CMYSA Recreational Soccer League

Before, during and at the conclusion of this years recreational soccer season CMYSA received a number of comments regarding the CMYSA summer rec soccer program. We did our best to provide good answers that were consistent with the mission of the CMYSA Recreational Soccer. Here is a brief summary of the more common questions.

  • Can we have our friends all play on the same team?
  • Why don’t we keep league standings?
  • The games should be more competitive
  • Why do the younger kids play small sided games?
  • We want all the kids from one neighborhood to play together
  • The teams aren’t even
  • The year end tournament is not fair for the better teams

Recreation League Soccer

·Teams are formed in a random draw for the purpose of creating a fair or balanced distribution of playing talent among all teams participating

·Participation and fun are the focus, not competition
