ECNL releases ECNL Virginia NSG rosters
RICHMOND, Va. – The ECNL Virginia National Selection Game will feature top players from the U16 and U17 age groups, representing more than 25 clubs. The contest will take place on May 28, 2022, at 6:30 p.m. on Field 6 at Rivercity Sportsplex.
The ECNL National Selection Games are “all-star” matches that bring top players at each regular season ECNL National Event together for representative competition on the first day of the event. Those players competing in the National Selection Game will not suit up for their club on game day to ensure proper rest and preparation. Players were selected for the game by ECNL Player Identification staff through a combination of scouting and recommendations based on performances from the past several months.
