Not for the first time, and not for the last time: those who talk about leagues generally don't like talking about their club, those who talk only club don't like talking about their kid's team or their kid, and those who talk incessantly about their kid's team often cannot talk about their kid. Enough with this nonsense.

Sorry but this isn't true. The leagues are not fairly equal. The best CCL teams are good and would doubtless beat some ECNL teams as would the best NPL/EDP teams beat some CCL teams and the best NCSL teams would beat some NPL/EDP teams. But there no NCSL division 1 teams that would stand a chance of beating most of the ECNL teams, and very few that would beat even the worst ECNL team on a consistent basis.

I would put the leagues in this order:

CCL
NPL<=>EDP
NCSL


So you place the one league without promotion/relegation on top?


I'm placing the leagues in the order I believe reflects the relative strengths of the teams that play in them. That doesn't mean there aren't good teams in the other leagues, nor that every CCL team is better than teams in the other leagues. Nor does it mean that I wouldn't much prefer promotion / relegation leagues for all teams in the area. I'm just basing my opinion off the play I have actually seen.

actually I would say that starting at U13, CCL 1 has stronger teams than NPL.

for girls, NPL is strong at U11 and U12 - before many of those players all move on to ECNL or GAL.

Starting at U13, NPL for girls is roughly equivalent to CCL 1 and the top half of NCSL division 1

He believes NPL to be above the mentioned. However, my DD’s club is making a switch and ditching EDP and NCSL to play exclusively in NPL.

Should I be worried and leave to another club or not? One thing is to make a few extra $ on the side running around with a whistle and another the development of your child.


I'm not sure what league your kid plays in has anything to do with what league your husband should ref more frequently.

Honestly, your husband should not ref the same league that your DD plays in.

There is no DA (period). There was no ODSL in the fall.

EDP and NCSL top divisions have some decent teams.


like CCL has some clubs who don't belong there anymore
