Whoever this Blackwatch booster is, I credit you for caring about your girls and team . . . but this is a bit over the top. Have the Blackwatch girls played Fuller, Stars, Western United or the Scorps? For that matter have you played Explosion or Puma? The jump into this flight from the flights below is a big one and, until you have a, say, .500 record against these teams you can't rightfully say Blackwatch has been hard done by the placements.
U12s
Currently the strongest overall team is the Stars at U12. Stars have great depth and are well coached and well organized.
Western has the most dynamic team and pose significant problems for any team they play. Their top 11-12 are very good, but they can be inconsistant as a team. They arent very deep. They may have the potential of picking up players from Berkshire and Pioneers as they fall apart.
Fuller can beat any MA team on any given day because they are very athletic. They do leave a feeling similar to the stereotypical Fuller teams but they show signs of trying to get away from ultra direct soccer. Fuller also defends hard and has a strong keeper.
Scorpions are pretty decent but are not as strong as any of the three teams above.

Blackwatch is a dark horse....
Don't count Puma out, they had a great run at last years tournament and lost by a single goal to the eventual winners.

They have played Western a couple of times and won both games.
divisions dont' normally sort themselves out until U13 because of all the team shuffling. U12 girls is pretty crazy right now after those first four or five teams who set themselves apart as stronger at this point.
Blackwatch started in MASC at U11 and didn't join MAPLE until last fall, so they started in the bottom color. They killed everyone, it is highly unlikely that Kathy will move them all the way to Green, but not completely out of the realm of possibility. There will probably be five groups. Kathy uses her judgment, so Blackwatch could be in green, but the problem is that some teams might complain to her that they didn't earn the big jump. Because of that, there is no way she could move them all they way to Blue. Blackwatch is very good, and will more than likely qualify for MAPLE D1 as a result of this season and the Paul Irwin Cup. Because of their low standing, they will probably not make it to final and will probably lose to a Stars or Western United in one of the knockout stages. They do have one of the best players in the age group, and a good supporting cast.
Berkshire is a good team, they lost one goal games v Scorpions, Western, and Fuller Hamlets.
Because of all the shuffling that happened in the groups after last season, there are a lot of teams that are on the same level as Vipers, Eagles, and Inter, including Vikings, North Shore, Greater Boston from the other lower group, and Blackwatch and Rays from the lowest group.
Things won't make any sense until after the spring when teams are divisionalized. There could be quite the shakeup.
Blackwatch was put in the Orange Division ????? They will kill everyone again ?????
What difference does it make, they are going to win it all so its just pre season practice for this loaded team.
Please explain ?
The u12 girls Blackwatch team is better than any team in Blue, they have played most teams in blue and beaten them, so I'm just telling you how it is.
Who have they beaten who was in Blue/Fall ?[/quote:3gk171j3]
agreed puma is pretty decent but do you just write stuff down or do you actually use facts?
puma u12 has played western u12 two times ever in MAPLE.
puma has won 2-0. They tied 1-1.
this is the inconsistency the person was probably eluding too as western has played well against great teams (PDA, STARS, FC BUCKS) but then loses to puma who is not in the same talent bracket as the three named above....probably due to the fact that its u12 soccer but also could be a match up type thing. seeing as how stars beat puma 7-0 this past fall.

They may be mighty but for some reason they need players:

When would they have had the opportunity to play all of these clubs? Did they play Stars as well?
