Actually, if you read the whole thread (or at least the last month's worth of posts, which I grant you is a lot) everyone is almost exclusively talking about one 2015 team, and within that it seems only a few girls and their coach. Not 10yos. But the culture of the club and what it allows/overlooks has been called into question and if I had a 10yo daughter I'd pay attention and take it into consideration.


I'm sure the girls/team in question were not thugs at 10 yrs old, but the yjs do promote a very physical aggressive style which initself is not a bad thing, but the hard foul mentality to slow down offense and intimidate players is not playing within the rules of the game. I like the card trend with the refs trying to put some penelty on this style of play.
