1. no it isn't if you've ever actually watched rec soccer. I used to think that until I went and actually watched some rec games and was flabbergasted by how unskilled they all were in comparison to my son's div 4 team.

2. Results should always matter. It'd keep the big clubs propping up their u-little teams as better teams then they are in check. There are so many mismatched teams in the younger ages because they let the clubs place the teams for optics instead of skill level.


If you don't want your player's team's scores posted you should not be playing on a travel team. It's supposed to be competitive even in developmental ages. clubs don't want to upset parents by 'embarrassing' them because their future pro-player's team didn't win every game and everyone can see it.


Your ignorance is loud and proud

Are they developing soccer skills or counting numbers on scoreboard?

At youth littles, ncsl etc, the better developed team without a real goalie loses many times.
The score doesn't reflect that.


This... has been an issue with my kids team(last year with a different club too)... decent offence, decent defense, worthless goalie


Worthless goalie? Sounds more like a worthless defense. Many goals are due to a lack of skill and/or judgement by the defense.


Agree. My son is a goalie and our team regularly loses 4/5-0. He can only do so much when he’s dealing with an entire game played on his side of the field, constant 1v1s and 2v1s, a defense that doesn’t cover the other team, and doesn’t clear the ball. People love to blame the goalie!

NCSL has scores from U12 up (U11 in the spring) but the teams are responsible for entering them and some are better about it than others. If the score is not entered after a while, the league chases down club reps to get them in.

Yeah, sure. Love that copy and paste there. That's as funny as the coaches who say they don't care if they win or lose. It's about the development at the game and then stand there and scream at the kids when they're losing. Scores matter so you don't have teams blowing out other teams they have no business playing. If the score is 10-0 every single person at the game knows what the score is, including the 8yo whether it's posted online or not. It's completely laughable when people try and claim that keep not posting scores is the right thing to do. Why would you want your kid not actually get development by either slaughtering other teams or getting slaughtered themselves? If anything, it makes kids quit the sport because of how lopsided the divisions are.


What is copy and paste?

I wonder how those true soccer countries who don't have league standings till around U14 manage to develop players and have decent scrimmages where kids get to work on skillsets?

(Always amusing when people who have little knowledge of youth development make strong posts that only prove their lack of knowledge)

I'm not sure how developmental it is to watch kids cry in u9 and u10 when they get steam rolled any more than helping the better team hone their skills by playing them and learning nothing. But hey, as long as the parents are happy, right? Scores definitely don't matter to anyone!

Depends on the age group. You will not see anything publicly until Spring of U11. The Clubs will know their standings in NCSL and they teams will start promotion and relegation the Spring of U11. Also, it is the responsibility of the Team Managers to input the scores in NCSL. Until they do that, the score will not be reflected for the U12 and up age groups that publish the scores. NCSL has a lot of new team managers and they often will not even input the scores until the league sends out a reminder e-mail with instructions on how to do that.
