Power Surge just won the 10u City Championship, and Bonita Valley and Santee have very good teams as well. San Marcos Blaze I think they are called is a very good team as well. Thanks for what you are doing as it will create some excitement for the 10u's.
Cent: you are correct in that I do not have a lot of knowledge of 10U SD teams and the original list being passed around the past month or so did not have any SD teams. I do have SM Blaze on the list as #21. If there are teams that should be on the list somewhere, please post an "ADD: TEAM NAME" and your best guess where they would stand in the list (opinion) and we'll get them on the list for the first official poll next week-ish. That being said, I have only seen 2-3 SD teams in some TCS stuff and they do not come to LA based friendlies so it is difficult to gage them at the moment or know who is who. The same can be said for AV Heat, Raptors, Knockouts etc. as they only have appeared in 1-2 friendlies and at this time, hardly worth mentioning. Other teams such as "Rampage" participating in the Toys for Tots this weekend probably are not a travel team and will go back to rec. (Rampage is free to speak up and let us know your status). After the first poll the top 16 will be more solidified and we might just cut off the list at the top 20.
Thanks for you input, hopefully we'll have some fun with this and one of the purposes of this initial thread is to get more information on teams in 10U.
