I called the Lijsl's President Mr. A. Maresco and he actually picked up his phone around 7pm Mother's day Sunday! I was caught off guard; talk about responsive (I was expecting to leave a message). I explained what happened and he was genuinely upset and took immediate action the next day. He advised that I contact my president of my town soccer club. The next day I did, but by that time my club president as well as the offending team's president was already notified by Mr. Maresco. I'm happy that he took this incident as serious and degrading as I did and made notifications immediately. At this time there has been no notification or resolve of the issue, but I'm very pleased that LIJSL intervened so promptly and I now know that LIJSL are who they say they are. Thank you Mr. Maresco & LIJSL.
