Unfortunately they dont care about kids at the competitive level. Parents on the team were allowed far to much say on the team we were on, at times directing the team over the coaches and other parents. Parents and kids were attacked by coaches on their staff behind backs after rumors were found to be false. Certain coaches berate kids at every turn with a total lack of care or responsibility for their interactions with the kids. There are better options, dont waste time with this club.

Fields are horrible no exception or excuse for a country that is in the top ten in wealth have such bad conditions. Some of the holes can cause an ankle to be torn or broken grass is dry and the fields are not level the drainage is horrible let's see what happens since we voted to have more funds go in parks. Fertilizer and miracle grow is not worth $20mil plus.

In response to "Ken rob", ccsa is an excellent organization and I believe they are now the largest Youth Soccer Organization in the state and they do great things for our youth. I have coached my daughter in the rec soccer leagues for the last 4 years and Eddy does a phenomenal job and he is correct in saying he does not have time to manager players playing time or babysit coaches.

This will be our third season, and we absolutely love it!! It is a very large association, so more lessons are learned than just basic soccer training. If you are looking for small teams, like the last reviewer was, this is not the association for you. But if you want your child to be apart of something that will teach them team work, and take them far... our found your soccer home!!

I would recommend checking out other leagues that are more player friendly. This league is poorly managed and too large for them to make fair , Instead of making more teams so the kids get more playing time they place up to 18 kids on a team as the easy way out for them and the kids only guaranteed to play 50% of the game. The coaches will play the kids they know most of the game and leave other kids sitting, They also do not rotate the kids positions fairly and play their own kids and friends on offense even if they are not good there . This should not happen on a Rec league . They bill this as
