Discovery Players
A “Discovery Player” is a player that is not a full time member of the ECNL Club to which she is registered and is an exception to Rule 2.11 above.
A Discovery Player may appear on an active roster for a team of a non ECNL Club or a non ECNL Team of another ECNL Club.
In order to be considered a Discovery Player, a player must be explicitly designated as such on the ECNL Roster before such player participates in any ECNL Competition. Discovery Players are eligible to participate in all ECNL Competitions.
2.12.1.1 At the Under 14, Under-15, Under-16, and Under-17 age groups, each ECNL Team may have two (2) Discovery Players on their ECNL Roster at each age group.
2.12.2.2
At the Under-18 age group, each ECNL Team may have four (4) Discovery
Players on their ECNL Roster.
2.12.3
Discovery Players may only play for the ECNL Team for which they are initially
rostered within the ECNL Season. Discovery Players are subject to Rule 2.6, and are
club-tied and team-tied for ECNL Competition during the ECNL Season.
2.12.4
Discovery Players may come from any distance away from the ECNL Club.

Rule 1:
"A Discovery Player is a player that is not a member of an ECNL Member Club in any capacity."
A Discovery Player may appear on an active roster for a team of a non ECNL Club or a non ECNL Team of another ECNL Club.
You would appear to be wrong.

So just to be clear, IF a current ECNL player which is US Club soccer wanted to register with a USYS team could they.? According to USYS there is NO rules that keep an ECNL player from registering with them. They are seperate entities. So my understanding of a discovery player is a us club soccer registered player from a different non-ECNL team can be a discovery player for a Us club soccer ECNL team from a different club. Again that makes being a USYS registered player and a US Club soccer ECNL player not related in anyway and doesn't mean they are a discovery player at all.

Seems like a pretty big loophole. Especially since the last bullet point on the bottom of page 14 says Multiple Club Rostering is frowned upon.
