NLF is not local either. They operate out of Bradenton FL. They have just expanded to the North. At least one Long Island team tried to join but were denied. With these types of groups It appears a club needs to have top teams in each year and a history of having top teams in the recruitment years to join. That seams to be the way all these groups work. Of course there is politics as with all groups so odds are teams are also denied because existing members won't allow a club in.
