CHULA VISTA, Calif. – Four Michigan players have been selected to the ECNL-Girls Conference Cup which will be held next month.
The annual event, showcasing several of the top players nationwide through the ECNL-Girls, will take place August 5-9 at the prestigious Chula Vista Elite Athlete Training Center in Chula Vista, California.
Three Michigan players come from the Michigan Hawks club system, Micayla Johnson, Nina Laba and Elizabeth Phillips, while Rachael Wright hails from Midwest United FC system on Michigan’s west side.
The ECNL Conference Cup is another opportunity for top players within the ECNL Selection Program to showcase their games. There are 120 of the top rising U16-U18 girls players from across the country who will be placed into eight different teams for a mini-game competition played over the course of three days. Each team will combine players from different ECNL Girls Conferences, geographically linked to represent different areas of the country. The top teams will meet in the championship game on Aug. 9 to determine the Conference Cup Champion.
Players were selected for the Conference Cup by ECNL-Girls Player Identification Staff through a combination of scouting and recommendations based on performances over the past several months, including performances in National Selection Games throughout ECNL National Events during the 2023-24 campaign.
