Welcome to the boards.

Can’t say I agree with your list. ECNL>NPL IMO

National League is >>>SCCL/CPL SCCL/CPL is tiered, with ‘b’ and ‘c’ teams present at various levels. You can debate where the USYSA National compares to NPL or ECNL, but SCCL/CPL is an in house league that allows member clubs to play ALL of their teams, regardless of quality. The same cannot be said for USYSA National.

Just because these local clubs choose not to go that route doesn’t diminish the quality of that league, but only the quality of whatever SC team were to enter.
