The ECNL Boys is excited to announce the rosters for the ECNL Florida National Selection Game, powered by Beyond Pulse. The ECNL Florida National Selection Game will feature top players from the U17 and U18/19 age groups, representing more than 30 clubs. The contest will take place on January 22, 2022 at 6:00 p.m. in the Stadium at Seminole Soccer Complex. 

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. They are one component of the ECNL National Selection Program, which encompasses all player identification and development programs within the league. 

“The National Selection Game has been a huge success for ECNL Boys and we are extremely excited to bring it to ECNL Florida,” said Jason Kutney, ECNL Boys Commissioner. “Whether it is the packed stadium of peers, or the incredible volume of support, these games are providing some of the most exciting atmospheres in youth soccer. I’m excited to see what Florida has in store for us!”

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.

As part of the league’s partnership with Hudl, each ECNL National Selection Game is also broken down by Wyscout, the world’s leading game analysis company, with technical reports shared on the ECNL’s Player ID webpage, once available.
