Jack Harrison would raise his hand to disagree. (Not a HG but same difference as a GenAdidas)
NYCFC Academy - General Discussion
- Thread starter NYCFC_Dan
- Start date
So players either get tapped-up to the 1st team at 19, or the club waves adios?
That was my first reaction.
Or get loaned out to a hodge podge of USL teams
Which is why I think this would hurt us in the long run.
It’s a great avenue to play your kids. It isn’t an avenue to keep your kids.
But it’s enough of an excuse to say, “hey, we don’t need a usl team. Our best kids are playing U19”
Another issue is that they're still playing against kids.
Playing against older players who are actually playing for something and who are particularly motivated to beat the newjacks seems like a much better preparation for open age football than another year in the nursery.
Not to be a Pep Stan, but:

i think its a trash idea. you have USSDA already no need to have another U19 league. AND you have many teams with "2" teams already there is no need for this.
disbanded by who? and why? what existed before USSDA? i really dont know
MLS Academies would withdraw from the USSF DA U18/19 league but the league would still be running with all other non-MLS Academies.
Definitely the Keeper because we stock extra keepers on the roster like an attention deficit disorder hoarder.
so they play against international teams in the GA cup?
