If you want balanced out teams then go to rec soccer. But to whine about kids being challenged against a superior opponent is laughable.[/quote]

So why are there divisions and flights and a and b and c teams, etc.? Why even have teams? Why have DA and ECNL?  Why even have tryouts and rosters? Just let the best players and only the best players play every game in every league and every tournament. Screw the less talented players. They suck anyhow according to you, right? [/quote]

You seem to think sports are designed for fairness[/quote]

No, but divisions and team levels are designed exactly for that, else they wouldn’t exist. Not sure what you think fair means, but it does not mean equal.  It means relatively at the same level of competition within a range. Yes, it is good to challenge kids. Not sure stacking the opponent is the best way to accomplish that goal, but agree to disagree. [/quote]

The point is, at these young ages they really don’t exist. There is not enough history to do so. Scores are not even recorded in league play at these ages.  [/quote]

They do exist.  Maybe not in NCSL, but in other leagues and in EVERY tournament they do.[/quote]

Divisions are not designed for fairness, they are designed to put teams of roughly the same level together. Because teams don’t like to play against other teams that crush them or teams that are too easy. Otherwise there would only be one division and if you weren’t good enough to make the top level you wouldn’t play.[/quote]
