Pierz, three times over
Avon Lakers, Buckman Billygoats, Foley Lumberjacks, Fort Ripley Rebels, Nisswa Lightning, Pierz Lakers, Sobieski Skis, St. Stephen Steves.
Pierz fields the Lakers here and the Brewers and Bulldogs in the Victory C League. Three clubs from one town of about a thousand people, across two classifications, is the highest concentration in this directory by a distance.
Sobieski is named for a Polish king and its club is the Skis.
No roster is published for any of the eight.
Rosters on High Cheese update as people sign and follow a player between clubs and seasons, which for a town running three sides is the only way to see how it works.
