As did their 29s.

Only their 25s and 26s played in A. 27s and 29s played B and they did not field a 28 or 30 team.

Congrats to the 28 NL team, they had a good season. NL seems to be the club to go to for the MC girls.


I’m not a fan of MC, but their midnight teams play in the A bracket and could easily win in the B bracket as well. Next level is playing only in B bracket, so not a fair comparison.

Great run for the BLC 2026 team. They have really improved. Happy for all of the NL teams as well.

The 26 team has come on strong in the last weeks. Good for them.

Unfortunately both teams lost.

Nice to see that Next Level has 3 teams competing in the finals of the ‘27, ‘28 and ‘29 B divisions. This will hopefully attract some new talent this summer.

Having watched Crush, they are good, but mainly driven by the 2 middies. Having also played NL, I think they would compete just fine in the A bracket, but hard to say if they'd go 4-4 or 5-3 etc (didn't watch every game etc). Their middies are also very strong with some other players as well. The bottom 6 in the A division for 28 aren't any better than the top 5 in the B division imo.

The bottom 5 from A (excluding NEMS) and the top 5 from B would actually be a very fun and competitive league. I hope NGLL and the clubs are able to see the light and make this happen next year.

Typical game no more than 15 or 16 player until garbage time. Even with a normal sized roster, there would be attrition. Lucky lots of blowouts for them. This was a problem for them before this year.

Do what most clubs do, cut until you get between 18-22 kids.

I guess they would rather have the 23-26 kids on their bench then on the field against them.

Its easy to get sold on the "M&D" name if your kid makes it.

That being said, M&D Black is in the NGLL playoffs across the board, that is impressive.
