Maybe I wasn't clear:

Someone seemed to be suggesting that the Bridge "U-16" Academy team beat the CASL U-16 team that beat Chelsea and won the Disney Showcase this year. My point was that the CASL U-16 team that played in the Showcase was a true U-16 (August, 1 1991 - July 31, 1992). The Bridge Academy team is composed of kids born anytime in 1991 or 1992 (possibly younger, but no older). It is my belief that the CASL Academy team is their "regular" U-16 team. I also believe that Bridge's Academy team has a number of U-17 players. That's all. Beating CASL is a fine thing to do. I simply think we should be honest about the fact that an Academy U-16 team is not the same as a USYS U-16 team. No biggie.
