In 2022 , the NXL premiered a new youth league at the World Cup which saw the participation of 32 teams with young guns from around the globe . In 2023 , the league struggled to find an identity , but the World Cup competition would see a repeat . Mirroring the results of the previous season , it was Infamous Kidz who would dominate the tournament , sending everyone else packing and rising to the top of the podium for the second straight season .
