ECNL Announces Conference Cup Competition
The ECNL has announced that it will hold a new all-star mini-game competition, the Conference Cup for its boys and girls leagues.
ECNL Boys will host its first competition from July 31-August 4, at the Chula Vista Elite Athlete Training Center in California. The same venue will host the girls edition on August 7-11.
Every team will play five mini-games, with the top two teams meeting in the ECNL Conference Cup Championship, with rosters built from the top players in each conference.
The ECNL Conference Cup will be replacing the former ECNL National Training Camp, as the league continues to evolve programming to provide new and unique experiences for the nation’s top players. There is no cost for players to attend the ECNL Conference Cup – upon arrival, the league covers all food, accommodation, ground transportation, staffing, and all other costs.
The conferences that comprise the six teams are listed below for the boys competition.
Team 1: Northeast/Mid-Atlantic
