[quote=Anonymous][quote=RantingSoccerDad][quote=Anonymous][quote=RantingSoccerDad][quote=Anonymous][quote=RantingSoccerDad][quote=Anonymous][quote=RantingSoccerDad]Their U13 boys team is in EDP's top division -- basically, the equivalent of the old Region I leagues.

My goodness. How were they selected? I couldn't find enough results at youthsoccerrankings.us (where, I feel I need to state for the reading-impaired, the interesting part is the results database, not the ranking itself) to get any info.[/quote]

Isn't that SDOR and not FCBescola NOVA?[/quote]

I saw FCB separate from SDor.

But now that I look again, I don't see FCB at U13. At all. Not in ANY EDP division. I don't see them at U11, U12 or U14, either.

Not sure whether they were removed or whether I've lost my mind. (I suppose both would be technically possible.)

I'd check in with the EDP staff -- I spoke with them for a story a couple of months ago -- but I think that'd be overkill. Can anyone confirm where they're actually playing?[/quote]

Teams U13 and younger will not compete in EDP until the spring. [/quote]

Why are they listed in the fall brackets? (The older ones aren't -- perhaps because they're sitting out HS season?)[/quote]

EDP has not posted brackets for over U16 and up.  My guess is that the league is probably still sorting out the divisions for the older age groups.  For younger age groups, FCB teams are listed in U14 and U15 brackets for boys (two for each age group).  Their U11 though U13 teams will start EDP in the Spring.   The youngest teams will continue to play internal competitions, tournaments and friendly games.

Oh, the *FCB* U11-U13 teams won't start EDP play until the spring. Not the league as a whole. That makes sense.

I do think high school play will take a large chunk out of EDP's fall brackets for U16 on up. Virginia is the outlier in playing a spring season.

Incidentally, since someone raised a question on NCSL divisions, I did a quick analysis and highlighted the weird ones ...

There’s a few questionable decisions in the older age groups in NCSL[/quote]
