Is PWSI the team with the dad who stands near the opposing team’s parents/spectators and blows the air horn throughout the game?
and the team with the parents who the ref has to repeatedly tell to get their off the field / stand at least 2 feet back from the sideline?

My kid plays for OBGC and there is no all star team.


For some ages, our rec league only enters 1 team in tournaments. The coaches invite players from different teams in the rec league to play on the tournament team. This all star team is only for the tournaments.

True enough. My U13 team beat the top PWSI rec team down at their fields and we literally heard their parents yelling at their kids about the loss as we walked back to our cars after the game.


Same experience with a PWSI dad yelling at his daughter on the way back to the car. She was 10, I think. It was awful.

That said, my kids have been playing soccer for years at multiple clubs, and PWSI has a reputation for having awful parents (not directing this at you, obviously). I’ve witnessed it firsthand and was horrified.

All that said, I don’t think going to management would do a single thing. Feel awful for the rest of the team, but you should have zero qualms about pulling your kid from that game.


I am definitely worried about the culture of PWSI. While they are the closest club to us, I am considering other clubs in the area. My kid LOVES soccer and I want him to keep loving it.




Play Rec at NVSC, it is much better than PWSI


NVSC has a huge rec program.

That’s horrible. If they don’t care about their reputation, can you try to get the refs to call things? I know a lot of the teenage refs hardly ever call anything, but the adult refs we’ve had have been better about calling things. Can the league try to get adult refs for the PWSI games?

Cool Story Bro... Not really the topic though.


The title literally says all star rec and talks about crappy teams behavior.

Don’t worry the remedial reading classes will eventually kick in for you.


You really want to lecture on reading comprehension . Your commenting on an all-star team that is selected to play in the all star tournament. This post is about a team in the regular rec season that has stacked itself to play against the other rec teams some with special needs kids on them. These are two very different scenarios. Perhaps you need the remedial comprehension.


The whole thread is about rec all stars. You’re a moron who clearly knows nothing about Rec All star tournaments like the Herndon and FPYC. You’re probably unaware because you’re too busy with your little Johnny’s games on the 3rd or 4th team travel.


It is literally NOT "My son plays rec soccer for PWSI and there is one team he plays against every year that is essentially an all star team. The coach collects the best players from other teams and puts them on his team."

I know what a rec all star tournament is. It's not what this thread is about.


Chill dude. The PP was just relating it to another leagues all star team. It’s not that far off the topic. Have you been on DCUM before? Thread topics evolve all the time. Otherwise each thread would only have a few posts. Duh


You really see no difference in different leagues all star teams playing against each other. And a special needs kid going to their rec soccer game and playing against an aggressive stacked team? They are very different.

Second this. One of the parents talked to our coach directly and explained the situation (coaches and parents—not players—of another team had a history of getting physical), the coach explained it to the rest of the team and everyone agreed to forfeit. IIRC the coach was able to find some other team to play against.
