MLS NEXT adds five more clubs ahead of 2021-2022 season

Some of the games have moved from non divisional to SoCal. Hoping times go in soon.I would guess since they're categorized as non-divisional games and half the games are cross division that there will be no standings, but maybe scores reported for U15 and above as they're currently doing.
I'm hearing rumblings from a couple SoCal ECNL clubs that they're already regretting their decision to join ECNL due to the level of competition they've experienced so far. Rumor is they're considering a move to MLS. We shall see, but I wouldn't be surprised to see some movement for the 21-22 season. Seems premature to me but that's youth soccer.MLS NEXT adds five more clubs ahead of 2021-2022 season | MLSSoccer.com

All depends on how many teams are good from YOUR club. Just because you have a stacked "year" club team , it doesn't mean the other "year" club teams can make that move.I'm hearing rumblings from a couple SoCal ECNL clubs that they're already regretting their decision to join ECNL due to the level of competition they've experienced so far.

very true , time will tell you'll have the top 3 teams in both ECNL and MLS as always , would be cool to have a crossover competition every 6 months between the twoWell compared to DA, Ecxx definitely is not on that same level from.what I've seen so far. Middle to not even playoff Former DA clubs are all if sudden on top in ECNL.
With that I don't see that many moving, maybe a few will do both ECxx and MLS but who knows time will tell.
Which age group?I'm hearing rumblings from a couple SoCal ECNL clubs that they're already regretting their decision to join ECNL due to the level of competition they've experienced so far.

On top after about two games?Well compared to DA, Ecxx definitely is not on that same level from.what I've seen so far. Middle to not even playoff Former DA clubs are all if sudden on top in ECNL.

On top after about two games?
Seems early to call it, but I know everyone wants their kids team to be part of MLS, just human nature. I’m guilty of it too.
Well I'm mostly hearing it from my friends' 08 age groups, who are claiming that the two clubs have beaten their opponents a combined 44-2. Like a previous poster said you have to look at the performance club wide vs at one age group. Part of the problem with ECNL is there were Clubs that joined ECNL during DA, since they couldn't get into DA. Those clubs are still there which creates a wide disparity between former DA clubs. I thought maybe that these non-DA ECNL teams might get a bump in interest from better players since ECNL for boys is now one of the top leagues. However, I've not seen that happen to date.Which age group?
I agree, seems premature.
How many games have they played against ECNL teams to be able to make this kind of statement? Probably just regretting jumping to ECNL too quickly and feeling like they’re missing out on the MLS tag.

The MLS League is definitely stronger than ECNL. You have like 4 MLS teamsvery true , time will tell you'll have the top 3 teams in both ECNL and MLS as always , would be cool to have a crossover competition every 6 months between the two
The MLS next is definitely a stronger group of teams. You could argue all you want, but that’s reality. Don’t forget that most teams are free or very inexpensiveThey have been playing many months in scrimmages, tournaments, and 4 or more league games. I have video access since I work in the field so yeah from what I seen so far.

I believe EA is a "feeder" to MLSNext. Similar principles of play, but HS is allowed. Good for kids who may bloom later.Can someone explain to me exactly what EA is and how it fits in with MLS next? I’ve read a little bit about it and is still not clear to me? Thanks in advance.
Depends on the age group. The top MLS teams would be better than the ECNL at all age groups... however, pull out LAG and LAFC and it really depends on the age group. Pats, FCGS, SD Surf, Arsenal are better in some age groups than some LA Surf, Santa Barbara, Nomads, Albion, Murrieta.
It even varies in the club. To make my point: Yesterday, LAFC played LA Surf. LA Surf's 06 team is a very good team and won 1-0. Organized and several very talented players. That was not an anomaly but I also didn't see the same competitiveness across the age groups. Other age groups had double digit losses to LAFC.
The only way I know of is to ask your coach.Does anyone know if there is any easy way to see the scores for the U13 and U14 MLS Next games?
