Are you talking about boys or girls because if you are talking about boys u10 you are wrong. Alexandria Arlington and Mclean are all playing u10 NCSL and Bethesda SYC and Loudoun's top teams are getting a jump on 9v9 by playing in u11. As far as u11 and above none of the top teams have been playing in NCSL for a while.

Top teams from the major clubs have not been in NCSL past u10 in many years. Not sure how this is news unless it is something else.

Also it’s become a trend to play 9v9 by spring of u10 year so many play up in EDP or occasionally in NCSL.

Only the second teams should go to EDP. It will be more competitive than NCSL.

Thats ridiculous. Ncsl has hundreds of teams, losing a handful of teams from mclean and syc will make zero impact. No one cares.

Arlington, Loudoun, GFR, VYS, BRYC, FCV, VSA…. NCSL has plenty of clubs.

NCSL has always been rec level.
