This must be a troll. Youth sports are dysfunctional in this area with all the strivers - but moneyball on u11 soccer is insane.

Real talk. Take the entire U11 boys cohort in this area - they all suck. Some may play organized games until 22 (ie: in college). 1 maybe 2 will have a not very impressive professional career. None will be household names. Act accordingly or look like a chump.

I care about everything my kids do and show up and support them in any and every activity they choose to participate in. We use all of it good times and bad to teach them. But never would I pretend they didn't lose or win. Do you play every board game at home ending in a tie?


No matter how many different ways you proclaim it, this has zero relevance to your need to know how other teams do.


Yes it does you see which clubs are constantly improving and who isn't. It may decide where you want to play next and where to avoid. It may show your current team where they stand and what to expect from their next opponent. Might help your team look at trends of their own and their opponents. Analytics is new to the game and is being used fro the pros down to serious club teams. As well as workload assessment I believe was talked in another thread. All of these new tools are being implemented is sports and being used younger and younger. We have a divide in youth sports between the Have fun play with friends crowd and the work hard compete to be your best crowd. Unfortunately in soccer its set up as a pay to play model where anyone willing to pay can find a place to play rather than like some other sport where you either make the team or get cut from the team.


I repeat: these are ten year olds.


Ok by that standard dont grade them in school they're only 10 year olds. no need to know if your kid passes or fails no need to test them. you dont need to know if your kid is the worst student in the class. Just hide the results til they are older.

Still only tells the how the leagues are chosen. Nothing about why they dont post the results. They should also not allow tournaments at those ages and stop being so hypocritical.


Read it more thoroughly.


Please point out where it tells why the results aren't posted. They only discuss how and why schedules are formed.


I did. It’s on page 24.


Please highlight and post Ive read page 24 no explanation why yo hide results.

Feel bad for a loss but stop trying to hide the truth. If we lost by eighty goal we lost by eighty goals dont pretend it didn't happen. Nres flash it happened.

So what? Based on that logic, why bother keeping score during games? I don't get it. Every team knows their win/loss record. Why keep it a secret?


Sure, my kid's team cares about their own scores. But last I checked, my 10yo doesn't give a flying F how Arlington Black or Loudoun Silver did or whatever.

Funny how the parents do, though.



Parents are the paying customer last time I checked.

Please stop age reference again. If they feel its too young to post results. Then shouldn't host the leagues til u12. Not the end of the world but just pointing out the major fault in their system. 90% of NCSL teams u9,u10,and u11 will participate in tournaments without the complaints of keeping score and only winners and finalist get rewarded.
