Has anyone heard of this league?
See BC Christian Soccer League for their website.
Their past president was heavily involved in scouting as well as being an army officer. Not sure if he's still involved, but he was a stand-up guy.
This league had teams that used to play at Eric Hamber school in the summer (several years ago). My team practiced on the adjoining field, and we used to get a lot of amusement out of teams that would have prayer circles before a game, and then go out and try to kick the snot out of each other. Brawls were not uncommon.
Again, like BNJ says, at the lower levels you get some real dodgey stuff.
Watched some games again last summer that were played at Burnaby Lake on the turf. The teams were partially coed (one or two female players per side) and had a really uneven skill level. Didn't seem to be as many nutbars any more, though.
Trece
What I heard was a criminal background check for anyone under teh age of 19? figure that one out. Anyway we lost our first game tonight. It was weird not hearing anyone swearing and having no beers after the game. I don't know how long I can take this and this is my first game.
I think we have to not worry about hitting the other team and play soccer. just a thought
Huh?
I don't recall saying anything about that............
How did you get a game in the league, Trece? I noticed there has to be criminal checks before playing?
