So when we watch these games.....what teams are actually playing soccer. We watched some this weekend and yuck...bunching up.....and no passing... but did see some strong athletic kids bulldoze their way to the lead, but not pretty soccer at all. Maybe the Solar club just lets anyone coach. Some of the coaches are just glorified rec coaches with some good athletes. Please DOC of Solar help these rec coaches or take over their teams please!!! It is bringing the Solar name down.

As always, thanks Gophers. One thing, it appears Stav has split up and is no more, so they might be removed and everyone move up a notch.

I'm always a bit hesitant to pull a team based on reports of them splitting up, unless I get real, credible, first-hand knowledge that it's true. Experience also tells me that it's not unheard of for a team to split up, only to reform after a few weeks/months because many of the families haven't found better options.

Worse case, Stav will stay in the rankings list through the Spring/Summer tourney season. If you know or believe that they are no longer, you can simply bump every team below them up one spot in your mind. Once fall league season starts up, if the team does not show up signed up for any of the recognized NTX academy leagues, I will remove them from the published rankings at that time.

They will remain in the database, and the results from their past games will still be considered in the ranking calculation until such time passes that all of their results are purged from the ranking history. Their name just won't show up when I publish the rankings on the forum.
