I actually like the Phoenix fields, NO complaints here! Good it's in April and not in June for the ECNL championships in 115 degree weather.I understand college coaches complained about having to deal with the rancid smell and field conditions of oceanside that ECNL moved the San Diego National event to Phoenix. I am so sad that you boot ball SoCal parents will have to travel to AZ at least 3 times this season. Thanks in advance to contributing to our economy.
Where did you see the National schedule?the schedule for the national events are up. No conference schedules yet. Any idea when that will be posted?
I get that. While I enjoyed the 35 min drive to the San Diego event, I was embarrassed by the condition of the Oceanside fields. But, I don't want to head out to Phoenix three times this yearSelfishly I am glad there are 2 events in Phx. Gives my DD a chance to watch the quality of play and get an idea of where she needs to be at if she wants to get on a team when she gets to the U14 age group.

Ecnl listens to its customers and moves the San Diego event to Phoenix. Oceanside is overused and has lots of pot holes and wind. Phoenix has the best venue by far. Plus it is cheaper!!!! San Diego hotels are super expensive.
Awesome...thanks for the information!!!Most of the game times and fields are already posted on ECNL website. Click "member club directory" tab, your club right arrow, click on your team, then "schedule" tab. Only ones not up yet are a few games for Blues, Strikers, and Nevada games for the season.
