Hence why tracking some sort of power list at this age is comedy at best; offensive at worst.
Kids are all over the map dedication, development-wise. Yet, you fools are trying to put a ranking on them, when most of the kids are more worried about if they are going to stay up late enough to watch iCarly...
ARE YOU EFFING KIDDING? These kids are 10. Lighten up and take them out for ice cream!
I think it's funny that you troll the thread to explain all the things a 10 year old should do. Do you want parents of 2007 players to talk about other age groups that aren't relevant to them? I am sure talking about 2003 players and clubs is much more ethical espacially on a site like this that is all negative anyway.
Let's all start much more productive threads like bashing every club that's not yours.

It's a legit question. These things are important at these pre-pubescent ages.
We are trying to develop a Nation of soccer players, and you fools are actually ranking these kids with the knowledge 50% of them will drop out completely within 4 years; 75% of them won't even play through HS.
Some of these kids can play. And yes some will quit but a few of the best now will stay the best as they get older. Looking at the older groups the standouts back at u10 are still standouts.

Not with our club. It's almost completely flipped.

Get a life.
Every age group has rankings but not everyone on the thread is ranking. It's open to whatever people want to talk about. Of course tools like you troll every thread to make yourself feel better. The drop our rate starts a lot younger than U11.

Too young to be ranking. As they get to where there are some actual, real, tactics involved feel free.
It's bewildering how someone could actually look at another team of 10-year olds and rank them.

Forget about rankings what teams should move up/down for the Spring? Nefc WC and SS should probably drop as well as SOL Pre Elite and GPS. Looks like Seacoast, Aztecs, Valeo, FC Boston And NEFC Central United could move up. Do you think any of that will happen.

But, not even the point. They are TEN.
Exactly. Anyone who thinks they can ID top players at 10, girls or boys, has no idea what puberty can and does do to players. There has been plenty of research that shows zero correlation between being ID'ed at a young age for high level play in a sport and success at higher levels later on.
Most girls hit puberty and then high school, put on weight, grow breasts, start dating boys (the dreaded 3 B's that ruin girls athletes) and their athleticism goes to crap. Then there are the ones that don't grow and end up 5'0", with lots of skill, but no size/strength/speed and gets crushed when playing full grown 5'6+ athletes. Lastly are the playes who come out of nowhere because they have grit and work ethic and maybe a late growth spurt. You parents have zero clue what level your kids will be at if they are even playing soccer in 5 years.
Relegate the bottom three and add the top two from each of the other premiership divisions. Unfortunately it probably won’t happen that way as the clubs dictate where the teams end up. Probably get more NEFC & GPS teams that don’t belong.
