    10 PALM BEACH NOMADS 96/97 BOYS RED
    Pinecrest is probably between 10-12 in my book. Palm Beach is 15-20. Boca certainly not #1. West Pines is not top 10. FC Florida should be in top 10. No clear #1 for sure.

          That is exactly why rankings are a joke. Nomads are not even close to being the 10th the best team in the state. Playing 2nd level teams, when they step up in competition they struggle, ie Disney

            Rankings are a joke when teams that lost a majority of starters and are getting trounced in PLE/ NPL - Boca, or that haven't won any events - Pinecrest RM - are ranked as high because they are receiving last years point for the same league,

              The ranking are definitely not up to par, and Nomads might not be actual number ten, but they have beat//tied many of the top 20 ranked {Disney: tie to PDA, lost to Dynamo by 1, and then clueless coaches decide to play bench (for experience and a win didn't matter) in third game; consequently, lost 4-0 to Rush}. However, beat Auburndale Scream last year in State Cup, beat Orlando City, Beat FC in Palm Beach Cup because FC didn't even make it out of it's bracket. They have hung with some of the big-boys in spite of poor coaching decisions, so don't through them under the bus!

                wow, just looked up FC, and what has been going on? No points on the board for Disney; didn't even move out of bracket, No points for anything but 7th in Region III out of 10, and severe beat down in early summer out of state??

                  The gotsoccer ranking are a joke. Toros received more points for the Weston Cup that is a weekend tournament than Space Coast received for winning State Cup. Pleeeaase!!! A Tournament that takes 3 months to complete gets less points than a local BS Tournament.

                    How are the points for tournaments decided? Not just Weston Cup, but there was one a few years ago that took a team from not even ranked to top 15, for beating teams ranked even lower than them.
                    Statel Cup and FSPL should get deserved points, but tournaments like Disney and CASL with Nationally ranked teams should too. It would seem someone should look.at the competition before points are decided, but that is not how it goes.

                      Pinecrest & Boca, West Pines are receiving point from this years PLE/R3PL and last years after they lose those points they will drop like a rock.

                        Supposedly the #of teams in tournament, the level of the tournament Platinum,Gold,Silver,and so on.
                        But more tournaments become diluted because people skew the #'s to make their tournament look so great. Like Adidas Cup, or Bazooka Cup Rec tournament that gives points
                        The two teams that finished 1st (SCU) & 2nd(IMG) at State cup and beat 50 some odd teams don't even play in FSPL OR FYSA. So to award points to teams in FSPL/ PLE/ R3pl is a joke.

                          Are those two teams playing in any above listed (FSPL, PLE, R3pl)? If not why, if so, are they now being judged against a tougher bracket of competition, and with a broader band of competition, maybe working hard and not getting the placement?

                            I agree with this comment. State Cup is much tougher to win than Weston. The only defense of the Weston Cup was that it had Boca, Real Madrid, Toros, Miramar, and West Pines. Certainly good competition.

                            I think the same occurs in tournaments up in northern Florida.

                              In State Cup all of those south FL played (WP expelled) and only made it to semi finals.
                              State Cup had 30 more teams than Weston Cup. Those teams from FSPL/PLE are receiving points from last years leagues it is dated 8/1/2013. This year Boca and Pinecrest, FC Florida are really league 2 of FSPL.

                                So what is your point? Space Coast had a nice run and that is it from where I stand. No disrespect. They certainly haven't won 2 titles like Pinecrest/RM and made it to 4 straight semifinals in the process. RM lost to Boca last year in State Cup and tied SC in 2nd round I believe.

                                To say Boca and Pinecrest are Division 2 quality is crazy.

                                I feel that northern Florida teams get "easy points" by playing in tournaments that no good South Florida teams attend.
