[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=FPYCparent](I realize the original topic focused on U9/U10 teams, so please forgive me for this NCSL U11 girls-centric post.  My DD's U11 team plays in another NCSL division, so I have an interest in this age group as a whole.)

If YouthSoccerRankings are worth anything, the McLean 2008/U11 Green girls team is definitely the top squad in NCSL for the age group.  I think these YSR pages are for the same McLean team (Green):

https://youthsoccerrankings.us/team.html?teamId=2710995

During the fall NCSL season, McLean Green won all nine games, with 54 goals for and 4 goals against.

In this NCSL age group, there were six other girls teams (out of a total of 35) that allowed fewer than 10 goals in the 8- or 9-game season.  Only one of those teams was already in the same division with McLean Green.

In hindsight, it appears that "only" four other teams in the top 10-team division truly belonged (per YSR).  If NCSL were to promote/relegate teams for the spring in this age group, perhaps McLean Green would face a higher, more consistent level of competition across the entire season in a 10-team division.  But, based on the numbers as they are, McLean should come out on top, as they are one YSR point better than all other teams (26.09/26.67 vs. second-highest 24.78 as of early January).[/quote]

One of the problems of putting your top teams in NCSL is the lack of divisions.  Then at U13, they move those teams into Girls ECNL where they are unprepared.[/quote]

NP.  And I'm not trying to be snarky, so please don't take this the wrong way, but why would a team not be prepared if they are being coached properly?  Do games really improve a player/team or is it the training?  I would think its the training more than the competition.[/quote]
