This x100!
This is not true for NL. Not in the slightest.

I honestly disagree with this. The top teams in A are just at another level and very few, if any, kids that currently play for any of these clubs would make those teams. So even if you somehow were able to take the best girls from all of these teams and form one super team, that team would still not be able to compete with Hero’s Green or M&D. I am not sure what is going on with the BLC 27’s, but they are certainly the exception.
That's fine to disagree but have you watched or seen the talent on the programs mentioned? Probably not based on some of the comments. The top girls on those programs would definitely make the top MD programs. Would some not be the #1 player? Maybe not, but the top talent on NL and Stars would certainly have no issues after watching them all first hand. The 2028 NL middles are strong and the strength of that team.
Agree with that PP, the BLC teams are not competitive and would make NL and Stars and MCE even better instead of what is currently going on.
I think you need to check some of those scores from fall tournaments, I mean the NL 27 team lost to a top MD 28 team.
There's a huge back in B leagues vs A Leagues. Are there a few that could make an A club team? Yeah. But not many. You may have 1-2 kids in the DMV make a Hero's Green or M&D, and I would venture all of them are coming from another A club team.

As a NL parent, it is nice to read about the other NL teams’ improvements and to see it on my daughter’s team, but what is also very important and I fear gets overshadowed is that the girls seem to be having a blast playing on this team and enjoy their coaches. Hopefully NL can keep the girls together and add more talent and have a stronger girls program in HS.

NL 27s, 28s and 29s all finished first in NGLL B.
The top 4 teams in the B division, should play the bottom 4 in the A division for playoffs instead of playing eachother again. That would give them a better litmus test of where they belong next season
They should have relegation like in european soccer.
Otherwise, probably should just create 3 divisions and make A smaller.

MC Elite 2025’s had COVID issues and had to forfeit both games. Forfeit score is an automatic 1-10 loss for both games.
Yeah, I knew there was a forfeit... Just curious as to why. Sucks to end the season on that note.
