Did you know that SDC Rhythm XP's JaNette and Steve Lefkowitz might not have been in the sport without the Midwest Skydiving League?
posted: Aug 31st, 2012 This past Saturday Skydive Chicago hosted the fourth and final Midwest Skydiving League meet of the 2012 season. It was a beautiful morning with great jumping conditions, and six teams came to take advantage of it. Three of those teams registered for the AA Class, and they were all welcomed by a slow competition draw. The Hawks were joined by new team SDC Edge and veterans Jetstream Tango, back for their fourth season of MWSL competition. Despite a costly video problem in Round 1, Tango gave the Hawks a run for their money, but finished 2nd by three points in the weather shortened meet. Edge... (more)

Did you know that Alan Butt turns the Midwest Skydiving League over to JaNette and Steve Lefkowitz?
posted: Aug 17th, 2012 Several other meets took place in the USA last weekend, while national championships in Europe caught a lot of the NSL News attention. The leaderboard shows a total of additional 28 teams who used the synchronized competition draw. One of those meets took place at the Chicagoland Skydiving Center. Midwest Skydiving League Director Alan Butt reported that three teams returned to Chicagoland Skydiving’s new location in Rochelle, Illinois, this past Saturday for the August meet. The turnout was light, but the weather was perfect and the dropzone was very busy, he said. The Angry Birds, who... (more)

Did you know that the SDC Furies XP competed in the team's 10th MWSL season?
posted: Jul 8th, 2012 The first scores of a weekend with multiple events arrived from Chicagoland Skydiving where the teams of the Midwest Skydiving League came together for the second meet of the year. MWSL Director Alan Butt reported that this weekend's competition was part of Chicagoland Skydiving’s official Grand Opening day on Saturday in Rochelle, IL. It took place during a record heat wave in the Chicago area with a high temperature of 101 that holds the unofficial record for the hottest MWSL meet ever. However, Alan Butt said that the weather was eminently jumpable with sunny skies and a light western breeze,... (more)

Did you know that the Midwest Skydiving League had the slowest start of a 14-year history?
posted: Jun 6th, 2012 The first meet of the Midwest Skydiving League this year completed the scores on last weekend's leaderboard. Only three teams made it to the season opener at Skydive Chicago, summer home of SDC Rhythm XP, and made it the slowest start in the 14-year MWSL history. There was a player coach team with Steve Lefkowitz training on site while the meet was running, which did not not attend. Two other local teams were at Paraclete XP for a tunnel camp with JaNette Lefkowitz on the meet weekend. Six teams was the average number of MWSL participation last year, and six teams had also attended the 2011... (more)

Did you know that the Midwest Skydiving League had the toughest race in history at the last meet?
posted: Sep 13th, 2011 It seems that no meet story from the Midwest Skydiving League is complete without a weather report, and the MWSL September Meet was no exception. Saturday morning Ottawa was blanketed in the thickest fog in recent memory courtesy of the remnants of Tropical Storm Lee. The forecast was iffy at best, and the lingering fog did not allow jumping until after noon. Thanks to a bit of luck and skillful manifesting by Karry Schwartz, MWSL Director Alan Butt and his seven teams amazingly came within two loads of having all rounds completed. Once again most of the MWSL teams competed in the AA Class.... (more)

Did you know that the Archrivals posted their first 2-digit score?
posted: Aug 31st, 2011 Four teams returned to Chicagoland Skydiving’s new location in Rochelle, Illinois, this past Saturday for the 3rd meet of the Midwest Skydiving League 2011. As with the last meet, MWSL Director Alan Butt could report terrific weather, a rarity this Midwest summer, especially on weekends. "The teams were again concentrated in just two classes: AA and A. The Angry Birds, who won in their category at the first two meets, were joined by SDC Jetstream Tango and SDC Flying Fish. It was a very close meet, somewhat influenced by video busts. But the Birds won their third straight meet with a total... (more)
