The Madlax Capital 2020 doesn't seem to have any of the top Maryland 2020 players who could logistically practice/play on the Madlax Capital 2020 team. Fact is many/most of these kids travel up to BL to play on the Crabs/FCA or play for other local clubs like Next Level/VLC/CB with less drama.


I think you are correct the thing that is hurting Madlax Cap. the most is the South Maryland kids are going to Next Level and FCA or other top Maryland clubs. Madlax is not getting the kids to cross the Bridge like they have in the past. So this makes my other point even more. The South Maryland kids have good to great options now. So the Nova parents need to pick a team per age group and push our best to it. If not we will never get any of our kids in the ELITE div. or top tournaments .
