Looking at schedules in nep. Not unhappy my kid plays in maple. All the divisions in nep have like 4 teams from the same club. How horrible to play your own club teams in league play. We may be small but at least we never have to cheer against our own club.

You cheer for your kid's team. After 5 minutes, you forget the other team is in the same club. And you don't have to worry as much about cheap shots and unsportsmanlike play.

Did you know that in Europe the big youth leagues favor inter play over travel?
They seem to be doing ok.
Less travel means more time to actually practice/play soccer.
Unless you play at the highest level (which most kids aren't) find a club where your kid is developing and having fun. Regardless of who they play.
At the end of the day, most of us are creating memories. Not professional soccer players. Stop ruining their youth. Just let them play.

The people who think that NEP/NPL is better than MAPLE have not spent the time actually watching a suffcient number of games in both leagues. I've watched ECNL games that some MAPLE 1 teams would not be outmatched in.

Originally posted by Unregistered View PostDo you really care about the club or your kid. I could really give two poops about the club. Just provide my player the service I'm playing for and I'm happy. In fact, it's not even the team I care about very much so getting upset of cheering against another team within the club is funny. Grow up!!

What do they play over at the DA? Parents choose the club not the league the kids play. You need to stop having a complex about your league

Originally posted by Unregistered View PostOf course I care about the club. How sad that you are paying thousands of dollars to join something you don't give a **** about. We know nearly everyone and i guess that's another difference between a small club and the big ones. We're truly a family atmosphere and you play somewhere that people don't even care about their teammates.
