Saw the league not very good skill level, only covers kids from south and west twin cities teams.

I don't think this is completely accurate. I believe anyone can play as long as there's room. I also think quality is decent. Is it the elite or D league? No, but that's why it exists. It was originally created mainly for seniors that didn't get into the elite league, and were no longer eligible for Elite D. It provides kids a place to play - and many have had very high skill level and made their varsity teams in the fall.

Is there any place we can see the rosters of these teams. I would love to see what teams are represented and the competition level.

I didn't know it was that big of a league... Enough competition to improve any player looking for extra games.

There are some younger/former bantam and JV kids in the league from this past winter, but overall it's solid. Is it the Elite League? Obviously not. But a lot of Varsity guys in it as well.
