When accepting your child to ECRL, please do your research. NWE tells players at U11, 12, 13, and 14 that they have made their RL team. ECRL does not start until you are U15. When it does start, it's three weekends of the year, and you still play in OYSA. Does this not tell you everything about the club that you are joining? The ECRL on boys and girls is a money maker for ECNL. Pre-ECRL at U11 is a long wait before you get what is being sold. Parents get star-struck by a few letters and a cool logo. When will they all learn?

One of many. The latest for sure, but sort of a replay. The cons don’t change, just the ‘clients’Originally posted by Guest View Post -
Thanks for the PSA.Comment

My nephew was selected and played for Sporting ECNL B10 in Heartland, but his dad wanted him to play baseball, so his son was moved into ECRL. It works for their family.Originally posted by Guest View Post
When you say ECRL doesn't start until U15, do you mean for the Northwest, with new league for Oregon teams?Comment

ECRL for girls is ONLY u15, u16,u17,u19Originally posted by Guest View Post
The girls u15-u17 ECRL league is 2 weekends in August. No college coaches. All B teams. Nothing special. We paid the price last year. Won't make that mistake again. We played OYSA and were just good enough at the Gold level. The ECRL in the name meant absolutely nothing in terms of quality of coaching, competition, or college exposure. All sales for the girls side. Our club didn't have boys ECNL so I can't speak to that.

Parents are so stupid. Why wouldn't they do their research? Telling other clueless parents that your child plays RL sounds a lot better than playing club. Even though they are the same thing. You are buying false hopes for your children. Shame on you!Originally posted by Guest View PostComment

NWE has no morals. Shame on any parent that allows their child to play at this club. Terrible coaches that have no morals. It makes things worse when coaches that don't win have no morals, because you cannot say, "They are all about winning."Comment

Agreed! Selling their RL program as this super league is shameful. Parents, do your research!Originally posted by Guest View PostComment

ECRL is like the old Northwest Champions league - nothing specialComment

It is nothing like it! At least in the NW CL, there was an outcome. ECRLs outcome is to make money for the top people in ECNL. Northwest Elite is selling this BS to cover their huge salaries. Parents love telling others, "My daughter made the RL team." IT MEANS NOTHING! Parents are being lied to about these programs. OYSA needs to step in and put a stop to this BS. They need to confront ECNL and let them know what NWE are doing.Originally posted by Guest View PostComment

LoL. OYSA has no jurisdiction over ECNL, which is part of US Club soccer, an organization formed because all manner of grifters and sharks [s] didn't like the ethics rules of USYS[/s] thought that USYS didn't serve the "elite player" well.Originally posted by Guest View Post
ECNL exists, like OPL and lots of other things, so corrupt coaches could ignore OYSA.Comment

NWE are now telling Boys they have made their RL team when thy don't even have it. If you are a parent and you have your child playing here, you need to lookin the mirror.Originally posted by Guest View PostComment

Can I ask why you initially made the choice for your daughter to play for a club that offered ECRL? Was it the initial year for the league here? Were you told that the girls would be showcasing for scouts?Originally posted by Guest View Post

NWE might be talking about the UYSA National League NW Conference ? Used to be called regional leagueComment

Because they like telling their friends their daughter plays ECRL. In their tiny brains, it means something. ECRL is the biggest scam and only the stupid helicopter parents buy into it.Originally posted by Guest View PostComment
