Where on the ladder
Level 5
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 Alabama Soccer Association (US Youth Soccer). The club’s site also lists US Club Soccer and Arizona Soccer Association. We have not confirmed those from the bodies’ own member lists, so we do not call the club sanctioned. It also lists NextGen League, ASA State League, UPSL Division 1, United Premier Soccer League, Women's Premier Soccer League, UPSL Premier. We have not placed those leagues on the ladder, so they do not count above.
