The problem with you idea and it is a good idea is that all the leagues are club based and not team based. This is what the problem is with these private leagues and promotion and relegation. You are not going to have strong teams at every age group in the leagues. They counted on the best players going to these clubs to play the best soccer at a one stop shop for college and NT coaches. The problem is that parents did not buy into switching to these clubs like the league and clubs hoped. Also clubs that are not in these leagues bash them becasue they don't want to lose the players on their teams. Rather than looking at the big picture everybody looks at their own wallet size picture.

It is one of the things MAPLE had right. Unfortunately, it is more difficult to make a sales pitch to parents when your top team is in the third division. The cream would rise and the pretenders would fall. As Bill Parcells said, "you are what your record says you are"

Are you really that dumb. They already are in the same league (NPL) The NYNPL is on the same level as the NENPL and all the other NPL leagues in the country. The will all go and play in an NPL play-off at the end of the year. I would love to see the team from the NENPL beat the NYNPL just to prove a point. You parents believe everything your club tells you. Just becasue your club tells you something does not make it true.

This system would still eliminate the stand alone team on a smaller club. That team would have to pursue R1 as an avenue to play at a higher level.

Originally posted by Unregistered View PostNot only that, but why would other clubs' top teams play second teams? As good as you think ECNL second teams are, most are not on the same level as the NY NPL teams. Maybe Stars being the exception.
It would take one season to put all of this to bed.

This format is not based on the best teams. It is based on the best clubs. You need to stop arguing team relegation and promotion but club relegation and promotion. This is what you people do not understand. What is good for your age group is not good for others.

I actually think several teams in the NENPL (PDA, Stars and CFC) could beat NEFC Elite NPL if things went their way.

US Club Soccer is the governing body of the ECNL, NYNPL and the NPL.
The ECNL and the NPL have a relationship already as the NPL are the second sides of the ECNL clubs. The NYNPL teams are made up of large, well run clubs.
Combine the three leagues. Make them into divisions and have promotion/relegation on an annual basis. It would reduce travel, costs and provide a more compeitive local environment that would increase development of our local players. Save money for destination tournaments and cant miss showcases.

Originally posted by Unregistered View PostSome of the details are inappropriate behavior with both players and parents. Other issues were he sits in a beach chair all through practice and on the sidelines during games and shouts instructions to his players. He fools around at practice more than he runs a practice. He's famous for verbally abusing refs during games. The fact that he's at his 3rd club only staying at each a few years before either being fired or asked to leave should say alot too. Overall he is very immature and loses alot of kids from his teams every year.
