really people...are you honestly talking about 10 and 11 years old and assessing who the "top" teams are...please tell me this isn't real. Are they even playing 9v9 yet ?...if not, is it perhaps their first year on a bigger field ? Can you seriously have this sort of dialogue. Yeah I get that a lot of folks have daughters playing but c'mon

This thread is one example of why most of these 2007 kids won't be playing at 13 years old. Talking about "top" U11 teams is insane.

"Talking about "top" U11 teams is insane."
But the 95,000+ views of the thread ranking the top U13 teams is completely rational. Thanks for that analysis.

Originally posted by Unregistered View PostThe issue is not that there might be threads about the younger age groups...but the fact that there might be a dialogue about "top teams"....a "top team" at the U10/11 level is pretty meaningless. If you were talking about what a great development or teaching job the coach was doing for a particular team at that age group and what program does that best, then that might be pretty interesting and good to know.

I understand teams change and transition new players in and out, wondering if the foundation of strong teams correlates to success 3-4 years down the road. Not sure it matters, everyone is just playing for a trophy, I just don't minimize "success" at younger ages.
None of the teams we competed at at U10 and U11 are the same as we are competing at now, and it's only U13.
Large organizations start to pool players. Other programs that are light in the younger ages grow. Kids quit. Really, not much is the same from who played against, our own team included, in those 3 years.
