Local teams in Colorado

Posted by BEREEL on July 2, 2026, 8:55 pm

Here's where area teams are playing in Colorado. Most of this is EARNED, and it gives you a sense of team levels.

IDT is a standalone smaller tourney; Triple Crown Sparkler/Fireworks has four levels.

IDT:
Chill
Sparks
Nationals
Sparks
Southern IL Fuzion
IMG
NLL

National Power Pool (TC)
Cheetahs Connolly
IMG Moore
IMG Benett
IP Dickel

Supplemental Power Pool (TC)
WI Lightning Boydston
IP Shannon
NLL MD

Fireworks Power Pool (TC)
Chicago Cheetahs BB
Chicago Cheetahs Baer

Open (TC)
Wasco Diamonds MM
Chicago Cheetahs Folsom
Palatine Stingrays Sheridan
Chicago Cheetahs Coyner

If you're playing IDT or NPP, you're playing against the teams that will compete to win the year-end PGF or Alliance Championships. And that's where P4 coaches will be.

If you're playing in the Open division, you're playing against... high rec league.

Good luck to all the teams!

The Nationals haven't been able to field competitive teams for the last 10 years.
Most of the players on this IDT team are subs.
I'm shocked he keeps getting a spot when the organization is so bad.

I would not go that far. The team that had Lindsay Grein was competitive. Most of the Nationals teams are not very good.

Nationals are a surprising entry to IDT. Not surprised with results.

I'll be curious to see how Sparks do. They continue to get invited to this and Easton Rawlings, but their best days seem behind them.

Good for Palatine Stingrays to get out there and try their luck - their girls will be better for it. Dumb for Wasco to be playing so low, but that's basically what they've done for the past three years.

Invites and entry into events is all about who you know, very little to do with your team. Its an old boys club and always will be.

There are teams from other areas that fall into the same bucket...

High rec league is a ridiculous comment, but you're right that there are huge differences between levels.

So where is that Wasco "A team"? LOL
