Technically the NPL teams ARE NEFC first team. The ECNL is listed as BBA.....The offer letters list the league as NPL, however, it doesn't specific Northeast or New England. My understanding is that they will be playing in New England, but it's not specifically spelled out. -
So what you are really saying is you have no idea.Originally posted by Unregistered View PostComment

It'll be interesting to see if New England NPL allows this given the new ECNL name (BBA) and if it allows them to get past the 1st team requirement. NEFC's top teams did well - it'll be interesting to see what happens when they move to ECNL.Originally posted by Unregistered View PostComment

They would be pretty dumb if they didn't. The NPL teams will compete at the top of the league.Originally posted by Unregistered View PostComment

The NPL teams are going to be extremely strong, and will do very well in the Northeast league. It's also more convenient for parents with less travel.Originally posted by Unregistered View PostComment

agree - can't imagine they'd boot the teams that have consistently been in the top 1-5 at all age groups (usually in the top 1 or 2).Originally posted by Unregistered View PostComment

Much the same as Stars and FCB can't participate, same holds true here. That is how the whole North East NPL came to be, don't forget.Originally posted by Unregistered View PostComment

NEFC teams will be in New England NPL. This goes for their Pre-ECNL GU13 team, which is the "A" team, and then all their so called "B" teams. They can get around that first team requirement because their ECNL teams are designated BBA. In New England NPL they are designated NEFC/Breakers... Therefore technically putting NEFC's top team in New England NPL.Comment

Yes, but NEFC's top NPL teams from this year have now been peeled off, and will play ECNL next year under the Breakers flag. So, it will in fact be NEFC's current B teams that will represent the club in New England NPL next season.Originally posted by Unregistered View PostComment

Can you elaborate on the question a bit - it might help people to respond without trying to figure out what questions you have.Originally posted by Unregistered View PostComment

Why is that even a question in your mind? At the end of the day your club affiliation has a heck of a lot less to do with where your child ends up with soccer than what their actual level of ability is. If they have god given talent and are motivate to capitalize on that then you will be pleasantly surprised how little any of this inter club banter actually matters. It really doesn't matter which uniform they wear, what actually matters is the level of improvement day in and day out. If your kid is always improving you will find the sky is their oyster.Originally posted by Unregistered View PostComment
