[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]They are in the Mid Atlantic Academy League.  Got some real good teams and some pretty average teams in it.[/quote]

Just 6 teams total, that's not really a league. [/quote]

[b]9 teams total, not 6.[/b]  Not sure where you got your info from.  League, smeague.  Kids getting ready for their shot at making a MLS Next team in 2026, tougher the games the better.[/quote]

Last year it was definitely just six clubs. They had two divisions and each club had a top team and second team. A few of those clubs are showing up in EDP brackets this year. Maybe NAL always takes down their website between season and just leaves a broken link page up for a few weeks, but that’s a weird way to do it. Overall the whole thing looks like it has been put together with little planning or cohesion and it sure doesn’t look like some elevated development environment. [/quote]

Two of the best 2014’s in the DMV, not on my kids club, will be in NAL.

The top two ranked 2014’s clubs in the country are Celtic and Coppermine and you will see over the next 3-5 years those boys get individually passed by my kid and the others who don’t expect Ritz Carlton level service from this system and willing to simply play in a parking lot if needed against the best technical players possible, not the best teams who have been arranged to win via tactical and physical superiority which is not the aim at this age.

No, the best players on those teams will go to an MLSNext team and bump other kids (maybe yours) from their perch.

DS is in MLSNext now but have played against kids who he recognizes from his early playing days in a non-MLSNext club.
