From what I have heard, the entity that operates US Club Lax is somehow affiliated with Dynamic Sport Management (Team 91, Leading Edge and a few others). In some cases the rankings are pretty spot on (usually top 2 or 3), but there are many instances where the rankings seem pretty biased, although some of that can be attributed to the fact that they consider strength of schedule. But I definitely agree, I wouldn't rely on those rankings for purposes of placing my kid in any particular program. [/quote]
