Well that formatting came out horribly. Forget that. : )

lol....oh well. Everyone could share what their club's color rank means. That could be simplest. FPYC (NCSL) only has two teams: Blue = A. Gold = B.

If you look at the raw text when you're quoting, it works. Here's what I see, along with a few quirks I know ...

FPYC: Blue, Gold
HERN: Black, Red, White
REST: Blue, White, Yellow, Green
GRFL: Blue, White, Gold (sometimes with some other names thrown in, like Lazio or Estudiantes)
LOUD: Red, Black, White, Silver (I also see Gray and Green in ODSL)
MCLN: Green, White, Gold, Silver, White
VYS: Red, Black, White (also Silver in ODSL. They've had Gold in the past, but that's not likely to happen again soon. And top girls teams now called "Phoenix"
CYA: Purple, Gold, Silver, Black (also White)
NVSC: Blue, White
PAC: Navy, White (then Gold and Silver in ODSL. Also, girls teams are starting to go by Gold)
STER: Orange, White
LMVSC: Red, White, Blue
ARL: Red, White, Blue, Black, Silver, Gold
PWSI: Red, White (that can't be all)
POT: Blue, White, Black
SYA: Red (also Black)
VSA: Blue, Gold, White
BRYC: Elite, Blue, White (note: most ODSL teams are run out of separate rec department)
GSC: Red, White
BETH: Blue, Green (gets very confusing when they move up to DA, EDP, etc.)
DCST: Blue, White, Red
WALD: Orange
SMS: Gold, Red

I'll add:

ALEX: Red, White, Blue, Black, Silver

I don't know FRED, FCV, SYC or TAFC. I also get Barca's "Elite" and "Premier" confused. SAC has Showcase Blue, Blue, White, and the occasional Showcase White.

At older age groups, you can have a lot of confusing names because an entire team may jump from one club to another but maintain its old nickname.

FCV: ECNL>Elite>Premier

What is their U11 boys FCVA United Premier 06B? Do they have their A team in NPL and B team in NCSL?

NPL allows both A and B teams. But if not enough clubs put in their B teams then those B teams need to play in another league. That is more of a moving target.

NPL allows B-teams? Since when? Which teams in the current season of VPL are B-teams?

Looks like the boys oldest age group does

Affiliated but separate is a good way to describe it. South has the same Blue > Green tiering. Coaches and training and completely separate. Uniforms are the same. South only fields teams at a couple of age groups right now.

Probably depends on the age group at this point. They had to cancel plans to field teams in 1-2 age groups this year when a coach left for Orlando and some players backed away. Other age group have one team in EDP. U11 has two teams in NCSL.

Their problem is they train all the way out in Great Falls.

If they had a NoVA location --I think they'd do better getting players. Also- because there is a monopoly in one area without a lot of other choices.

We loved the coach, training but it would have taken us 70 min each way in rush hour traffic from our NoVA location.

blue and red.
White plays in WAGS for girls and I think NCSL for boys. The boys side also has a 4th team (black).

Thanks for the heads-up.
