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 Eastern Pennsylvania Youth Soccer (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 US Club Soccer and US Soccer. We have not confirmed those from the bodies’ own member lists, so we do not call the club sanctioned. It also lists EDP League, US Soccer Development Academy, ECNL Boys’ competitive platform, USL League 2. We have not placed those leagues on the ladder, so they do not count above.

Where the players went next.
We counted these from public commitment lists and trackers, not from the club’s own claims.
Turned pro out of this club
The counts come from public commitment trackers, club lists, league records, player pages, and the rosters of 2,244 NCAA, NAIA and NJCAA programs. One player counts once per school. “Division unverified” means we matched the school but could not confirm the program level. We never print a current youth player’s name.
