CESA can have both ECNL and R3PLE teams using separate rosters once the non-ECNL team wins qualification through state cup (or maybe proves itself through major tournaments to apply for and obtain a non-automatic berth).

It would show some level of courtesy for CESA to definitively clear the air about whether or not it might try using a percentage of players to hold on to existing R3PLE spots, so that everyone can actually have solid information regarding anticipated costs and leagues upon which to make their decisions.

That trip to Michigan doesn't go away with a separation of rosters. Didn't CESA share the bus ride with Charlotte?

It would be great if Coke would give Check Cola their formula and we could all buy it cheaper. This is a business and all businesses must strive for a competitive edge.

But HH, your daughter is a much better soccer player as a result of all of that. She played tough competition, she got to ride on a bus all day and into the night. She probably did not get enough sleep. She is probably a better person as well.

Remember, they are always looking out for you.

And by the way, what are you thinking leaving CESA and going to Charlotte?

Did they promise you an all day and night bus ride???





It was tough competition.The 5-0 loss was to an ECNL A league team. Cant say the same for the 4-0 loss. It was an ECNL B league team.
As far as leaving. That would be for the training.They made no promises but they did spell everything out before tryouts. They did have a college night back on the 18th. Had the rising u-17s come in for a training session and a scrimmage against the rising u-18s. College coaches were invited. I think 16 or 17 schools showed up.
Your are right about the no sleep. I think they got in the bed about 1:30 am.

Somehow it was connected with Charlotte but i do not know what all was shared. Mine and a couple other CESA girls from the Charlotte area rode the Charlotte bus ubtil they stopped for the night. Rode with CESA the rest of the way the next day.
The Charlotte bus missed its turn off on Saturday and made it to Canada beofore coming to their game.

So Coke loses market share for its secret formula cola to the off-brand cola and introduces Sprite (unfortunately I was around back then to remember) to regain part of its lost share. Depends on how the company looks to ensure long term competitive edge overall.

The ECNL players don't lose access to higher level competition, and a greater number of CESA customers benefit from potential access to higher levels of competition through separation of the rosters. CESA then offers "Coke" and "Sprite". (Later they figure out how to offer "Pizza Hut".)

Delta you are right but i wonder what CESA would get out of letting everyone know.
Not a good selling point to get players to your club if you tell everyone , if you do not make our ECNL team then you can be on the challenge team. You can play in the state league. If you win your state cup we do not have R3PLE east teams so you will be in the state league again next year.
If they would of said before tryouts no R3PLE teams im sure some players would head for Columbia.

Doesn't say much for Charlotte as a transportation hub.

TS, you are talking about big buissness. CESA is that but that edge you are talking about is at the exspense of some kids.
I am leaning towards CESA doing R3PLE.

HH, has anyone said a current Challenge team qualifying for R3PLE would not be allowed to play there? Just not next Fall. And, yes, some of the Challenge players may go to Columbia for tryouts, however if CESA can develop a new roster of players to regain having a team in R3PLE I would guess the players may return.

The difference would be CESA having teams in both leagues based on actually providing player development to get 2 teams worth of players in rather than manipulating rosters to get a fewer number of players in.
