That's your disgusting white privilege coming out. I don't have to "name 1" because it's my lived experience which you cannot begin to comprehend.


WTF. You don't need a "lived experience," you can see with your eyes whether your child's team or an opponent's team is diverse or not. We have a diverse team. Some of our opponents have not been very diverse.



Im sure almost all if not all are all American with different heritage ranging from Irish, German, Korean, el Salvadorian . Nigerian, etc.

Whole different environment, I'm sure, but in my area of the Midwest, I've seen the (mostly) white rec teams just get dominated by the Latino teams in the community. The Latino families tend to not be as wealthy and/or spend their money on travel. So, they have more talent. Plus their coaches generally know the game better than the coaches on the non-Latino rec teams. And, the kids spend way more time watching and playing soccer in their free time.

This is actually true in this area as well. Lots of smaller clubs of mostly Latino families and kids. They are considerably cheaper and tend to only have one team at each age group. They don’t advertise either, most join by word of mouth or through some connection. But they have solid teams and are competitive against bigger clubs.

Why does your rec sports league have segregated sports teams? That’s gross.

Segregated? What a bizarre assumption. All are welcome to those teams should you find them. But like other teams, they’ll take only the kids who are good, regardless of race/nationality. We’ve played many all white teams. Does that mean they are a segregated team?

There are definitely quite a few segregated teams in this area. It's disgusting.

I'm disgusted by it. There needs to be regulation imposed to reign in this abhorrent behavior. The sooner we address the elephant in the room (pun intended) and rid the world of those that do this stuff, the better off we're gonna be.

Didn’t take too long to spew out your “white” xenophobia.


“I don’t have to name 1” = I’m speaking out of my a55 and have no evidence whatsoever. LOL

The the OP- this is nothing new. If enough players show up at travel tryouts to make 5 teams the club will make 5 teams. How is this a hard concept to grasp?

A rec team that will only take good players? That’s...not a thing. Rec teams belong to leagues. Which hold drafts or assign teams.
