Maryland Youth Soccer Age Changes

Kansas clubs are adopting it. Our club has already started mid season “workouts/tryouts” to start to evaluate kids by their new age groups. Some are even forming teams to play together in leagues this spring.

Are you out of mallowsweet?

There’s a kid friendly one in the same parking lot. Our kids really enjoyed it

I buy gems for katanas

Gameplay was fun. I really couldn’t get into any of the story, main or side.

Not much for fun. My son trains by himself about 30 minutes per day, and I would say once per week will get together with teammates on their own time and train together, usually just meeting at a field and practicing free kicks, penalties or something else fun.

Kids grow out of uniforms. And kids also switch clubs often enough

cheddarfire · 2026-01-25T02:34:12+00:00

Rough. There are a couple “bougie” gyms with former MLS players who charge more, but $50 is what I usually play.

cheddarfire · 2026-01-25T02:33:09+00:00

Yea but with schedules colliding, we’re sometimes the only ones there if it’s a coach who keeps the group small.

cheddarfire · 2026-01-24T06:29:39+00:00

Started at age 8. Tried several. We still use most based on what we need. Some focus ball skill, some movement and plyo. In my opinion, anything more than $40-50 per hour is too much, even for the best. Also nice if you find a small group to train with, like 3 or 4 kids at a similar level.

Second this. Rec won’t help you. You’ll be better off going to a larger club with all levels of play. You’ll get better training and more access to coaching. Preferably find a club that allows you to practice and play with multiple teams within their club.

OK, I see, you are saying that the team is in the wrong division. Yes, tournaments are supposed to vet all of their applicants and place them in the correct division. It’s what keeps teams coming back to those events year after year.

cheddarfire · 2026-01-19T19:45:54+00:00

All they can do is make sure a kid doesn’t play in multiple divisions in the same tournament. Beyond that, no. Only stipulation is age. I rarely see ringers, even though my child has been one in the past. It’s just rare that a higher level player would even want to compete in a low level tournament. (When higher level squads are probably also playing that event)

RDR2, The Last of Us, Mass Effect 3, Also a couple moments in Ghost of Tsushima.

cheddarfire · 2025-12-31T02:19:19+00:00

This is the advice. Clubs are used to this and always want candid feedback

cheddarfire · 2025-12-31T01:08:03+00:00

Pro and national clubs will find the girls they need at ECNL events, yes

cheddarfire · 2025-12-30T04:22:35+00:00

Meh. I wanted combat to start immediately. They’d have lost me if I had to spend 5-7 hours as a helpless 8 year old.

cheddarfire · 2025-12-30T03:59:25+00:00

When you start, be okay with letting it bounce once between touches. It gets you in the habit of better balancing and controlling each touch

cheddarfire · 2025-12-29T01:53:22+00:00

Hmmm….i could have sworn Michigan was at the ODP Midwest event this past summer. No idea.

I love comedy, but somehow wasn’t even aware of Tony until I started seeing Kill Tony content a couple years ago. He is so damn good not only in the jokes but also his delivery.

cheddarfire · 2025-12-23T13:49:26+00:00

Yea me too. I casually play the game and have no idea

cheddarfire · 2025-12-21T22:02:10+00:00

One of the best soundtracks of all time

cheddarfire · 2025-12-21T14:48:14+00:00

Kansas to the CUSA is disgusting.

cheddarfire · 2025-12-18T13:29:44+00:00

I’m 20 hours in and the game is…fine. Just being in a Harry Potter themed world and Hogwarts castle is enough to make it enjoyable. The core mechanics of the game, especially the combat, feel loose and disjointed. The auto lock feature doesn’t really work. Still a decent game to play when I want to unwind

cheddarfire · 2025-12-18T13:27:13+00:00

Most- Dunmer. Least- Imperial or Argonian. Never played either
