Partially true. The Surf 06 ECNL’s have 1 or 2 ECRL players with them every chance the schedule allows.I think what people are saying (without saying it) is that ECRL at Surf is worthless.
Typically Surf recruits over bringing up from within.
Other clubs do bring up ECRL to play on ECNL when the move is warranted. Also with the new changes allowing NL/RL to play on either team the push is to allow more movement.
