Where on the ladder
Level 5 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 New Jersey Youth Soccer (US Youth Soccer). The club’s site also lists Suburban League, Suburban Essex League. We have not placed those leagues on the ladder, so they do not count above.
See how the whole ladder worksFrom the league tables
Glen Ridge Athletic Association, every team.
Last season Glen Ridge Athletic Association fielded 12 teams in the leagues we track: 8 boys and 4 girls, all at travel / select. The ladder tops out in NCSA from U8 up.
| lvl | U8 | U9 | U10 | U11 | U12 | U13 | U14 | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| flights A–C | ||||||||
| flights D–F | ||||||||
| flights G+ / extra teams |
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.
Check the tables yourself
The NCSA standings page has a division dropdown, and picking a division shows every team's record. The 'Schedules/Results' menu also looks up a single club.
