast its just a rebranding of those teams under the ECNL banner. Only the biggest of clubs could have ECNL, ECRL, NPLand others teams (state). FSA will only be running 3 levels, CFCU two.

            It's a separate league under ECNL. Call it ECNL 2 or ECNL B league or whatever. Separate schedule including showcases. Not that hard to distinguish except for you it seems.

                  So will the NPL team at FSA play against the branch CFC NPL teams?

                        Please, please educate yourselves before we throw around big phrases like "money grab" and make posts that are not helpful to the cause.

                        As a customer -- because thats what you all are, you're a customer....you can choose not to spend your money in this manner.

                        As a business owner -- because thats what these clubs are, they are businesses (please remember that folks)....why wouldn't you charge what the market dictates? And why would you provide a service and not charge?

                            Says the guy who asks a question to give the "question man" a hard time.

                              The current NE NPL is getting re-named. That's it. Nothing to see here.... really.
