Looks like the NY club championships are being held in CO this year. Don't see Capital/Stars or a single team from MD on the U15 schedule.
At the Northern Rise this past weekend, several coaches (from traditional powerhouse clubs) were discussing this very topic. Essentially the cost to head to Colorado was too prohibitive. Coaches were hoping it comes back to Mid-Atlantic area next year. Florida may be out of the picture due to their new helmet law.
Just airfare and hotel for 2 has to be around a grand, just to play teams from your own back yard. You could throw together a play day, get the three games in and do it for gas money and $10/kid for ref fees. Looks like US LAx couldn't even fill the 32 team slots this year.
