    Participation in youth soccer is falling much faster than other sports. Other sports are down some as well - video games, increased cost - but soccer is down 15% in just three years. That isn't just a blip. Yes people can survive the gauntlet, especially if they're upper middle class+. But we're losing players overall and the landscape is a shi*show. It doesn't have to be this way, but as long as clubs and leagues are making money it will remain so.

    Other than tackle football, soccer biggest declining participation. Interestingly, overall sports participation by youth is relatively steady. I think it's clear and understandable why football is in decline, but less so why soccer participation is down so much.

      All you have to do is look around the turf fields and see what's taking over soccer. I'll give you a hint, the sport starts with the letter L.

      I see those players walking out of our winter indoor soccer facility in droves.

        Around here yes LAX is booming in popularity. It's growing elsewhere too but still a very small sport overall.

            Your kid won’t have a League to play in soon. At least there’s good lighting

              Actually we were too. Then we went indoors to finish up since it was on the same site. Bet you’ll be loving it out there tonight in the rain and cold. LOL.

                  Lacrosse clubs are now migrating towards the full year model. The club season used to be 6 or so weeks in the summer for college showcases. But as with everything else youth sports related, if 6 weeks is good, then 52 weeks is great!

                    Wish we could train outside tonight. 50 degrees in February. Wish we had lights

                        I wish we had coaches that didn’t have English accents.
