[quote=SoccerCzar]SFL is a rec league and does not allow travel players, so that option doesn't exist. For the other leagues....you are only allowed one player card per soccer organization. The two soccer organizations are US Club soccer (ECNL, ECNL-R) and US Soccer (EDP, NCSL, CCL). You are allowed to be carded on one team in each organization. For example, you can be carded with VDA's ECNL and Manassas United EDP team. However, at least last year, ECNL had a rule that only two players can be carded on another team REGARDLESS of the organization of that additional team. So for example, You can be carded with VDA and Manassas as long as you are one of the two kids on VDA doing this (kids on an ECNL team and carded on another are considered "discovery players" and you can only have two discovery players). Also, some teams play in two leagues and that's allowed no issues. For example, if your team plays NCSL and EDP (both US Soccer), that's not an issue. You are technically only rostered on one team. MLS Next has rules that I don't know.

Pros: You get more games. Possibly more competitive games.
Cons: You have more games to go to and the player has more on his plate. Also, you won't be able to make all the practices for both and, if the kid plays in games for both, that can cause so frustration with the full time players and their parents on each team.

But it seems like every situation is different and people find loopholes or just plain cheat.  Especially EDP. EDP is like the wild, wild west when it comes to rosters and, personally, I'm ok with it because, at certain levels and ages and especially for players who want to play after High School, you shouldn't care who the hell you are playing against. As a 10th grader, you shouldn't care who your opponent is.

Hope this helps a little and at least gets a conversation started for you. Good luck.[/quote]
