After another weekend of ECNL matches I just can't believe some of yall...calm down. You know who you are. Take this lovely Monday to reflect on how embarrassing you must be for your kids.

Its just a bunch of adults huddles around a field screaming at children and refs (who are often young too). Just calm down...is your kid playing well? How about you focus on that... |

Yikes. I purposely walk down to the "other side" and listen to the whining. It keeps me in check because man is it embarrassing to hear grown a$$ people whine. |

| They need to send this video (sideline project) to the Great Falls Reston parents. This behaviour is rediculous...telling their kids to hurt other teams kids by kicking their feet off the ball! Rediculous. |

That's what growing up on an American football diet and being ignorant of soccer does to you. |

| Agree, OP. It's nuts (though I definitely would not limit that to ECNL). |

It's actually worse the lower level you get. |

Loudoun parent can’t handle losing clearly. |

| All the parents on our sideline did was die slowly under the unremitting sunlight. |

| No one here has a kid in hockey then. The worst I've ever seen on ECNL sideline is a kindergarten party compared to the weakest hockey crowd. Yes, I hope my kid is doing well, but for thousands and thousands of $ per year, never mind the time drain, I'm invested. It's very natural to yell things at the direction of the field. Don't act like you're just mute the whole game unless your team is that bad you have nothing to yell about. |

Not sure this is coming from a Loudoun parent, although it could be. These look pretty evenly matched with the exception of B09 and G08. B12 1-2 (Loudoun win) B11 2-1 (GFR win) B10 2-3 (Loudoun win) B09 5-2 (GFR win) B08 1-0 (GFR win) B07/06 0-0 G12 2-2 G11 1-0 (GFR win) G10 1-1 G09 1-1 G08 1-7 (Loudoun win) G07/06 1-1 |

We have been removed form the soccer world for a couple of seasons now and while our kid was in the thick of it the other parents used to call us anti social because we always sat away from "those parents".
Our kid even noticed it and said I don't care if you sit in the car or at home, just don't sit with them. yes the kids notice the behavior. |
