From U12 to U19-Eclipse hands down in Midwest if not nation. Next best in Midwest- Michigan Hawks, FC Milwaukee, St Louis FC, Windy City; Nationally- Southern California teams- SoCal Blue, Arsenal, Slammers; Rest of Nation: Texans.
Eclipse teams, yes in the past and maybe in the future but this past year, did not do well at regionals. Actually their teams do not do well until around 15. It will be interesting in Soccer America where they will be ranked. Next best club is either Hawks or Carmel. Windy City is not that strong, FC Wil is getting better but not near St Louis, Carmel or the Hawks. Nationally, I agree, texans are very good. Who plays the best style of soccer and not the kick and chase stuff is PDA out of New Jersey. CASL is also very good as well as Sereno out of Arizona.
