    Looking for Summer Soccer Opportunities.

    My daughter will be home from college around mid-May. She is looking for a co-ed or women's league that plays full-field 11-v-11. The RIWSL season will be nearly over at that point, so that isn't really an option. She played WEFA last year in Cranston, but that's only 1/2 field 8-v-8. A quick spin on the net didn't reveal any other opportunities - Anyone know of anything?

    WEFA is pretty good having played that myself - wouldn't rule it out for some additional game time.

    Not sure on 11v11 sorry.

      Is this the part when a RI Reds staff member shamelessly promotes their new women's team on TS as a result of poor tryout participation?

        I found the RI Reds website after I made my original post. As the old saying goes, "opinions are like @$$holes, everyone has one." But at this point if you want a better, local, summer option for players playing NCAA soccer it looks like you will have to start your own team, because I can't find another option.

        NCAA D-I and D-II players cannot compete outside of their schools until May 10 (May 1 with a waiver from their AD). And they will all be returning to their teams by mid-August for preseason. Right now the RI Reds is the only local, 11v11, outdoor option I can find where the league is set up perfectly to slot into the time these players are available to compete without violating NCAA rules.

        So, criticize away, but if you want to be a critic that also obligates you to propose a viable local alternative. BTW - that option has to include my daughter living at home and holding down a summer job so she has money for the next school year.
