Thread: 5-a-side soccer in the U.S.

There are no real organized leagues... there are leagues at most colleges for students to screw around with which are 9 on 9, but finding active adult soccer leagues, 11 on 11 or otherwise is pretty rare I'd say.

Saying soccer plays 2nd is kinda inaccurate... Id say it plays more like 12th. There are lots of leagues for little kids, and high schools have soccer teams, but there are no real "futbol clubs" like you crazy asses have over there, so once most kids get to high school theyd rather play baseball, basketball, football, or something else.

soccer? whats that?

I thought pretty much every little kid in the US played soccer? besides me, I played softball. but my bro was into soccer for a few years.

played soccer as a kid people generally dont give a fuck unless our team is winning

I fucking WISH 5-a-side was popular here.

The only real organized leagues are 11 on 11, I haven't seen any 5-A-Sides at all. Pickup soccer is sorta popular here, but most people just play basketball instead.

It's sad. I'm moving to Europe.

I actually wanted to go to Brazil, for a few weeks just to play soccer

But back to your question, im from Europe too.. Nothing compares for the love of futbol, like europe, especially England. I played College Futbol here for 3 years, very competitive, but down right dangerous. Two of my own friends both tore ACL's, thankfully I always watched myself.. There really is no pick up soccer games in my city, but im sure there is in bigger cities, like NYC, or LA.
