You already have clubs struggling to make hg and ad rosters so yes adding anyone at this point (even SoCal elite…maybe riverside excepted) would water down competition. Which Albion…riverside might be the only logical pick.At great park today a parent was talking about Albion and Laguna United both getting HG next year. When is this decided ? Is it for all age groups if it happens? Won’t this water down the mls next teams with so many clubs in SoCal having a HG and AD team at each age group?
Per the MLSN site, it is decided at the end of Jan, and communicated sometime in Feb. No idea how they do age group selection, but I'd guess it would be considered per individual team (not all clubs have strong teams at all ages).At great park today a parent was talking about Albion and Laguna United both getting HG next year.

They got EA2Last year around this time I heard a rumor from AYSO United parents they are getting EA. A year later AYSO United is no more. Spreading rumors before tryouts could be a tactic to retain players.
