Question for NCSL U9 and U10 families

[Anonymous]

This may just be a U9 question but when filling out the blue card are we supposed to include the score? I thought these were non scoring ages but my away opponent was hounding me if I had it right.

Or point me to a soccer forum to ask this. I just default to DCUM because people here know everything.

Best to ask NCSL directly but I think yes, they do want to know the score.

Even though they don't publish scores or keep standings at that age I think they do try to adjust scheduling to avoid blowouts, so the scores are useful information for them to assess the relative strength of different teams.

Since U9 and U10 scores and standings are not kept, it is not necessary to report scores for these age
groups. For the Fall U11 season, when score data is used to determine division standings for the Spring
U11 season, scores will be reported to the division scorekeeper.

the league still keeps track to make evenly matched divisions for the next season

I always recorded the scores at those ages.

They don’t publish them.

How else will they know how to bracket st U 11?

For Spring of U11, they use the Fall of U11. Before then, it is not necessary to report score and as far as I know, no one does and certainly no one keeps track.
