Go ask the only 06 promotion that happened AFTER tryouts and AFTER wife of coach's job was secure. Bubble tryhard player. No more deserving than any others. Slid right in. And she's really not helping the ECNL team but they are helping her.

One would guess if she compete at ecnl level she won’t remain on the team. How are you sure this is the reason for the promotion ?

Then the 2nd team players steps onto the ECNL field and is completely overmatched and lost. Those kids give it their all at practice but it's no where near game level for the top team kids.

You keep telling yourself that. Sure, a 2nd team players may need some adjustment to ECNL speed only because they are not used to it or had opportunity but IF you took top 4 players on second team and bottom 4 players on ECNL team, mixed them up, and asked group of independent, unbiased coaches to evaluate, you would get some random results that don't look anything like reality. Guaranteed. But over time, the bottom 4 ECNL players will have some advantage and edge due to opportunity and exposure the others never get. Those stuck on second team also tend to be more athletic, which you need at ECNL, not these tiny (or large becoming overweight) Scotty's dribble princesses that get run over in prime time on the big fields.

All the rumors that swirl right before tryouts. Every single year.

Hide Your Ugly

Anyone notice anything funny about the FESA tryout schedule? All the tryouts are held on 3 fields, one right after the other. That is, all but 2 groups. 2007 girls and 2009 boys are on a separate field, not sandwiched between other tryouts. Of course a chunk of 2009 boys went to Prime and 2007 girls took off the year before for JFC. Do they not want the general public to see the low numbers and talent?

Just maybe the B team players are playing more and not of the bench in games and they are improving more each year. The problem lies in the stigma of being on the A or B team so remove that barrier. Make the bottom third or more of A and top third or more of B be dual rostered. Train teams together and rotate playing time for the A games. They will have the social peer group love of the game in whole group training but might start requesting B games to play more.

No. Combining never works out.

This is something club directors say, to get B team parents to commit. But seldom make good on their “duel rostering” or “guest playing” promises once they get paid. It’s a clever trick to stop B team parents, or relegated A team players from seeking alternatives.

It isn’t as simple to “dual roster” from non-ECNL to
ECNL, if not designated as ECNL. As far as game situations, ECNL teams need to consist of the best players out there working as a team.

Good Ol’ Field 2. Surely no one will notice....

ECNL rosters can have up to 30 players on a roster. A and B practice together at least once a week. Take 22 to an ECNL game and the others can help out the B game that week. Compete for positions and playing time at practice.

Ugly orphans hidden from sight. Also, could be large influx of new, paying players for those ages so want to keep that hidden from sight too.

I do agree with the idea of a true dual roster where number of players have similar/exchange of privileges both training and playing games up and DOWN. But even that is going to tweak entitled parents who demand the best for their kids and grease FESA coaches to make it happen. Once they taste exclusive ECNL privileges, it is tough sell on dual roster with downward mobility and privileges. And then you will always have bitching and moaning for mid to lower B teamers that think they deserve dual-roster status and privileges. Just easier for the club to make clean cuts. Not necessarily the right thing to do.
