Well they need to update it for the SW division. They list Tucson Soccer Academy. They are no longer. It is now FC Tucson which is a merger between Tucson Soccer Academy and Tanque Verde.

So that makes four merger / names changes? WC to OC Surf, Sereno to RSL-AZ, Scottsdale to Phoenix Rising, and Tucson SA to FC Tucson. Heh.
 
Boys ECNL kept LA Premier and dropped Players Vegas. Both looked like they struggled in most age groups. I wonder why one and not the other. WCFC / OC Surf stayed ECNL because they are not in San Diego?

Did ECNL drop them or did they decide to drop ECNL. Travelling a total of 10 hours per away game for club soccer sounds fun...

Grueling travel without doubt. I'm guessing FC Heat in Vegas is deeper given several years affiliation with ECNL on the girls side? Some Players boys teams have done well in FWR and nationals but I don't know if that market can support depth with quality across many age groups?

Don't know. Now socal teams have to travel to Vegas for 1 game. That is rough too. I think it is the same on the girls side. ECNL has always been a travel league with Socal AZ and NV in the southwest. The maps are not state specific.

The only good part is they tend to have multiple games on a single weekend against 2 teams during the travel. Been there, done that.

Usually 2 games are played over the weekend to make it more cost effective. If you look at past schedules, you will see games were both Saturday and a Sunday with the same team. Even heat does that when they travel to SoCal.

What about the SoCal teams that travel to Vegaaasss!!!! Do the socal teams only play one game against Heat and go home since there is not another Vegas team? or do they play Heat twice in two days?
