[quote=Anonymous][quote]What organization is behind this in Alexandria? Multiple weekends now, kids soccer games are hogging tennis courts all day (5+ hours). Most of the cars seem to have Maryland plates.

Don't do this, soccer parents. Find other means if your groups aren't reserving courts in an organized way.[/quote]

My son plays both futsal and tennis.  Alexandria soccer has been reserving the courts, they have a right to be there, as do the teams involved in their league.  Also, there are other tennis courts available.  My son has played at the ones near Chinquapin and the ones near Potomac Yard without incident on futsal days - in fact, often on the same days he plays futsal on other courts.

In normal times, many Alexandria futsal games are played in gyms, but they are not doing that currently due to COVID.  This is why more tennis courts are being used.  It is not the same thing to play a futsal game on a turf field, the ball will not move the same way, so the kids who are more serious about fustal cannot just shift to turf.

I would be surprised if "most" of the cars have Maryland plates, except perhaps on the particualr day you looked.   Some Maryland teams play in the league, and some Alexandria players live in Maryland, but that wouldn't account for "most" of the cars most weekends.[/quote]
