| FVU boys rosters are huge. Don't know why so many want to be there with such terrible coaching. |

| We are in ECNL down south and the teams are around 20. I dont know how they handle regulations for a full attendance but it seems to be the norm for team size. |

alpha bet soup. So many great kids past over because coaches don't know what they are doing on FVU. |

| 19 is probably too small for a HS age team. 22 is about right once you have all the injuries factored in. My player's team was 23. And we routinely had 3-4 out on injury every week. |

| Thats a lot of kids getting hurt. |

That’s what happens once they hit HS. The play is more rough and the bodies are growing at a rapid pace. The injuries take weeks to recover not days. |

I've noticed this happening more with basketball despite more kids around us playing soccer. I know soccer gets brutal, I had a couple of concussions in high school through college. Basketball just seemed like the least injury prone sport but its not playing out like that here. Even baseball/softball used to mean more injuries than I've seen. Its very anecdotal but has anyone else noticed less injuries in soccer than before? |

| My son's team had seven out at one time. We played the last game of the year with three goalkeepers, two on the field, to get 11 healthy kids on the field. |
