          Ecnl2 will he the top competitive level? Why would they have the top teams compete in a league named 2?

            Stars will have a west team and an east team in ECNL2. More patches=more happy parents.

                This actually makes sense since we have been hearing chatter about changes

                  For the same reason why people pay top dollar to be on a 2nd team...

                    It makes no sense at all. There is only one reason to rebrand npl to a shiny new bad name and that would be to try to extract more money from families. We have seen this movie many times now and it is getting dull.

                        It makes all the sense (and dollars) for the Club. Movie might be getting dull, but tickets are still selling and prices don't go down.

                          Not sure. The last Blockbuster launch struggled a bit to make ticket sales in my neck of the winds.

                            I have no idea if this is true or not. Could easily be a troll.
                            If it were to happen here is why it COULD be good and bad.

                            GOOD:
                            Consolidate NPLs into ECNL2 - SSS, GPS, Scorps, Stars, NEFC, FCUSA
                            Decrease league travel with regional brackets e.g. NE NPL North, NE NPL South

                            Larger Showcases with ECNL 1 and ECNL 2 divisions.
                            Increased Exposure - Top NPL Players are now at same showcases as ECNL2
                            One Stop Shop for college coaches to target their level, and peek up/down

                            Less Travel for Showcases
                            Bigger events would allow for Regional Showcases culminating in a bigger ECNL Finals
                            Majority of players go to college in their Region (East, West, Central)

                            Here is why it is bad
                            East - West teams in both ECNL and ECNL2, would extend ECNL brand to club's 4th team.
                            Parents of ECNL2 West claim their kid plays ECNL twisting parents of kid who plays ECNL East

                            Pros: Less travel, better exposure, one-stop shop, and inclusion of more clubs..
                            Cons: "undeserving" Parents get to falsely brag.

                            I vote YES, bring on ECNL2

                              They should allow top ECNL2 teams (heard in CT forum i think i twill be called ECRL for Regional) to play in ECNL showcase .... plenty of of top NPL teams now that can punish plenty of ECNL teams. I guess it doesn't matter what you call it though most of the NPL counterparts of ECNL clubs now are currently not very good ..... rebrand it as you will but dont expect quality to change much .... everyone wants to be on an A team, even if it means going to smaller clubs (which, quite honestly, are often better than those B teams with patches on their sleeves).
