Quick answers
How many ECNL clubs are in Colorado?
5 in ECNL Girls and 6 in ECNL Boys, plus 13 places in the ECNL Regional League (girls and boys together). A club with both a girls’ and a boys’ side counts once in each.
How many MLS NEXT clubs are in Colorado?
2 in MLS NEXT’s top tier, and 6 in the MLS NEXT Academy Division.
Does Colorado have Girls Academy clubs?
Yes: 2 in the Girls Academy and 7 in GA Aspire.
Does my player need to be at one of these clubs to play in college?
No. What a national league gives a player is regular games against strong teams and showcase events that college coaches attend. A coach still recruits the player, not the badge, and a player at any club can email a coach, send video and go to that school’s ID camp.
Where do these lists come from?
From each league’s own published club directory, read and dated October 5, 2026. The league’s site is the authority; if a club has moved since, this page is behind.
