I see there is a few new teams coming to div 3, and a few returns, how is the level of play this year and any early predictions on which teams will be fighting for the top spots?

How is the level of play? I'd suggest probably waiting until somebody in the division has actually played a game to ask that question...
My team will, of course, be sandbagging again.

I've got a feeling that 3B will be much stronger this year.
There are 2 last years div2 teams and 5 new teams which could be ready for div 2 (you never know)
3A- only 2 new teams but you have Surrey, Bari, Friends and B United, which placed 6-9 last years div 3.
Don't know how they got this but doesn't seem fair.
Predictions: Punjab, Killarney and Gastown, West Van

I would concur with Dezza that the Norvan offering in this division is really at the level of a "very capable" div2 team.
My team beat Strathcona 9-2 in a friendly at the beginning of the summer. We didn't have a full team out (typical friendly) and it was our first ever game together (brand new team)... So I wouldn't necessarily be so quick to suggest that West Van will be contenders in Div 3. I could be wrong, but they certainly won't walk it if that scoreline is anything to go by.
For what its worth 'we' are the Vancouver Greencaps. We only formed at the beginning of this year, and entered the CLASS league for the summer, which we won, beating Vancouver United in the final 2-0.
We attempted to get into the VMSL, but did not want to enter Div 3, after enquiring we realised this was the only option, and by the time we dilly-dallied making a decision, the league was full up.
We are now entering the Ultra Soccer League... which I have no idea about.
DIV 1 in the Ultra league is on par with Div 3 vmsl and Div 4 Fraser Valley
I assumed this would probably be the case. Pretty frustrating that there's nothing better without investing 2/3 seasons. We probably won't be here after the end of this season, so there wasn't really a lot of options.
Everyone says about divisions in the Ultra League, but as far as I'm aware, there's only 1 division in the winter? I have a feeling its going to be a very frustrating league to play in (a lot of one sided games).

ryansd87 - how do you think the rest of us started out? If you want to get into a higher division in the VMSL you need to talk to an established club that already has a spot there. Either way, you're still going to have to prove your team's capabilities. Have you played against any Div 2 teams? That would be a better indicator of whether you're ready for that level.
Ultra League runs 3 divisions in the summer but only 1 in winter; you get a mix of teams with varying quality. Did you look at the Burnaby League as an option?

Well both leagues had games in the evenings, but we decided that playing out in Burnaby on a Saturday night wouldn't be ideal, due to most people wanting to go out afterwards... And we weren't sure if the standard would be any better.
But you're right, its only fair that everyone should start at the bottom. I'm just being a moaner
lol
We played a load of Div 3 teams, but haven't actually played any Div 2 teams, although judging from what I have seen (of Yaletown and Bombastic) we would at least be on par with them... but obviously its completely subjective.
