Boy... I have to tell you I cannot believe this question comes up over and over again.... IT IS A NAME, THAT IS IT... They could be called Florence Recreation Soccer 95 girls and as long as they win the CHALLENGE State Cup they would have a spot on the premier league.

it is meaningless to base a team's place on their name alone...Heck I could have the Red rowdies Premier team and win the American Cup (Rec Cup).

It all fals under marketing.....



I UNDERSTAND IT IS JUST A NAME. And your last line sums it up. It is for marketing only, but some of us are entitled to have the opinion that it is a little silly. Chill.

Besides, I still have not heard what division they are playing in. For most clubs/teams if they called a team Challenge, they would play in the Challenge league. If they called a team Classic they would play in the Classic league.

So, when I heard they were putting the teams into Challenge and Classic, I posted on here to confirm. Don't think it is a major offense to state an opinion and ask a question.

By the way, they don't have to win the state Challenge league to play R3PL, they only have to be in the finals. And they very well may do that. Personally, I would feel funny having my Daughter play on a team named Premier when I knew they were not in the R3PL.

It is a marketing ploy, but doesn't that some something about them and the parents they marketed to?
