Most people view rec as a casual fun activity. House league are fine for that. If you want some inter-league play then you might get stuck out in Fredicksburg. Who knows whats next? Maybe Gainsville or Rockville. Its a money trap that NCSL is not going to give up.
God you people are morons. *The community rec leagues do not have enough players at the older ages to run in-house leagues*. They might have one or two teams per multiyear age group, eg, only enough 2010 and 2011
Girls for one U14 team. Hence, they need to play other, *nearby* local leagues who also only have 1-2 teams.
Why is this so difficult for people to grasp?

Loudoun DOES do the same. They don't participate in NCSL-rec, nor does Arlington, BECAUSE THEY HAVE ENOUGH TEAMS TO HAVE AN INTERNAL LEAGUE. Some of you are complete morons.

I'm confused. This is a rec soccer program? With Volunteer coaches? Usually coaches aren't all available to practice on the same field, at the same time.
