Also, while giving respect, where did this Sky Walkers 2028 come from? Going 4-0 and beating Eagle Stix in pool play! Then knocking off MD United East, who was having a great tourney in the bracket, before pushing Coppermine in the final. Since beating M&D toward the end of the NGLL season, they have had an impressive run.

Any insight into what changed for Sky Walkers? Did they get some new additions, or just start to click as a team? I have to say I was skeptical of the Sky Walkers homers claiming they would keep improving into the high school years on this thread. So far so good.

Skywalkers will continue to get better and keep improving. They are well coached and have the name behind them. They aren’t going anywhere.

This post adds no information to the OP's question. They had good coaching before right? What has changed since mid-April when they lost to Stars, to today when they beat MDU in a playoff by 5 goals. That's a huge leap in 2 months. What do Sky Walkers insiders attribute it to? Or if all they can say is "they have the name" and "they aren't going anywhere", maybe someone with lax IQ who has watched them can enlighten.

Anyone who knows the SW program knows they are about development in the early years. Some times it takes time for it to “click”. Looks like this team is starting to put it together just in time for the HS years. Look at the 2027 team for another example of this happening. They went from irrelevant to making the semis and listing to heros by a goal in a game of they had a real chance to win at the end.

Anyone surprised by SW success really hasn’t followed their program to understand the “why”.


Let's cut out the [Censored]. The 2027 SW team played in the B bracket of Genesis, that's why they made the playoffs.
They went 4-0 against the #95, #34 (won by a goal) #55 and #56 ranked teams.

They played a HG team that's been going non stop since March. Yes, they kept it within a goal for 22 minutes.

SW could "click" by High School, but its going to be because of roster turnover, girls developed by other clubs who come to SW for recruiting purposes.
