3crazykids, I have a friend who is a girls college soccer coach in the area. I don't live in the area any more, but I will email him and see what he says.

Does location matter (ie WB vs. Scranton) or do you just want the best league/club?

johnqpublic - thanks. I looked on the NEPSA website and determined that the Scranton league plays at Weston field. Thanks again for the tip.

sp2007 - That would be great. I am willing to commute, would just like my kid to play with kids better than her so she can improve. She really loves the game. I appreciate all the help.

I noticed that your original post was looking for a soccer league "in the area", but since it's a very large area, maybe if you could name a town or be a bit more specific, you would get more suggestions.

3crazykids, my friend replied to me but he mentioned what leagues were the best, not exactly which NEPA clubs you should join to be part of the leagues. I am assuming that your daughter is older than 8 or 9 and you are asking about competition leagues not rec soccer.

He said:
"PAGS (Philadelphia Area Girls Soccer) although there are a few quality leagues for girls soccer. JAGS (Jersey Area Girls Soccer) is pretty good and has quality teams competing in it as well. Delco, Mid-Atlantic, and Lanco are strong as well so it all depends on how far you want to travel and who you want to see basically. "

I am not sure how committed you are to this, but these leagues cover most of Eastern PA, so you would have to look at their websites to see which clubs cover NEPA. Hope that helps in some way. If you need more info, I can email him again no problem.
