[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kid plays in the CCL league.  The CCL website does not update or provide much information on younger year wins or scores.  And for older groups, it does not provide scores and is not updated very frequently.  Is there another way to find out some of the scores / wins in the CCL leagues?  And no, I don't think my kid is messi, or CCL is the greatest, etc..  I just like stats and find it funny that our Rec team has better statistics than a travel league.[/quote]

LOL how stupid. Comparing Rec statistics to travel statistics. It is all relative. Virginia Tech beat East Carolina 64-17 last week. VT must be as good as the New England Patriots![/quote]

What the hell are you talking about?   Just want to know if a travel team we will be playing beat or lost to another travel team we played.  Not looking to compare Rec teams to Travel teams, just would like to have the basic information from our travel league that our Rec league provides on wins and losses and scores.   [/quote]

Ok here it is. CCL does not post scores. They just don’t. And what would comparing them prove? Read the CCL site and you would know this. Leagues in general do not post scores for U9 and U10 age groups because they don’t matter. No matter how you asked the question it was stupid to ask.

No matter WHO or WHAT you are trying to compare the scores to it is stupid to do so. [/quote]
No it's not.  You can look at a few different scores to see how competitive an upcoming match up might be. Relax!  You are the one acting stupid.[/quote]

Worrying about how competitive a 9 year old’s league soccer game is going to be is pretty stupid. [/quote]

I don't care about league play, after a few years you know which club/age groups are good.  For our age group Loudoun, SYA, Arlington, Beach FC, SOCA and Potomac are the toughest ones to play.  I do however troll gotsoccer to see who we play prior to a tournament just out of curiosity.  I never share any info with my kids though, I always tell them they should only worry about what they control which is contribute to moving the ball with the team and scoring.  Any team can loose depending on the day.[/quote]

I'm not opposed to this kind of research, but man, gotsoccer is totally useless for the younger ages.  (I can't speak for U14 and up).  In U13 boys, our club's B team is ranked ahead of its A team on gotsoccer.[/quote]

My kid's B team continually beats the A team in scrimmages...which is why the # of scrimmages we have in practice has dropped off :lol: .

I am one of those old former soccer players that hates the state of youth soccer these days.  I'm sorry, but travel Clubs are not developing players.

After a hiatus from soccer, I had quick re-entry into this crap and within a year after we gave up coaching our son and put him in the system we saw how much development he was missing being on a travel team at one of these coveted big CCL clubs.

We pulled him out and he's done a ton of individual training and moved to an Academy.  It's been a world of difference.

I kind of laugh when I hear parents chest-pound about leagues and status and teams.  It is so misinformed.[/quote]
