Did you know that the ArchRivals are the US Rookie Class team of the year? posted: Oct 8th, 2010 Two US teams are currently tied in 1st place for the honor of the busiest Rookie Class team in 2010. The regular season is over for the ArchRivals in the Midwest Skydiving League, while the Miami Dropouts have one more opportunity to get meet practice before the NSL Championship concludes the 2010 season at SkyQuest in November.
The ArchRivals will win the unofficial title of the Rookie Class season of the year, whether the Dropouts will attend another meet or not. The Miami team has scored a little bit higher and and surely deserves the same recognition, but there is one little difference that... (more)

Did you know that the ArchRivals are the most improved MWSL team? posted: Aug 17th, 2010 SDC Rhythm XP received special attention after posting a 21.2 average at last weekend's third meet of the Midwest Skydiving League 2010 season.

Did you know that there are two different leaderboards this weekend? posted: Aug 15th, 2010 The record participation at the UK Nationals 2010, with the re-match between Satori and Team Bodyflight after the first UK showdown at the World Championship of Formation Skydiving 2010, has been dominating the NSL Leaderboard this weekend.

Did you know that there is 4-way excitement in the Midwest? posted: Jul 13th, 2010 Last weekend's leaderboard is complete, as the scores from the Northern Plains have now been added. 49 teams competed, and the situation has not changed much.
