Where on the ladder
Level 3 to Level 6
Each level below lists the leagues this club plays in. Your kid's level depends on the team they make. The six levels are our own reading of public league play. They are not an official ranking.
Sanctioned by Maryland State Youth Soccer Association (US Youth Soccer). The club also played in USYS NL. That league ended in July 2026 and merged into National 1, so it does not count above. The club’s site also lists Scorpion League, MDSL, SAM Select. We have not placed those leagues on the ladder, so they do not count above.

DC XI Project, every team.
Last season DC XI Project fielded 7 teams in the leagues we track: all boys, from competitive regional down to state & premier. The ladder tops out in N1/MAPL at U14.

Each dot is one team in the 2026-27 season. We place it by the league the team actually plays in, not by the club’s own team names. A tap on a dot shows that team’s league, flight and record. The dots come from published league tables, so a team playing outside those leagues will not appear here.
