The Rec soccer league has an opportunity to be great, once it becomes fair. Each season the 4 teams are extremely unequal, making games unfair and demoralizing. The commissioner is well organized, and cares deeply about sportsmanship, and the park is nice; however it becomes hurtful for the children on the less experienced team and impossible to grow our squad because the other three coaches easily recruit the couple experienced players we might get over to their team or they quit the league after those players get frustrated with being clobbered every game on our team. My son has played 4-5 seasons and he wont switch teams bc his Dads coach him, but in 5 seasons hes never won a game, not even had a close match; a testament to how unequal the teams are. After two years of losing by large margins with parents ringing noise-makers for goals made in a 10-0 game, my son cries on the way home every weekend because hes demoralized and finding it difficult to progress. There is one coach in the league with two teams and many experienced players request him bc they dont want to play on the losing team. Due to the imbalance between the teams we cannot build a competitive squad or keep a team together. It isnt fun to get crushed all season by the same coaches who now have recruited enough players to field two teams in one case, when we can barely get 6-7 players to show up to our games. Whats worse is if we dont have enough players, the other coaches lend us their weakest players so their experienced players get more time and beat us by even larger margins. To make things fair so players can progress and have fun, there needs to be a draft or teams randomly selected. This would also draw more participation to the league. Our players end every season frustrated making it difficult to motivate the experienced players to show up to games or come back to play with us for another season. Shout out to Tara for all her hard work and heart. She cares about the players and intervenes when she sees poor sportsmanship. She is the reason weve stayed.
