U14 Transition into ECNL...

Hey all - Has there been a tread explaining the LH D1 transition from the '00s. Are any of the teams dual rostering players, is that even possible. I hear it was but not sure I believe it.

Also, how many team moved out of D1 and what shift did it create for additional D2 teams to move up into LH D1 this fall?

Sorry, Im sure this was discussed, but can not find any thread to read about it.

Thanks!

5 teams moved out of D1. 5 teams moved up from D2 and D3. No teams were relegated this year. Many are speculating that Meja North & Meja United combined to make a team. LH took 6 new qualifiers this year for the 00 group. No one knows for sure where that 6th spot came from, so the Meja combo is currently the best theory.

Yes. my D1 friends tell me their teams have multiple dual roster players

LOL...Gumby summed up in 6 sentences what has taken 6 months on the 00 board...If he'd added welcome to WFX, Beiber Fever, Sting/Avalanche, FWFC, Rush (Solar Blue), and Gunners, we could have all shut our computers down. I guess there is the "nobody is talking about who they added lost too..."

Thanks Gumby!

Texans - 19 signed.  No '00 LHGCL D1 team to dual roster from. Some DT '01s will be dual rostered later to get experience from time to time.  They dual rostered some '00s for 99 ECNL last year so there is precedence

Defeeters -  18 signed.  No '00 LHGCL D1 team to dual roster from.  It is possible that they may dual roster some '01 for experience.  They dual rostered some "00s for 99 ECNL last year so there is precedence

Solar -  18 signed as ECNL with no expectation of playing LHCGL. One of which might be dual rostered on the Pulp LHGCL team for numbers purposes.  Two '00 D1 LHGCL teams to dual roster from and I suspect the promises that were made to both teams to be met.  It is possible but not likely that an '01 LHGCL D1 player could be dual rostered.  They dual rostered some '00s for 99 ECNL last year so there is precedence    

Sting - 20 signed.  In this case there are several '00 LHGCL D1 teams to dual roster from.  Several of the 20 signed will be rostered for "show" on a LHGCL team in order to make the LHGCL minimum roster requirements and/or to meet the premiere league returning player requirements.  It is confirmed that at least 1 player whose normal home will be her LHGCL team will be dual rostered on the ECNL team.  I wouldn't expect any '01 players to be dual rostered as none were last year and there are more than enough '00 mouths to be fed.

FCD -  No clue...

Thanks for the great info...by the way, I didn't take your last comment as an indictment, but I did laugh when I read it...could be taken a couple of different ways I guess...

FC Dallas has 18 signed (i believe + 1 out with ACL repair).. Have a few dual roster players that will be play LHGCL.

Its not the current plan for any 01's to dual roster at Feet. I'm not sure, but there are some quality players on the D2' 00 team that I think would be given a shot.

Wow! great info all. So who has experience with their DD dual rostering? What is the reality of them playing in a significant number of games from both? i assume you make 100% of the ECNL and what ever is possible in LH.....

I have no experience with dual roster, but I think it would be more like a game to game basis on when they would be called up to play or dress out for ECNL. I could completely wrong with this comment.

Question going off this. Do players have to try out for the ECNL team or is it just all the D1 LH players that automatically make the ECNL team?

I don't think being on the D1 team at U13 is any guarantee of being selected for the U14 ECNL team. There is movement from clubs and teams at U14 for ECNL tryouts and signings.

I've hearing that Dual rostering not only gives the club flexibility to deal with injuries, etc, but also keeps a very good LH player from getting a release and moving to an ECNL team at halfway mark of season.

an ECNL team has 30 roster spots, 18 get to dress for each game... As everyone knows, dual rostered player can play for both the Club's LH and ECNL team, just not both games on same day. However, a LH player who is not dual rostered, can theoretically  go play for ANY Club's ECNL team since they are governed by different associations.

An Example, some might think that LH's '00 Solar CP players are good enough to play for another ECNL team, but not their Solar ECNL team. If they were not "dual rostered" (playing or not), THEORETICALLY, they could leave their LH team and join an ECNL team with a release from LH governing association.

Conversely, an ECNL player who isn't dual rostered in both league, could move to an any LH team if it had the roster spot.  

Again- not sure if that type of movement is possible (or an advisable option-- burning bridges at this age would be crazy), but that is what is floating around.

all quiet on the 00 ECNL front or is it?

looks like Texans have a 3rd keeper on the roster. did they have a keeper injury or did they find a shiny nickle?

is dream team Solar giving any of the solar pulpers/missimos a second look now that the alarm has woke'n them up?

FCD now has 27 on the list. only room for 3 more.

Feet seems confortable with what they have.

Sting - no wins in Oct nor Nov. that's gotta sting. lots of other 00's in club. anyone buelar?

how can the nutty parents that abandon ship during the fall make the correct move when no one is talking. We all know what is said here is true.

So what do we think at the half way point for the 00's?
