[quote=Anonymous]For next years 6th (2025s), 7th (2024s), and 8th (2023s) teams, Madlax Cap 2023 is less good than the typical Madlax team (Next Level, Club Blue, and BLC are all better -- VLC 2023 about the same as Madlax 2023), Madlax 2024 is good (though probably BLC is at least as good or better, VLC is way weaker), Madlax 2025 is on about the same level with both Next Level and BLC.

This all could shift next year depending on player movement.  (Have kids on a couple 2023-2025 teams so have developed a lot of random knowledge of this age group of which is totally useless except for questions like this).

Not a Madlax family, but the invective against the Madlax owner, coaches, players, and parents are all somewhat overstated in my experience.  They run a quality, but not perfect program.  The owner is very passionate in good and bad ways, but he's mostly focused on the elementary age teams these days where his kids play.  Madlax is a little more expensive, but all the main clubs are expensive.  If they are close to your house and your kid is good enough to start for their top team (capital), it totally makes sense.  Also Madlax probably have the best recruiting track record in the area, so if your kid is a top level star, also makes a lot of sense.

If you are willing to drive for practices to lower MoCo, BLC (which becomes DC Express for the upper middle and high school teams) and Next Level are similar options.  NL is probably the most parent friendly of the local teams.

Blackwolf also becomes an option in high school, but they don't field middle school teams.  Don't have any personal experience with them yet.
