“The Great Lakes Conference is excited to have these clubs playing in this season’s Club vs. Club Divisions. This collection of clubs will produce a great competitive environment that will also provide an optimal setting for player development opportunities,” said Marc Frankland, league manager for the Great Lakes Conference. “We received very positive initial feedback during our shortened inaugural Club vs. Club Division competition earlier in the spring of 2020, and we’re looking forward to providing a great playing format in the coming year.”

The Midwest Regional Championship qualifiers from the Club vs. Club Divisions will join the conference’s team-based Premier I Division qualifiers at Regionals. Each of the National League’s 13 Conferences, including the Great Lakes Conference, provide a pathway for their top teams to advance to their respective Regional Championships. Conference teams also have access to the new National League Showcase Series and National League Playoffs, which each provide teams with a chance to play cross-conference matches in a national setting with increased exposure to college, professional and national team scouts.
