1. We don’t know the coloring order for other clubs
2. It was implied; 2008G red plays in NCSL whereas SYC plays in CCL, CCL2, and NCSL

Okay sure. If your club leadership don’t know the team lineup of neighboring clubs, it says a lot there. Don’t post scores where your top team beats the 3rd or 4th team maybe McLean is a bit more professional and not posting scores for a 12 yo game. Or maybe it’s LB trying to gloat

Well LB hasn’t squashed the rumors that LMVSC is getting removed from CCL Premiership. Heard it’s either no teams in U13 and up or it’s going to be no teams in high school ages (U15 and up).

Lol You haven’t heard anything.

Heard they are asking for PAC to help them out again maybe the same girls teams and possibly a boy team too.

PP here. Colleague of mine is party of admin for FFC (who are leaving CCL). Rumors are very much circulating the leadership circles (within the league), biggest problem for the HS aged teams is too many missing teams; only gets worse next year.

Both; leadership within league is actively discussing options to remove LMVSC. I doubt club leadership has much they can do about this. Problems are too many missing teams and too little competition of the teams that are present. If CCL wanted PAC in their league, they would be in.

PAC only did it as a favor They have no desire to play ccl as a club.

Look, nobody cares about leagues other than the league employees posting on these sites and a few idiotic parents who have untalented kids or don’t know anybody. Knock it off and move on.

Actually, a lot of us care. I'd rather stay primarily in Northern Virginia/Maryland than have to drive to Virginia Beach or Roanoke. It's absurd.

Is it that big of a deal to drive to those locations once every two years? I would also prefer to stay in NOVA/MD as there is enough talent here but it's not the end of the world.

I have three kids in travel sports so, for us, it is a big deal. We all expect and enjoy traveling for tournaments, but traveling to Virginia Beach and Roanoke every other year (and West Virginia, Richmond and Charlottesville on the other years) for a league game when we are within thirty minutes of the same level teams... well, it really feels ridiculous.

No, you care about the commute, not the league, which is a totally reasonable point to raise. My point was that the obsession with leagues is what got us the CCL and ECNL fetishes in the first place and led to all that travel time that many of us do not like.

clubs thought they were too good for NCSL or wanted to be able to market themselves as elite, and new leagues formed. NCLS is now geographically just as big as CCL, which is also large. EDP has even worse travel distances for norther virginia teams. The only league worse the EDP for distance is ECNL, but at least people know what they are getting into when their kid signs up

Time to start our NOVA only Regional league.

I'm betting that if a few clubs joined, they would get players fast. If just the teams in Arlington, Alexandria, Fairfax, Loudon, and Price William formed a league it would have enough clubs to be competitive at multiple levels for every age group
