[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s on both male and female. Turns out even male players have moms and some of them are Mean Girls.
 I’ll tell you what else, I hope the parents on my new team are not cultish followers who hang out together nonstop. The parents on our last team hung out slavishly at one parents house, frequently got falling down drunk together in my opinion, took lavish vacations together other parents were not invited to, and bought matching outfits to wear the games that other parents were not included in. It was super weird. [/quote]
We had a group of 5-6 like this. It was so ridiculous and annoying. Obvious that youth soccer was their entire social outlet.

At first most of their kids started but 1by1 they were all replaced. Every time this happened the group would predictably turn on the parent who's kid wasn't starting. Eventually it happened to the ringleaders kid and the social circle fell apart.

Now 2-3 cant stand the group and sit with the rest of the parents. The leftovers of the group still try to get things going again but new parents are there to play only and dont engage on the nonsense. Also after the last blow up it doesnt seem like they trust each other.

BTW we've been with the same team since my kid was 5 (u16 now). Theres been 3 parent social circles that have come and gone through the years. Every time the blow up was spectacular. Now because all that matters is performance on the field theres no advantage to creating parent groups.[/quote]
