Yes, let's get it out there. I'm a total idiot and I'm not sure if there are multiple clubs, one organization that ALL soccer goes through, or what. I didn't play sports as a kid and I know nothing about how soccer is organized. So are you saying that all youth soccer in Alexandria is organized through alexandria-soccer.org?

For that age there are a ton of clubs- are you in Alexandria proper or the Fairfax portion of Alexandria?

We are in the City of Alexandria.

I will never understand why people use this forum like it's google.

I'm not using it like Google. I'm seeking information on what organizations people use. As I stated, I don't have any awareness of whether there is one organization, or if there's many. If you don't have anything useful to add, no one is forcing you to participate in this thread.

No, it's not a troll. I've never seen a flyer at my child's school.

Um ... the kids haven’t been in school for awhile. Not sure what good a flyer in the school is doing.

Huh? You sound really paranoid. I'm the OP and my kid goes to a small private school. I've never seen an ASA flyer there, and even if I had... that wouldn't have answered all the questions I have about the options available in Alexandria.

Thanks. Both of my kids are now registered, I just went with ASA for both.

My kids has been with that club for about 5 years. We've been pleased with them. I think you will find the same. Good luck, Enjoy

Okay. Back to square one for OP.

It’s okay to be clueless about soccer everywhere in the world BUT the DCUM soccer forum. This forum is for angry parents who just barely missed a shot at pro soccer in their youth.

There is one club in the city of alexandria. You have found it. There are maybe 15 in Fairfax county who all have rec and travel programs and that’s where things get excessively complicated. Try ASA and see how you like it because that’s your easiest and closest option. For rec soccer you should never have to go further. They are a very well organized club, so if you have any questions, call their office staff and they will help you with anything you need.
